    Bigjake, if you can find the boxing magazine that details how Hector Camacho beat up Pernell Whitaker in sparring I will give you a $1000 for it :good

    I always thought the rumor was that Pernell got the best of Camacho in a sparring session that Manny Steward was looking over.

    Yeah that's what I've heard too (and have read personally in a couple of sources). But redrooster says he read a magazine once that said Whitaker got his ass handed to him and the sparring session needed to be stopped to protect Whitaker from further punishment. I'd like to read about it first hand. :good

    We're looking at around 1985-86 bigjake.

    I've asked around a bit and no one seems to be able to locate it. But I trust redrooster's word, so I'm still on the look out. :good
