    I wasnt gonna say power. But I disagree on the inside fighting and workrate, workrate was pretty equal & Money is a better inside fighter than Pernell. And yes Whittaker has that good jab but Mayweather has that right lead. Maybe Floyd does have a slight edge in power, but this fight wouldnt matter about power, this would be a chess match.

    How can you pick Mayweather to beat anyone when Jose Luis Castillo gave him the fight of his life and beat him? :?

    Amen.

    Some of his knockouts were flat out brutal, like 'old time' stoppages.

    Yeah, with one arm, and PBF still pulled out a close victory

    Mayweather was definitely NOT the better in-fighter. He'd turn on the jets and stay on the move against the best he faced in that regard. After feeling Castillo's rough and tumble inside tactics he wanted no part in the rematch, whereas Pea beat Castillo's mentor at his own game. Pea definitely proved his worth and skills more on the inside against guys like Chavez, McGirt, Brazier, Jones, Mayweather, etc.

    Yeah, I can't imagine Floyd even stealing a Draw against Chavez, whereas Chavez stole a draw against Pea!!!

    Given the fighters involved and the stature of the fight, one of the worst of all time. I honestly think, the last time I scored it.......I think I might've had it something like only two or three rounds to Chavez. I'd be intrigued as to what other people had.

    Dude you shouldn't bother. This is the same guy who picked Mayweather over hearns to quote "You got a guy whos quicker, smarter and slicker. I could see Mayweather outboxing the guy and winning by UD" :patsch

    hahahah....would actually be Hearns by savage K.O within five rounds IMO. At 147 Hearns is a nightmare for Floyd....the height/reach/power of Williams would also be a nightmare IMO, talking with todays boxers.

    Did I say that? Just saying that those are tools that would bother Floyd.

    it would deffo be a closer affair at 140 would sweat pea would take it, any lower in weight would lead to a more classier win for sweat pea, a complete master

    Nope, but Im making it clear to everyone who says PBF fighting Hearns would be similar to him fighting Williams.
