    Pernell was a mich better defensive fighter and athlete but Crawford seems to be a mich better offensive fighter + finisher. Crawford is rangier and stronger. I think Crawford would had got a decision due to his superior physical attributes

    I favour sweat pea over crawford but it would be a cool fight.

    Sweat pea is more skilled than anyone in boxing from the past 10 years maybe longer. Crawford is good but he wasted his potential on trash cans.

    Just because you disagree? Pernell never fought anyone as crafty as Crawford

    Disagree. Skils alone I would say Ennis, Floyd, Shakur, Spence, Andrade, and Crawford are on a similar level as Pernell

    I highly doubt you have very much knowledge of Pernell Whitaker.

    Let’s see Crawford Spence then decide. I like to see the elite fight elite fighters as that is the true test.

    Nostalgia is rife in boxing as you used to have to fight the best. Rarely happens these days
