Pernell Whitaker - Wilfredo Rivera I
James Toney - Dave Tiberi (obviously)
Erik Morales - Guty Espadas I
Whitaker was completely flat from his drug use and underprepared for the fight. He was lucky to escape with the win. This was the first fight you could visibly see the effects of his partying (in a significant way).
Toney was the same way against Tiberi. Underprepared, flat, unmotivated. He's lucky that shows up as a W on his record. Tiberi out-hustled him for much of the fight and James shockingly came out on top.
Morales was pretty uninspired against Espadas in my opinion. Don't get me wrong, I don't think he lost the fight, but I think he looked pretty lethargic that night. I actually thought he looked good against Barrera in their first fight and had him winning by a point even with the BS knockdown.
