Career accomplishments of Pernell Whitaker

[Steak]

Overrated.

not the response I imagined.

did you read it, by any chance?

[Wild Blue Yonda]

Found this list on another site. I don't agree with the entire order, but its a great reference.

1 Pernell Whitaker
2 Marvin Hagler
3 Vicente Saldivar
4 Tiger Flowers
5 Lew Tendler
6 Flash Elorde
7 Duilio Loi
8 Khaosai Galaxy
9 Freddie Miller
10 Daniel Zaragoza
11 Young Corbett III
12 Laszlo Papp
13 Hector Camacho
14 Ayub Kalule
15 Cornelius Boza-Edwards
16 Horacio Accavallo
17 George KO Chaney
18 Naseem Hamed
19 Winky Wright
20 Yoko Gushiken
21 Bazooka Limon
22 Johnny Wilson
23 Marvin Johnson
24 Jimmy Carruthers
25 Henry Maske

My presumption is this list must be relatively old, as Pacquiao is not included & would surely be a shoo-in. I don't know when it was made, but it has some nice mentions (Carruthers, & the always-underrated Tendler). Though unpopular, I think I would have Joel Casamayor above Hamed.

Maybe because hes active?

Whitaker IMO the greatest southpaw of all time and for me is not even close.

I think it's debatable who's #2 between Hagler and Pac.

[lazy]

Top 5 anyway.

I agree, maybe even top 3.

[bojangles1987]

Definitely the best southpaw I ever saw.

[gattiwarrior]

being the greatest southpaw is an excellent shout , also to the guy that posted whitaker , hagler and pacquaio. Thats another great shout. The 3 of them are all time greats.

whitaker vs pacquaio would be a classic

I love watching Pac fight and couldn't stand watching Pea, but I think Whitaker eats him up and makes him look REALLY bad.

[gattiwarrior]

what makes a pacman vs whitaker fight more interesting is that whitaker had a very good workrate.

i still take whitaker on points 116-112

but the lack of workrate by mayweather is the reason i think the pacman wins , the fight should have taken place 18months ago both are now slightly past their prime
