New Pernell Whitaker Highlights from the Tube

ill admit he has a better jab now but Pea is not as good as Pep. Pep dosent need a good highlights package because his defensive skills are a highlight package

 

holy ****,thats my video.
the original song was cant touch this by mc hammer but youtube took the song off.
thanks for the props.i watched all my pernell fights,people go on about how brilliant he was on defense but he could do it on offense too,imagine if he had 1 shot ko power.

 

Pep's daddy. :good

 

Excellent

 

Dairy cream from ASDA?

 

What exactly did Pep do better? Pea had the better jab and was the better in-fighter. He also fought better off the backfoot, and as such was more adept at dealing with pressure fighters. So where are Pep's significant edges?

 

Pep's better because he has over 200 fights, was in a plane crash, then made a comeback, fought in the 40's and 50's, and simply came decades before Whitaker.

 

I'll agree on footwork, at least fundamentally. One of Whitaker's few technical flaws was in his tendancy to cross his feet when on the move, leading to balance issues (primarily post-Lightweight) when he was fighting out of a more flat-footed stance. He more than made up for it with his ability to fight off the backfoot and control the ring, though.

 

My man! What a ****ing glorious genius. Head and shoulders above every other fighter of the past 20 years. My favourite Pea performance is probably McGirt I. Sweet Pea is in there with a bigger man, an excellent welterweight champion, and when pressure mounts on him, he produces the goods. It's a tough and difficult fight, but I think it really says something about Pernell. Too many people make rash comments about featherfists and a lack of offence, but in that fight Pea's physical strength and his infighting abilities are just fantastic.
