    Two unique, stylistic originals in what they brought to the ring. How would this fight tactically unfold between the modern great and the old school great? Let's say at welterweight for 15 rounds...Burley has never seen anything remotely resembling Whitaker in the ring... but the opposite may be true as well(?) :think

    I would pick Burley, he was simply too big and pysically too strong for Sweet Pea IMO...
