Whats so great about Pernell Whitaker??

One came back and the other didn't.Hagler knew that the time was right to retire when he started looking around at the real middlweight division that was emerging,A division that was actually stacked with talent and opposition,It shocked him that a division could be so good and so competitive,Which was very unusual to him as he had seen nothing of the kind when he fought in the middleweight division.

I'd like to think he retired because he was bitter rather than afraid to have to face legit elite Middleweights for once. The division definitely did get a lot better after he retired tho.

I'd loved to see him against Sumbu Kalambay.

I've just seen the first Ramirez fight and its obvious to me that Ramirez won. It wasn't much of a fight, Whitaker kept running away and Ramirez kept chasing him. Neither landed many significant punches, but Ramirez was the agressor and did more work. Definitely. Not an impressive win for JLR but how could it be when Whitaker didn't wanna fight? Whitaker also missed with a flurry in the 11th. Ramirez landed a solid punch in the 8th or the 9th round.

So I really am afraid I don't see the controversy in this Whitaker loss either. And I don't really see how someone can say he is an ATG, since his fights were rarely watchable. He ran away all the time!

By this logic Mosley deserved to beat DLH in the second fight because DLH ran away the whole night, and only did well in rounds where he avoided exchanges. Mosley also was the only one to score blows that actually hurt.

Some people just hate certain fighters and it's obvious the thread starter hates Whitaker. He doesn't see how good a boxer Whitaker was and that's his problem. But the fact that he downsizes his accomplishments is pathetic.

No, YOU are pathetic. A guy who worships a boxer that just runs and ducks and throws pitty pat punches. Sorry, but I hate that kind of fighters.

There's a difference between liking a boxer and downsizing a boxer. I wonder which one is more pathetic?

I know you hate Whitaker because he made some of your favorite fighters look bad but, for real, enough of the hate. I don't go around saying Terry Norris or Oscar de la Hoya are ****** and overrated.

[BigMacFoster]

Calling Terry Norris overrated wouldn't do anything to Benncollinsaad,He's not really a fan of Terry Norris and his viewing of his fights is limited to Norris getting knocked out by Julian Jackson and Terry Norris knocking out John Mugabi.

both fights were short and required no great attention span like most boxing matches,Which is why Benncollinsaad will never be a boxing fan.

The guy's favourite fighter is whoever he decides to choose as his avatar for a couple of days before changing it again.

Don't give Benncollinsaad credit for hating any boxer as he would actually have happened to know atleast the most important aspects of that fighters career.

Benncollinsaad made a thread on Pernell Whitaker and gave such examples of fights to discredit him without ever even having watched them,Instead relying on what boxrec has to say on the matter.


I suggest he stick to glass jawed grapplers getting knocked out in twenty seconds like mmGAY presents.

[Boxing_12]

Big Mac Foster you don't know nothing about boxing. Every one of your posts are just utter horse ****, you ****ing sad asswhipe.

Get a life.

[Obama]

Foster is an *******, but he actually does know something about boxing.
