    Jeez. I like KT alot, but he's got a puncher's chance against Whitaker.

    Can't believe the poll is even as close as it is.

    Not even a punchers chance my friend...A monstrous puncher like Tito couldn't take out a shot cokehead Pea coming off a two year lay off...Its very unlikely Tsyzu would be capable of...thats if he even manages to land flush on Pea.

    Im going to leave everybody with this thought.

    Had they fought which was a possibility from 1997 to 1999 Whitaker would have lost to Tszyu like he lost to Dela Hoya and Trinidad.

    Thats a a cold hard fact. he was at the end and even Hurtado in 1997 was down by 1 round or 2 rounds on the score cards when he was stopped by Whitaker in the 11th round.

    Hurtado faced Tszyu 11 months later and Tszyu KO'd him big time in the 5th.

    Now as a Prime vs Prime fight goes its a different fight but if they met from 1997 to 1999 true and real Boxing fans know it would have been a win for Tszyu.

    Pernell would beat Kostya forsure via points...

    But you saying Kostya would be lucky to make top 15 in 140 is literally something a crack addict would only say..Or maybe a down syndrome donkey..

    What a F'n crybaby, most of the fanboys who back the fighters you listed make crazy claims so they get a verbal beat-down. Tell your little pansie friends to stop making crazy claims and your heroes wont get bashed . . . until :lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol:

    You're an american kid who barely speaks English. I'm pretty sure that you already know you're not exactly an intelligent person. Why don't you learn some humility?

    I said 10-15, or can't you read? I said that because most people rank Pernell at least in the top 15 and some in the top 10 P4P . .. and I was slightly exaggerating a point to make a point. So what are you gonna do . . . sue me . . . :fy:finger

    I'm a big fan of Tszyu but I couldn't see him winning this one - Whitaker on points all day.

    Kostya was very good against southpaw's and, since he was a master of timing and distance, I'm sure he could've landed his vaunted right-hand, especially down the stretch when Pea could get a little lazy. Whitaker had a superb chin though, so even if Tszyu got past his defence, he wasn't knocking him out.

    Whitaker's movement, jab, defence, counter-punching and hand-speed win this. He was more dedicated to his body-attack too - I just can't see Pea losing this.

    No, you're an idiot who's too stupid to recognize his own idiocy, and if you're 'old enough' and still talk the way you do? **** man, your family must really be proud of you huh?
