    OK. Hasn't this fight been argued enough to start up another debate in a thread where debating it was pretty much prohibited?

    Go to thread tools (located right above the first post of a page) and there should be an option to add a poll

    I do think Whitaker can possibly win on points, given his defensive prowess. Then again, how will Pea deal with Duran's unrelenting pressure, if Leonard couldn't?

    Leonard wasn't fighting off the backfoot in the first fight, nor did he ever show the ability to fight as effectively off the backfoot, or as actively.

    No way whitaker wins this, jeezus, he'd have 2 run 4 his life & Viriut only just managed it, Duran get's him, no way can whitaker avoid getting hurt here in the later rounds, come'on, Duran would have been relentless so please enlighten me as 2 how whitaker could have pulled off this fistic miricle:think

    This ai'nt going 2 be Azumah Nelson following pea around on a lead, this is Duran, absolutly no way can Whitaker keep Duran off him for 15 rounds & no matter what Pea does he's getting ****in HURT & HURT BIG TIME:smoke

    Are we talking about the Duran who fought Buchanan here:think any Duran from 74 onwards gets Pea late on & if pea survives it's a Duran UD no prob:good

    I'am a huge fan ov pea but yer've got 2 draw the line here 4 the sake ov common sence:deal

    Whitaker points (said without a massive amount of confidence).
