    It's so much BS.

    You'd think that people would realise that it is not possible within the rules of boxing.

    Whitaker had more variety of defensive moves.

    De La Hoya won two rounds against Whitaker, and Calzaghe was a better defensive fighter than Pep. Your making a complete fool of yourself.

    China_hand_joe. Next you will be telling us all Tyson would have outboxed Ali, and Primo Carnera was the greatest heavyweight of all time.

    It would be amusing to punch Burt Sugar one day and claim you didn't throw a punch -fullstop-

    Mayweather outlanded him, with cleaner, more powerful punches in all but two rounds -fullstop- Showing superior ring general ship, standing in front of Oscar, evading and picking him off -fullstop- I don't score rounds to Oscar for being less bad than he had been in the other rounds -fullstop- So often the loser gets scored sympathy rounds like that -fullstop-

    I think it did happen when he fought a guy named Graves, made a total ****** out of the guy. He did made that fighter falling all over himself missing punches for 3 minutes. Defense is part of the judging.Willie Pep was that kind of guy who could do it.:deal

    Go and watch the fight again and score each round on it's own merits, not in the context of the fight -fullstop-

    if pep really won a round without throwing a punch, then it sounds like his opponent (who still remains nameless up to this day) got robbed of a round.
