    Whitaker had solid power to the body. He put a few guys down with body punches. Rafael Pinada was one of them. Overall though Floyd has the edge.

    Don’t shoot the messenger but I assure you he hits like a truck when he’s trying to / can or is healthy enough to, I don’t jive with Mayweather but it’s a fact in my canon.

    “Power” ain’t all that relevant to the body it is all placement.

    Mayweather wields by far the more political power of the two.

    Hope this helps.

    Neither of these men were huge punchers. But, Floyd went 10 years without a KO. And, he never had a one punch KO like the Whitaker-Nazario one.

    The result is most relevant. The opponent goes down.
