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

And please. Try to bring your vcash up if you want my respect. I bet on boxing EVERYWEEK and research fighters EVERYWEEK from all over the world. Tell me some winners before you talk like u know something... and don't try to put me in my place with barely any winning bets like a loser. In order to win you got to be able to put styles together and envision an outcome which i've learn to do very well. Something I seriously think you guys can't do. Please prove me that i am wrong, i welcome it.

 

Top 10. Definitely.

 

You want a bottle of lotion and some tissue for when you decide to beat off to your vCash? I don't give a **** about that, even though I'm 3-3 on the bets I've made here, I don't talk like I want a ****ing cookie for it. Yay, you can win fake cash online for betting on fights. Now go beat off about it. Try to use legitimate knowledge instead of how much fake online money you have.

 

So you think i just bet on ESB lol? :-( legitimate knowledge? whats that? who is Pernell whitaker?

 

Just as I thought.

 

Top 10 most likely

Top 20 without a question

The difference between him and Floyd to me is that the casual fan thinks Floyd is boring (though we who know the sweet science, know its completely opposite) .... but the same casual fan thought Sweet Pea was entertaining.

He skills was his PAINT BRUSH and the ring was his CANVAS!

 

I can see why you phrased it that way. /discussion

 

The styles are completely different.

Floyd fights with a Philly shell defence blocking shots with his arms and shoulders. Pot shotting from the outside with accurate blows, wasting very little and taking minimal risks.

Pernell on the other hand is a southpaw who fought both on the inside and outside. Using upper body movement to not simply block the shots but make his opponent miss completely. He had the ability to be stood on the inside right in front of his opponent, make him miss and still find the room to counter.

There is no doubt in my mind who rates higher P4P, and that is Whitaker.

 

Top 20 and surely above Pac and May.

 

Lot of unrefutable names on that list.... but missing Hearns.

I'd give Honroable Mentions to ODLH (well rounded), RJJ (speed/mobility/dominance), Hopkins (defenses, technical ability & Ring IQ).

 

Pernell is the man. Boxing genius. If he had power, he'd be undefeated up until Trinidad

 

One of the 25 greatest I know of. One of the 4 or 5 best I've seen.

 

top 10 easy !!

 

Tito was the first to clearly beat the man and if pernell wasn't taking cocaine for years he would have had a good shot at beating him. (and badly at that). If he had power, **** he might be still fighting
