In his prime, could pernell whittaker routed floyd mayweather jr?
Question:it's just something that popped out on my mind, since whittaker matches/matched mayweather jr's elusiveness and deterrent technique. not to mention he was rushed and a southpaw.
Answers:
Whitaker was a better warrior overall. He made hall of distinction fighters look ridiculous. Who does Floyd have on his story that can compare with the like of JC Chavez or Azumah Nelson? Whitaker soundly thrashed Floyd's uncle Roger, too.
Floyd would put up a great fight, but Whitaker's piston-like southpaw prod would find his face near suprising regularity and never allow him to get set. It would be a boring protective struggle with Whitaker champion by decision.
tough beckon. personally i deduce it would be a yawner of a bout. Whittaker lacks punching power so i would say may weather could stride him down in 8 or 9 rounds. speed erudite there equal for the most piece and may weather doesn't use his jab anyway so self say may weather contained by 11 rounds or may weather in a result.
It'd probably be close, but I have to dispense it to Mayweather.
Wow we actually used to enjoy matchups like this huh? What happen to boxing? (rhetorical)
Are you nuts? Fraud didn't even beat De la Hoya! The bench gave him the scuffle! Whitaker would take Fraud to university and win an easy finding.
That would be a sweet fight. I deduce Mayweather's got the quicker foot speed, but Whittaker have the better head movement. Whittaker would exchange blows well next to his back against the ropes, but Mayweather would woop Whittaker surrounded by the middle of the ring. Oh yea, and DLH won the fight.
Only noobs who know zilch about boxing would read out Mayweather beats the great Sweet Pea. Pea have the perfect style to measure Mayweather's ***.
Mayweather is a counter-puncher who doesn't throw a lot, Pea have one of the highest workrates ever surrounded by his prime. Therefore he throws more and lands more, and the usual shots that Floyd lands off counter-punching wouldn't be landing nearly as habitually as usual against arguably the best defensive warrior ever.
Whitaker was track better on the inside and in the middle of the ring. Whitaker could stand surrounded by front of you and box your ears off, making you miss an look foolish while he land shots of his own, Mayweather is a pot-shotter and runs too much. Whitaker stayed in front of you and fired bad combos while still making you miss, Floyd hits you and runs.
Whitaker wins this exchange blows by his workrate. He throws more, lands more, brings the fight to Floyd, and that awesome push keeps Floyd past its sell-by date all hours of darkness, as Floyd has have problems with a devout jab. Floyd is a counter-puncher who's style wouldn't look so right against the best defensive gunfighter ever.
Simply put, Floyd gets taken to university. This would be a gem because we would see him getting outboxed for once. Whitaker by widespread UD, either 8-4 or even 9-3.
I get several fights to mention: Whitaker vs Ramirez I and Whitaker vs Nelson both of those fracas Sweet Pea was at his greatness and get robbed out of one of those fights. Sweet Peas thrust will keep Floyd at sound. Judah kept Floyd at bay near his southpaw jab contained by the early rounds contained by their fight, so I will see Whitaker next to the same benefit, but never wearing down.
Sweet Pea UD in 12..
Sweet Pea would win hand down
Wow, I am surprised at the lack of boxing know-how from posters on this question. I be lucky enough to own seen both of these fighters surrounded by their primes and Pernell was nowhere close at hand as fast as Floyd Jr. Sweet Pea be very equivocal and a very tricky southpaw style but he be more of a Winky Wright type fighter who be mostly defense and not too much offense besides a jab and occasional popping straight disappeared. Floyd Jr. can do it all. By the road, Mayweather haters, get over it, Floyd won that scuffle easily finishing weekend. You score points for verbs punching, sound defense, ring generalship, and powerful agressiveness. Unfortunately DLH had none of these things later weekend. Mayweather had them adjectives. You guys are too biased to admit to it but within boxing you have to be capable of be impartial contained by order to be celebration about how a disagree is scored and not be too stimulating. Mayweather is an arrogant ignorant cocky go into spasm but as a boxer he has no peer, Whitaker included. Mayweather would win this barney probably 7 rds to 5 and much better power punching connects.
Sweet pea by UD
Sweet pea was an underated body puncher and that's what it take to beat floyd.
I feel Whittaker would have pummeled Mayweather.
Mayweather isn't nearly the opponent that Sweet Pea was contained by his prime. Pernell was quicker, and stronger.
Jack Dempsey vs Joe Frazier. Who win?
Answers:
The Manassa Mauler vs. Smokin' Joe. Imagine the gate for this m¨ºl¨¦e! It would be incredible. Both guys styles were similar alot of upper body movement constantly stalking their opponent, both had a virtuous chins(although both had be knocked down within their careers). Where Dempsey had the farthest point was he could throw devastating punches near each foot, Joe was agreed as being a departed hooker. I think both men would hold your attention huge amounts of punishment and the fight would step the distance with Dempsey leading a unanimous decision.
Neither...they both stink
Boith are complicated sluggers. Difficult call.
Dempsey, but it will be a split edict.
jack dempsey back next it was unprotected knuckle not 15 rounds neither till your *** couldnt swing anymore.
Dempsey... he had the stamina to hold a punch... I love Frazier... but Dempsey just couldn't be moved.
I'd say-so Frazier (at his best) would have the crest over Dempsey. Dempsey wouldn't fight African American fighters so that tell me his heart wasn't that strong.
I would say the audience on that one. Wow! What a spar that would be. I bet they'd go adjectives the rounds and the judges would own to decide.
Jack for sure :)
Frazier wouldn't closing past the 5th round. Dempsey would verbs frazier, because we all know Frazier a short time ago stands there and take a punch.
I can see a fight trilogy here, much close to Frazier/Ali. Both big punchers. I see Dempsey winning two of the three. All fight go the distance. Dempsey win two by unanimous decision, Frazier win one by split decision.
Joe Frazier would win by tko on slowly rounds. He could fight adjectives night long and have beaten the best of his equals. He's a very skilled boxer that can occupy punishment.
Joe Frazier
They were both particularly aggressive, always going forward type fighters. They weren't that thickset either of them. Frazier I believe could absorb the big punches that Dempsey would fire and by impossible to tell apart token I think Jack be pretty tough too. I would go for Joe Frazier holding the crest over Jack Dempsey but only only. They both had a tough child hood and be very brave men so it would be close.
Dempsey - W 65 (KO's 50) TF 82 - W pct 80% - KO pct 61% - win over J.Williard and L. Firpo - KO'ed Fireman Jim Flynn - 7th greatest puncher of all-time - 16 greatest fighter of all-time.
Later become a referee
*** To adjectives you Ali haters, it is alleged that Dempsey was a draft dodger within WW1 (he hid out on the docks).
Frazier - W 32 (KO's 27) TF 37 - W pct 86% - KO pct 73% - win over Bonavena, Quarry{2} Ali, Foster and Ellis[2] - KO'ed by Ali and Foreman[2] - 29th greatest puncher of all-time - 42th greatest fighter of all-time - 1964 Olympic Hwy wt gold ingots
His fight trilogy next to Ali may be the best in history
He should enjoy had more fight.
Every thing around Dempsey says that he be a better fighter than Frazier. I cogitate Dempsey's lack of experience near black fighters would hurt him. Frazier by a majority decision.
Joe Frazier
Who think tyson be simply a punk next to a rugged punch but no gameplan?
Answers:
Tyson was a short time ago a puncher... late surrounded by his career. But surrounded by his prime Tyson went into every clash extremely prepared and not only tricky punching like most family think, but he be lightning quick. He have the speed of Ali and the punch of Frazier. He was one of the greatest fighters of adjectives time in his prime.
No spectator sport plan, and doesn't listen to his trainers either. What a loser, i used to close to him as a fighter.
I ponder Mike Tyson was a great immense weight soldier,he was a organic with awesome rapid seed and knock out power.
As for his following antics and how he is now I prefure not to comment.
If you can view some of his old fight, you'll see a Tyson who was complex to hit with a punch. His protecting skills tend to be ignored, but he be a pretty complete fighter once.
Mike is still a punk. He'll never grow up. And presently he's a has be that few people respect...
No, but I surmise you are a punk, and you think you know everything just about boxing
If Tyson hadn't messed up his life he would enjoy been the greatest heavyweight EVER. Too unpromising.
He was not ever a Punk. But, he be a terrific KNOCK OUT ARTIST!
After he went 2 prison yes but When Cus d'amato be alive he was the greatest boxer ever speed and power that be never seen surrounded by the heavyweight class before
Before he signed on near Don King, Mike Tyson was a devastating puncher who be also a student of the game. Cus D'Amato and Jimmy Jacobs protected Tyson and kept him focused on nought but boxing. He was a flawless defensive enemy when he was next to them. However, when they died, the fact that they prepared Tyson for nil but boxing was the fighter's undoing. He signed near King, he married Robin Givens and he then wound up near an entourage. His original trainer/management squad prepared to be a champion surrounded by the ring but he was woefully unprepared for go outside of it. He was great, but once he signed beside King, Mike Tyson was zilch but a sideshow.
Tyson was a slugger not a true boxer per se Tyson would not stick and move but deliver an awesome punch. donate 'em his props as a slugger one of the best.
Who is to Basketball what Don King is Boxing, please.?
Answers:
The Emperor Cheney and his dark apprentice Lord George W. Bush control adjectives with the Republican side force. And it's up to the Lakers and the NBA alliance to stop them from total control, until that time Halliburton can build... The Death Stadium!
David Stern?
The closest would probably be Mark Cuban, owner of the Dallas Mavericks
Ben Wallace in 20 years. If he keep the fro.
I agree with Michael. Cuban seem to have be fined by the league but continues to criticize the referees
Well its tough to influence because Don King is a boxing promoter, where within basketball no-one really promotes basketball games, except of course the commissioner David Stern, who have been the source of the most modern critics accusing him of asserting a uniform on the players and changing the bits and pieces of the ball.
phil jackson for sure in attendance both like a darth vader type dynasty senior officer, iin baseball it was tommy lasorda theres other one of these guys who are a little cocky but everyone loves them and they are for a while mysterious and are unstopable when its championship time.
