The Smile of Irrespressible Sadness: Whitaker vs Chavez
Collapse
-
Thought pernell won, but never thought it was a robbery with a draw.
First 5 rounds Chavez was very competitive and active, and I think 11, 12 could have gone his way as well.
Originally I thought pernell won 115-113
Pernell won his rounds in a much more dominant and flashy way, so I think it gives the impression that the fight was very lopsided.
But Chavez was putting in that work early and was going shot for shot with pernell. But it seems pernell gets more credit because he is holding his own vs Chavez. It's a credit to pernells greatness how he was able to tame Chavez after a few rounds and really carve him up

I remember one day I woke up and realized that most people know that the pea manhandled Chavez, does not matter what the judges did, and thats the best we can hope for.

Wilfredo Rivera beat that fraud twice. Nobody likes to talk about that.
Rivera exposed pernal as one dimensional and to dumb to deal with height and range

Originally posted by OctoberRed View PostI remember thinking Whitaker won, but I didn't think it was some insane robbery that Diva was claiming.
Originally posted by joseph5620 View PostIt was an insane robbery. It wasn't even a close fight. Unless you think you can make a case for Chavez winning or even getting a draw.
