I could see it now. All Sweet Pea does is run. Pernell hits like a girl. Pernell isn't a good offensive fighter. How can he win fights fighting on the back foot? He's a boring counter puncher that isn't aggressive. Lol so many people don't appreciate what boxing really is. What a shame!

Can you imagine what people would say about Pernell Whitaker if he fought today?

And people don't appreciate boxing because they don't like his style? pa-lease! Boxing is a sport Of endless styles! His style does not represent boxing

Only Floyd Mayweather would be able to beat him. Boxers like Cotto, pacuiao, Hatton...they woulda got schooled and embarrased by Sweet Pea. He basically beat De La Hoya back in 96. Mosley is another guy that would been easy work for prime pea. Guys like Ortiz, Berto, zab judah, khan, whoever.
