Pernell Whitaker Asked about his and Mayweathers Defense (Video)

[cortdawg25]

Cort, I disagree.

The Whitaker who fought Oscar was well-past it. Period. Terrible, terrible example.

And yeah you can be nit-picky about what rounds Judah won but who cares? Let's not forget he knocked Floyd down too - catching him coming in with a right hook.

Pernell Whitaker is much, MUCH better than...everyone Floyd fought.

I wouldn't say he well past it, not in his prime but I think he was still champ when they fought. But Pea was too good for his own self. That BSing around what cost him too many times. How many of his fights did he actually come with it for the whole fight. why didn't pea throw somethign sneaky while he slipping all em punches. I loved the dude, but he used to piss me off with that.

and zab punch was an off-balance punch and good shot and his only shot that was flush the whole fight. u right that Pea is better than everyone Floyd fought though. he just disappointed me toomany times. Maybe i'm bias now.

Pernell would beat Floyd on the inside.
Floyd would beat Pernell on the outside.

I understand that Floyd has more power but Pernell was the better inside fighter.

I don't know. Everyone was saying Ricky Hatton would beat Floyd on the inside and Floyd would have to be on his bike to win, it turned out Floyd beat him both on the inside and outside. Different fighters i know Pernell is more skilled but still don't ever count pbf out.

Why wouldn't you say well past it? He had about 3-4 more fights after that. And had been dropped TWICE in his previous fight. And was lucky to escape a with a win over Wilfredo Rivera in their first fight before that. He was WELL PAST IT. Bad, BAD example.

How many of his fights did he come with it? EVERY SINGLE ONE HE WON! And some that he lost.

Imagine if Floyd Mayweather was robbed of a decision in some fight where he decided to **** around or chat with ringsiders. Then imagine some clown talkin bout, "He wouldn't win cuz he BS'ed too much." Makes no goddamn sense.

Pernell Whitaker is ranked way higher than Floyd because he beat far better opposition. And head to head, if the best you got is to compare the DLH fight where he was faded or say he BS'ed too much then I rest my case.

[wmute]

Nah, he got robbed because he got robbed lololol. How was he BS'ing against Chavez?

He never BSed against Chavez, but

He could have won the DLH and Ramirez fight if he did less clowning.

He gave up round 11 or 12 cant remember to mcgirt in a fight that was close.

This off the top of my head.

Pea was so talented and above his opposition that *sometimes* he forgot that he was there to win.

I didnt know that, and I suspect it is certainly not going to be the case in 10 years.

Sadly if you think about Pea's history it DOES make sense.

[IMDAZED]

When did Floyd announce his return?

As it stands TODAY, YES.

Sorry, but I don't see why that is the case. What do you mean by "way higher"?

And I mentioned 10 years, because no one loved Pea when he was fighting, just like PBF now.

what about the chavez fight, i know he got robbed and I was pissed about it. I felt like he did enough to beat Oscar too. Tito fight, he was hot in that fight. But both those fights he was BSing too much. Floyd did talk to the ringside but he had already done da work. Whitaker would be in close fight and be BSing. i see u fan and all, but he did that. that's not focused and disciplined. that just blessed with talent. if he would put in the work and had some discipline in his career, dude could been phenomenal. Now I Like him, but I don't hold him in such high regard as u because of that.
