    Whitaker beats him @ ANY weight, very bad matchup for manny.
    Whitaker by WIDE UD.

    Pernell Whitaker would of boxed the socks off Manny. Manny wouldn't of touched him the whole fight.

    Pernell. I'm sure Roach would agree. I hope he would, anyway..

    If manny ends up with more votes than pernell then i will truly know things have gotten out of hand...


    whenever a present day fighter beats a fighter from the past you know that there is a problem

    Why is it so hard for some of you to accept that there is a lot of current fighters could beat some of the old timers. Now, I don't think Manny would have a chance of beating Pernell. But, I can think of a lot of matchups that would favor today's fighter. See my Mayweather Jr/Duran thread.

    Huge Sweet Pea fan here, and I think he'd have a lot of problems with the current Pac.

    I think Pernell is just to technically sound,and a smart boxer he would give Manny fits, and he had a great defense too. Sweet Pea by UD

    Whitaker can outpoint him, as much as I'm coming to like the newest version of Pacquiao.

    i agree

    I think modern day fighters have some advantages over fighters of the past.... but in boxing you have some time/age hierarchy or something
