Prime Pernell Whitaker in today's era.

...but he was not invincible. A model of a defence fighter though, for sure!

Who said he was invincible other than just yourself?



F*<k, you're dumb !

Btw, Pea kicked his elderly mother out of the house he bought her in the 80s... he took it to court and kicked her out..

Once a crackhead, always a crackhead.. who does that ..

I think Whitaker's slurred speech and brain damage is more from the years of cocaine than from Boxing. Camacho Sr too. Terrific defensive boxers, and it's amazing they were both functional at a World Class level despite their cocaine addictions. Burning the candle at both ends eventually caught up with them...

Even the most scandelous gangster I know and even the biggest criminal have soft spots for their mothers.. men are good to their mothers and that's the fuckin man code.. this POS junky evicted his mother from her own home? Fuck him I dont give a shit if he was a great fighter , he was probably coked up in some of his fights and that's cheating anyways.

Yeah, I'm sure you read the entire story and both sides. I heard Kellerman go over the story and at first he thought the same as anybody would initially. But he said there really wasn't a choice because Whitaker is broke and many people lived in the house and nobody paid anything on the mortgage or the taxes and that it was going to foreclosure if he didn't sell it and plus he owed a lot in back taxes. And Kellerman also stated that Whitaker also tried to get them to just pay the taxes on the home but to no avail. So his choices were sell the home or lose it and no one gets anything.
Meanwhile...the thread is about how Sweet P would fair against today's era. And as far as cheating you can't be serious. Dude you support Margarito and try every excuse to cover up arguably the worst cheating attempt in boxing history. Everybody is or probably did cheat except the man who got caught outright attempting to fight with bricks. Okay, gotcha.

"Everyone is cheating except for the guy attempting to fight with bricks"

That was pretty funny Finito LOL

Well anyway he's a great fighter and would do well today.

I just wouldn't bet on him personally against the better fighters of the present and recent eras.

Got nothing else really to add here.

And just to be clear I think it is a bad look regardless of what the whole truth is because before I heard the Kellerman's take I didn't like it as well. But you do have to at least check into and take in both sides no matter how it looks.
