I'm not sure how Whitaker "arguably" lost to Hurtado considering he knocked him out.

Pea was also past his best when he fought Oscar but he fought as well as he could, all things considered (I scored it a draw).

I regard Pernell as a more skilled, complete fighter. Oscar has a superb resume but Whitaker also dominated for a long time from 135-147.

I have a lot of daylight between them in my rankings, with Pea somewhere between 13-20 and Oscar outside the top 60.
