    For all his skills, Whitaker's style was an acquired taste.

    He would still get booed today!:deal

    Whitaker was the man.

    Young Mayweather, Bernard Hopkins, and Whitaker.

    The guy fought everyone until the end and had no problem with going to your hometown and schooling opponent. He would be the hugest breath of fresh air for boxing purist. Lots of other past fighters would fit in this situation also.

    Of course I'm not biased towards him:hat

    You're too funny. I meant you like it when they brawl, trade, exchange, firefight, etc.

    It's not new that lots of people can't appreciate good defensive fighters. You can't say that Whitaker didn't have more fun than anyone else in the ring though.

    You can't blame me. You've used the race card enough times in your replies to make me think it was just your defense mechanism.


    And Yes, I am a fan of fighters who bring excitement into the ring..

    That's true!! Pee was a Boring fighter!! I'm hearing his name in the 90s but I never even attept to watch his fights. There's no buzz at all. I'm only with the Tyson & Holyfield and I saw some Trinidad and DLH in the 90s. If you saw the Hearns & SRL era, you'll lose interest with Whitaker.

    Thanks for Pacquiao, Excitement is back in boxing. Floyd's more exciting than pee because of his arrogant personality. Pea's a Featherfisted Boring technical fighter with a Bland Personality.

    Don't think he would be hated like Floyd, but I'm absolutely certain Floyd would go on a vacation if he had to fight Pernell. :deal
