"Pernell is a guy who doesn't give out a lot of compliments. He didn't want to say anything about another fighter, because he didn't like the idea of anyone upstaging him. But I remember him saying to me, 'Man, this kid is good right now.' He said to Floyd, 'You stay with this and you remain dedicated, ain't nobody going to touch you.'

Whitaker n Floyd have different styles.Floyd style is highly functional, utterly crisp/sharp, with a wonderful punching technique, top level shoulder rolling, parrying, or even simple ducking and swaying when he gets comfortable. He mostly doesn't move more than he needs to, and he has quite a professional but simple potent approach in the ring. He likes to save energy, With quick, economical motions, it's business like and he breaks people down bit by bit, like a surgeon. His style Is actually very old, he likes to play chess with his opponents. He like Hopkins, they get opponents to fight at their pace, because of this their style is more Robotic looking, Floyd style is about taking low risk as possible, it's like a business man, He's like BILL GATES, it's more business than fighting. His style is like the art of war, in basket ball he'll be like Kwai Lenard and Tim Duncan. Not flashy guys but they are very economical in their play. His approach is logical like Gene Roddenberry.fun

One thing I can always say about Floyd is that his success was generated by his hunger for personal gain and recognition. He also spoke about his Mother needing money for bills and the sacrifices he made plus the danger he put himself in to get where he is today. A lot of ppl thinks he’s selfish and I’m not saying I know him personally but I don’t believe that for a second. The man simply worked his ass off for everything he has and his drive for success is still showcased well after his retirement from the sport #FLOYDMAYWEATHERISTHEGOAT

He drives me nuts lol but all respect for what he has become to where he came from. “Self Made”.

How refreshing to see Floyd actually talking honestly about stuff and properly answering questions instead of playing up to the camera. Fascinating to hear this kind of stuff. Perhaps he is finally growing up!

I don't believe that Whitaker was "easy work" for Floyd. That is one of the most ridiculous things I have ever heard.

@@davidjamisonnmmeto603 I'm not a Floyd fan, but I do respect what he said and how he said it here. I just wouldn't think that one of the greatest fighters to do it would be "easy work" for him is all. I consider Chavez to be superior to Floyd on the scale of greats and Whitaker beat the breaks off him and then was given a ridiculous draw out of it.

you gotta remember, no one moves as much as floyd. or has the stamina Floyd is better than you downplay him to be...trust me on that.

@@shmokey59 1 plenty of boxers have moved more than Floyd in the ring and 2 there are plenty of boxers with heavier output than Floyd, he is just more efficient with his punches. You honestly think that Pernell Whitaker, the man who was robbed on 3 out of his 4 loses and beat a prime Chavez was outclassed by Floyd? Give me a break man

The interviewer ruined the interview by saying, "I heard it was easy work for you" because Floyd was about to explain what the sparring session was like, which is what we were all waiting to hear, but when dude said that, Floyd had no choice but to respond with "I always respect a champion" and that was it, nothing about the sparring.

according to the interview, it was around 94 when mayweather was 17. no way in HELL did a 17 just have his way with whitaker in 94. they can tell that shit to someone that doesn't know any better.
