but how many of you wouldn't call Pea the rightful champion had the correct decision been announced?
Remember, this fight had a cap of 145 lbs to it as well.
So, how many of you willing to say Pac didn't really win the championship because of the catchweight are willing to do the same for Whitaker. I understand Pea was defending his title whereas Pac was going for one, but the premise is still the same.
Let it be known that I wasn't fond of the catch weight stipulations either, but seeing as it didn't affect the outcome any I don't see why it should be a problem.
Yea I believe a true championship should be won at the normal weight,
but its not like this is the first time its happened.
So, had the correct decision been announced in the Pea Chavez bout,
would you object to Pernell being called "champion"?
