How do you rate Sweet Pea - Pernell Whitaker all time p4p?

Top 15 at least.

 

I have my top 13 locked down - I think I'd have Pea between 15-20. Incredible fighter, poetry in motion.

 

Maybe on a boxing historians list that ranks Benny Leonard, Joe Gans, Harry Greb & co... but from guys I`ve seen good-decent footage of he makes my list, he`s terribly underrated on here.

A lot of people forget that more often than not that Chavez was ranked p4p1 & Pea p4p2 when (with hindsight) both were at their peaks at 135.... Chavez was a brilliant fighter & extremely good technically.

 

top 20 easy

 

PBF would toy his ass

 

top 20!

 

I've never made an ATG list, but I'd rank him in the top 10.

 

..

 

Whitaker would beat floyd, better jab, better combination puncher, at least as fast, a little better foot movement, just as hard to hit, better inside fighter & at least as adaptable.

Go watch Whitaker fight before talkin thru your ass.

 

Watched, PBF wins. Pernell got tooled by Oscar, it was an obvious beatdown.

 

Top 25

 

Your obviously trolling... but on the off chance your an amateur boxing fan, let me educate you on some things....

1. Whitaker was well past his best vs DLH.

2. The fight was razor close & could have went either way, a lot of people had Pea the winner there.

3. The version that Pea fought was prime Oscar, a far, far better version than the one floyd fought.

4. Glad to help

 

Top 15

 

Top 10-15 at the least.

 

Top 20 given how many great fighters there were, but I will say whitaker ranks the highest since leonard and duran above pac, jones jr, bhop, floyd, hagler, hearns imo.
I love watching him and along with prime tyson he would be my pick as a guy I never want to fight since it would be so incredibly frustrating.
