    You thought Oscar won the 12th why? Because of the flurry with 15 seconds left? You ignore the 2 minute 45 second domination before then?

    No excuse necessary. Mayweather defeated Castillo in a rematch decisively. Erasing all doubt.

    Oscar would still lose to Mayweather in his prime. He's always faded down the stretch. He couldnt close out Mosley, he couldnt close out Tito. What makes you think he could close out Floyd?

    Sweet Pea V mayweather is a toss up. I favor Floyd because he's my favorite fighter. But it could go either way. Love to have seen it though.

    Yeah i would love to see that too....but like i said he cant take on prime...oscar,mosley,tito and sweat pea....mayweather is a very good
    fighter but im telling you if oscar almost beat him and this guy fights once every 15 months how the hell do you explain mayweather being able to beat him in his prime? i dont understand you reasoning....maybe you should get of mayweather nust....sweat pea would beat him and it would be very close you could say if they fight several time it would be something like 5-2
    whittaker.....i seen all these dudes fight and several times each fight....

    how can you say that???

    floyd never fought near the same compition so how do we know if he would of remained undefeated. if sweet pea cherry picked all of his oppenents then he never wouldve lost a round let alone a fight

    If floyd fought the best there was to fight or at least most of the best he could fight then he would not have a perfect record.....no ****en way....
    Dont compare him to the greats.....look at his resume.....

    nOT That great.....but good i would say to be top 50

    I dont think Oscar almost beat him. I scored it 8-4. With Mayweather sweeping the last 4-5 rounds.

    Also Mayweather was fighting in his 5th weight class, Mayweather is far more mobile in the lower weight classes where theoritically this fight would have taken place.

    Again, me choosing Floyd has nothing to do with Oscar's abilities. But more to do with Oscars lack of stamina throughout his entire career.

    Mayweathers resume from 130-140 is easily comparable to that of Sweet Pea's. Sweet Pea just has a few more bigger names then Floyd. If Floyd fought Cotto and maybe Margarito, I'd say their resume's would be near even. In reality, while Floyds competition has been somewhat sparce, if you consider beating a current P4P top 10 fighter and winning a belt in his 5th weight class sparce, his resume from 130-135 is impeccable. If you take the whole body of work, its not fair to say Mayweather cherry picked, its what is happening with Margarito now, when fighters reach the top, legacy isnt as important anymore as security.

    I don't really remember what I had in mind back in the day but I can imagine I was kinda pissed at Floyd for some reason :good

    After this one, I think another "Whitaker vs Mayweather Jr.: Who wins?" thread will pop up.

    It is something like a tradition on ESB.

    Floyd is lucky to be carrying Peas bags. I cant stand Whittaker but damn no way Floyd beats him. Floyd biggest win is a past prime DLH, a past prime Pea got robbed against DLH
