He admitted that he could not beat Pernell, that was the most humble I have ever seen him, I was pleasantly surprised, a Mosley fight prime on prime would lean toward a UD for Mosley but it would have been close.
Are you sure he seriously admitted that? I can't imagine Floyd seriously stating that he couldn't beat Pernell Whittaker, thats like Roy Jones admitting that he dodged Nigel Benn years ago because he was too good!

I'd fancy Floyd to beat Pernell, and I'm absolutely 100% for sure certain that Floyd thinks he would have!

The only fighter I can ever see Floyd publicly claiming he would have struggled against is his uncle Roger, and that would be some sort of family loyalty mock-humility crap :P
Im not so sure. I do remember Floyd saying that about Whittaker, he has mentioned him several other times and always simply as a great fighter.. Whittaker was unreal in his prime, I think he could beat FLoyd. Im sure Roger has told him the same, though Floyd is much better than his uncle, Sweet P just humiliated him.
