    Default Pernell Whitaker vs. Felix Trinidad in 1994.

    We saw how a shot Whitaker did against Trinidad in 1999. Well, how would the fight have gone 5 years earlier?

    I'd give it to Whitaker all the way. Pernell was washed up big time but he still made Tito miss and look foolish many times, Tito couldn't land his left hand (jab or left hook) with any consistency, and Pernell stood toe to toe many times, dug hard to the body and backed Tito up many times.

    I haven't seen that fight in a few years but I encourage everyone to watch it with the sound off. That was a close, competitive fight for a lot of the action, but stupid-ass Jim Lampley went nuts every time Tito threw a punch and was talking about how Pernell wasn't making Tito miss when clearly he was.

    Lampley is not a good commentator.

    I have a love/hate with him. I think he brings good energy to a broadcast and his voice has become something my brain associates with the big fights.

    But he's HORRENDOUS at discerning which punches land and which ones miss or are blocked. He did the same thing with DLH/Pernell (we all know he loved him some DLH), and recently in the Pacquaio/Bradley 1 fight, which yeah, Pac deserved to win but he didn't land half the punches that Lampley thought he did.

    I'd go with sweapea.
    When I asked Pernell, could i take a photo with him, a few fans told me he'd say no, so i played the ghetto card.
    Swea big bruh! We're from the same era! Morris Day and the Time Kool and the gang...i know your dipsey-do!
    He smiled as we stood face to face....i swear in a blink of an eye he grabbed & spun me...b4 i knew it we were side by side.

    Now i know how he turns his opponents so easily.!
