Pacquiao Vs Pernell Whitaker at 147? Who would have won?

[LinealChampion]

Pac is fighting a slick fighter in Mayweather, orthodox.
He also has fought Bradley, (some might say he can be slick at times)

How do you think Pacquiao would do against a slick southpaw defensive master? Would he have better success against a south paw defensive fighter?

[Build That Wall]

Whitaker would do to Pacquiao what Mayweather is going to do to Pacquiao, only more Masterful. Pacquiao will only win 3 or 4 rounds vs Mayweather. Pacquiao would not win a single round vs Whitaker.

why didn't you include a poll?

All these slickster defensive greats thrive on guys they have an athletic advantage over. Whitaker nor Floyd have an athletic advantage over Manny.

[General STRUGG]

pernell. But pernell will dominate floyd more im sure of that as well.

[Jimmy 23]

Sweet Pea by UD

[Mitchell Kane]

I think Whitaker beats Pacquiao more decisively at lightweight than welterweight.

It would be a good fight at 147, but I'd still favor Sweet Pea.

[Rockin']

Pernell would make Paq look like a bumbling amateur with the way that Paq runs straight in firing with is head straight up in the air.

Paq is in no way as skilled as Whitaker, with the exception of power.

[Pac=Duran]

I would say Pac by decision. Pernell at 147 wasn't as great as he was at lightweight.

May 2nd will be a good indicator though.
