Pernell Whitaker actually didn't have bad punching power at all, the reason why you didn't see more KO's from Pernell Whitaker. Was because he mostly boxed on that back foot, and its hard to get full power into your shots while being on the back foot.
But i can assure you he had underrated power he put away Diosbelys Hurtado, in brutal fashion you should check that out. He also stunned Julio Cesar Chavez a few times, he also put down the very tough Rafael Pineda with a body shot. Also put away Jake Rodriuez with body shots a man who went the distance with Felix Trinidad.
