If there was ever a fight where not one single punch is landed by either fighter this could be it! LOL.
Whitaker had a much higher workrate than Locche which would be the difference. Awkward fight for sure, but Pea scores more by way of his excellent jab and carries the fight.
You've proven time and time again that you understand nothing about styles. Whitaker is higher volume, faster, and more mobile than Locche. The people that Locche looked good against were trash compared to Whitaker. And Locche also looked not so good against fighters that were nowhere near as good as Whitaker.
Just for the record "expert", I think Pernell would beat Locche also, but it sure as hell wouldn't be in "lopsided fashion"....that's totally absurd....and it shows ignorance on your behalf. it would be something like the Leonard-Benitez fight, only minus the stoppage. Locche, like Benitez, would pose a problem for Whitaker, who would be fighting a fellow defensive genius...but where the Pea excels over Locche is in punch output...he would be busier. Don't underrate Locche like that when talking boxing.
