Pernell wasn't boxing with the fear of being hit. I think he has been teached a very strong basis at the beginning. Add to that his constant ring generalship and simple game plan. An almost perfet boxer when he reached his prime.
POUND 4 POUND - SWEET PEA is a True #Legend ! He ONLY Really Lost Once in His Illustrious Career when he was post-prime against = Felix "Tito" Trinidad. Whitaker was a Defensive Maestro that had an Amazing JAB! - Stephen Donatelli (Pittsburgh, PA).
True facts I model my fight game after sweet pea as well just with a little more power.and when I seen that fight with Felix I was crushed,I knew then that the drugs was finally catching up to even his greatness .if he fought him 2yrs earlier he dominates him.my top 4 fighters of all time.#412
@@448DamonXX parkinsons aint the same as CTE. he was bound to get that. your blind if you think he got hit the most. you cant tell me you havent seen fraziers ass whooping, Tysons crazy beatings, and Holyfields WARS. Ali didnt take near as many brain damaging blows like them check the STATS
After watching this fight I don't understand why he didn't have much KOs in his professinal carrer. He showed sharp and hard punches in this performance.
Such a great team the USA had in 1984 - However the reality is most of those gold medals would have been silver if the Cubans hadn't been part of the Soviet boycott..... Pea may have beaten Angel Herrera Vera (but i doubt it) but i can tell you all one thing with absolute certainty there is no way Tyrell Biggs takes home the Super Heavy Gold if Teofilo Stevenson was in town

One of the most skillful fighters of all time no question about it. Beautiful ring generalship.
oh my God!! that is beautiful fighting
This was the Golden Age of USA amateur boxing. So glad to relive with these wonderful videos. Thank you Team USA!
Whitaker's defense was so great to the point that it looked choreographed.
He saved his best for last....He basically ran thru his opponents with ease during those Olympics
Rip Pernell he truly was god gifted 🙏🏻
someone who can fight and put on a show and not get hit at the same time, that's the best kind of boxer to be i think.
By far
Legend , R.I.P
RIP Champ!You will be greatly missed.
Rip one of the greatest so sweet he was❤

During this whole olympic event during every fight cosell said the same shit "Whitaker has a tendency to showboat, he might beat himself". Lol
THANKS VERY VERY MUCH FOR THE VIDEOS!!! *Pernell Whitaker Is The Best Southpow Of All Time! He Invented "The Sweet Pea Science"!!!

Floyd was like a Orthodox version of Sweet P
My dude Pernell Whitaker. Greatest defense of all time.
2nd greatest. doesn’t Quite top Ali but very close
@@dahshendrick2566 Ali? 😭😭😭
@@448DamonXX you do undersrand he got hit the least in the head thsn all other heavyweights. hence why he never got knocked out
@@dahshendrick2566 Ali got hit probably more than any other legend why do u think he couldn’t talk at 40

R.I.P boxing master, pleasure to watch you fighting.
Thank you for sharing this great video.
Pure Poetry from tha P!
Sweetpea made Norfolk proud!!!
1984 was the most feared team in boxing history, damn shame my father’s trainer fucked him over for the light heavyweight spot.
RIP , best fighter ever in my opinion
Always right infront of his opponent despite his height. What a sharshooter. The guy is one of the most gifted of all time
fucking beautiful
Arte in movimento. R.I.P.
the true story is that before the olympics the newspaper mis-printed his nickname from sweet pete to sweet pea and the nickname stuck lol
Покайся с миром!! Легенда ! 2019
Classic !
nice to have a classy referee.
Class is class. The last undisputed lightweight champion of the world; until Devon Haney recently.
Perfect P..

G.O.A.T🙏
I agree as a professional
even he's not popular like dela hoya or another superstars, he's the best one.
You can hear the sound of punches a mile away from Whitaker lol
VIRGINIA STAND UP 757 FINEST
