Pernell Whitaker vs Wilfred Benitez at 147lbs

235 feints, and 7 punches total,... thrown per round.

 

Haha, very true. We need an expert for this one.
I believe it will be a split decision. I would
say Pernell's southpaw stance would trouble Benitez,
but Benitez was so accomplished and versatile
imo. McGrain? Haha

 

:think





draw.

 

damn i'm no expert but i'll venture to lean towards benitez. He had the size, skill and sharpness to edge a just past best weight whitaker

 

Unfortunately a Draw 15

With a scorecard of 1-1 in rounds, with an incredible 13 scored Even.

For those who didn't know, Wilfred was a converted southpaw.

Can't you just see Referee Mills Lance screaming at the two 'stylists' to fight.

Nothing but 'pitty-pat' punches.

 

come on pepe...i think benitez can take at least 2 rounds, maybe even 3 :bbb

Let's get it on...let's get it on...LET'S GET IT ON !!!!!

 

I'd give a SMALL edge to Pea, because in a battle of stylists like that, the better and more versatile jab usually ends up being the difference.

But it'd be a bore. Missed punches galore. Thing is, both of them had stellar, unreal defensive abilties, and weren't blazing fast. They'd really struggle to hit eachother.

 

Would be a great, tactical inside fighting chess match, with Pea being the busier and more effective body puncher in a nip and tuck affair.

I don't see it being a pose-off. Both are likely to mix it up.

 

Roy Jones knocks out both. Deal with it.

 

Whitaker was the better fighter overall,and pound for pound,but Benitez edges it,for me,at Welterweight.

 

That fight would be like drinking a,

Decaffeinated, Decaffeinated Coffee with Light Skim Milk.....

No Kick.

 

I know what you mean,Pepe. Great fighters,but bad style mix for a crowd pleasing fight.

 

Marijan Benes by late stoppage.
