    Really ?... you honestly think pac has a shot at 140 vs the Pea that beat Pineda ?... you think he has a shot vs any WW version of Pea pre Vasquez aka the Chavez & Mcgirt versions ?.... nah, Whitaker would put a clinic on pacs predictable ass at those weights.

    The only way pac ever has a shot vs Whitaker is if you carefully select certain versions of each fighter & put them in the ring together - which we can pretty much do with any fighter thats ever lived & get the results to suit ourselves.

    Any prime version of Whitaker beats any version of pac, period.

    Isn't that only in WBO fights, most fights don't use that rule

    I'm a big fan of both fighters, and Pea wins 10 or 11 rounds out of 12, possibly incurring a flash knockdown to tighten the cards a little more than 119-109/118-110. This wouldn't be a close fight. At his best, Manny is great. At Pea's best, he is one of history's elite.

    I dont know how good this fight would be. I believe Manny is a very overated fighter and hes been carefully matched at the higher weights. I think a slickster like Pernell would make him look foolish and easily beat him.

    Whitaker vs the great Azumah Nelson:

    Whitaker wins a title at 140 vs a pretty decent fighter (and hard hitter) in Rafael Pineda:

    Don't fret...stick around.

    But seriously, Manny could neever, ever beat Whitaker, let alone destroy him.

    Marquez did in many moments in their third fight.

    And that was Marquez.....Pea would make him flat out look like an amateur.
