    I'm looking at the Ring Mag historical ratings and noticed that for a long time Pernell, Trinidad, and Quartey were #s 1-3 respectively for 3 consecutive years without fighting each other (Pernell and Tito 4 years at 1 and 2 starting at 1993)

    How do you think this fight would have gone? Trinidad fresh off a Camacho win, Whitaker off a schooling of Chavez

    I don't think Whitaker ever has an easy time with the naturally larger Trinidad, who would enjoy quite an advantage in height, reach, and frame, but I still think Pea wins a decision.
