Some Pernell Whittiker questions

[Barn]

Lol @ barnburner, i've got pernell winning that fight but can see why chavez backers say differently, there's always two sides/views to a story.

Did you dock 4 or 5 points?

there was no rematch because Don King knew team Chavez got away with one and he wasn't gonna roll the dice that the judges in the rematch would be so favorable to them.

From what I remember Chavez wanted a rematch but not at welterweight

knowing Chavez, he probably did want a rematch. But King contolled the strings. Remember King (or any other promoter) doesn't have the best interest of the sport in mind. Why would King send his cash cow (Chavez) out against a better fighter (Whitaker), knowing Chavez is gonna get beat. That makes no business sense

That makes no sense Chavez fought Randall who was a tougher matchup Whitaker. Chavez wasn't a welterweight that is real reason why they never got a rematch.

Trojan, your bias is clouding your reasoning. Bottom line, Chavez was great but Whitaker was even better. Whitaker won that night, and would have won the rematch, regardless of the weight. I liked Chavez better too, I'll lie to my wife to cover my azz, I'll lie to my mother to save her feelings, I'll lie to my kids to protect their innocense, But I NEVER EVER lie to myself

Yes in fantasy land... but in reality Whitaker with a weight advantage and numerous low blows still couldn't beat him.
