Pernell Whitaker Asked about his and Mayweathers Defense (Video)

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.Comment

And way higher as in, I'd place Floyd top 50 but Pea top 15.Comment

He didn't push himself too me. too much lack of focus and BSing and the drugs and stuuf play right into that. He could of been so much more if u really look at him for whathe was. Skills out of this world though!Comment

LOL, you can't do much more than what Pea did. And speaking of being much more, someone get Floyd on the phone.Comment

Yeah but 80% of Mayweather fans (EDIT: and those who despise him too btw, maybe 95% there) dont know **** about boxing, I am talking about ppl who are worth listening to when they rate fighters in a bigger picture (people who watch and understand boxing).
On the bold, i find it a ridiculous gap. Don't want to get in that, because I find the style matchup much more interesting.Comment

Let me be clear, Pea is 1 of the greatest fighters I had ever seen in my short life and on the tapes I've seen. But I just can't help but want more from him. with all that talent, he still should have been able to beat Tito and that last dude he fought. I can't even remember who that was. and in my opinion he beat Oscar and Chavez.Comment

Floyd ain't stopping no Pernell Whitaker, just stop it. And to keep it real, he ain't beating him either. You seem to know a lot about the way Floyd fights...how bout Pea?Comment

mcgirt 1. He is on spot most of the fight, as he should have given Buddy was no slouch, but in one of the final rounds (11 or 12) he just clowns so much and I remember thinking... here we go again, luckily the judges got the rounds right enough.Comment
