    Benitez is a welter, Floyd isn't.

    Its harder to land clean hots on Floyd who blocks, rolls, and parries just as much as he would slip or dodge.

    Benitez is better at slipping and dodging but not by a large margin.

    I think Floyd is the harder of the two to land anything effective on consistently....for 12 rounds.

    Floyd sits in the pocket, rolls and blocks a lot of shots. Wilfredo made you flat out miss

    Benitez fought top-notch competition and survived while even when losing clearly showed he was a slick boxer.

    But Floyd doesn't just slip around, he bloc, parries and many other things.

    Floyd takes it.

    But not by much.

    And I'm Puerto Rican so, eh.

    good question. not sure if i can say honestly. i guess i'll say benitez is more adepts at slipping punches and making opponents miss completely. So yeah i guess he's more elusive. but mayweather's defense is still better being that it's much more versatile and less riskey as well.
