    Does Sweet Pea have the punching power to keep Pac off of him? Also with pac being such an unorthodox fighter, southpaw and like to bulldoze with his punches coming forward rather than textbook combinations, would sweet pea be able to slip them as easily as his other opponents?

    Good fight.

    Sweet Pea wins a classic. Something like 9-3 but might get KD in this fight. I just think his jab, footwork, handspeed, and defense is too much for even Pac. Whitaker matches up very well against most fighters.

    Pea was a brilliant fighter to watch.

    Boxing is the sweet science and Whitaker was Einstein.

    good for you fedor.. IMO he's painful to watch with no power. i like morales and pac style of fighting . i am telling you that if pac connects his left hand that einstein will appreciate the whole milky way galaxy encircling his head :good

    Pac will try to make it a brawl but this would only play into Pea's hands as he was excellent off the backfoot and would win by comfortable UD.

    There aren't a lot of fighters in history I'd pick over Whitaker.
    Not so long ago I'd have picked Pea to win every round against Pac - I certainly don't see it like that anymore but Pea's jab and magnificent defence should take him to a clear decision.
    Whitaker was also very busy for a defensive fighter - he almost always threw 70+ punches a round, so he wouldn't be out-worked either.
