Re: Pernell Whitaker to be inducted in Hall of Fame
Saw Sweet Pea & spoke with him at the Calvin Brock/Zuri Lawrence fight that I was at a year or so ago.
Although he definently sounded a bit punch drunk during small talk prior to his fighter's shot...when he was in the corner...he was damned well understandable...then again...he was jacked the fwock up pressing his fighter Dorin Spivey during the action.
Pernell definently deserves to be recognized...hands down he was one of the more talented fighters of his time. He's got a hell of a record & the fact that he went 12 & held his own with Oscar & Tito while they were in their primes...that speaks bounds.
