I know pernell is the greater fighter and faired much much better against jcc than poor meldrick did, but how do you think this fight would pan out if they both fought at 140 and at their prime. Although this seems like a no-brainer, you can't ignore that taylor had slightly faster hand-speed and this could be a big factor for him when facing a feather-fisted fighter like pernell. So what are your thoughts?

Pernell is too smart and too slick for Meldrick. Whitaker outboxes Meldrick to a comfortable UD.

Whitaker outboxes Meldrick

Although Taylor had slightly faster hands, I believe that Sweet Pea would have taken the decision. Pernell was too skilled defensively.

Why do you keep spamming?

As far as this subject goes, I'll pick Whitaker.

I think Taylor takes it. Taylor was BETTER then Whitaker in his prime. Taylor had faster hands and BIG punches for Sweet Pea. Whitaker got hit too much when he fought Nelson...Taylor would floor Whitaker and get a decision. I just think Taylor is too big for Whitaker.

Whitaker would decision Taylor.Too much Science for Meldrick.
