This was a boxing clinic. I think that Azumah Nelson gave Pernell Whitaker or "Sweet Pea" a lot of trouble with his physicality as Whitaker didn't have an answer for Nelson's inside pressure. However, I think that Sweet Pea is an all time great and the fact that the professor landed a lot of punches and was accurate was very impressive. He doesn't get enough credit for his style of fighting. Pernell didn't dominate in this fight but he did enough to win. RIP Sweet Pea.
117-111 Sweet Pea Whitaker Nelson Pretty much a whipe out. I think Nelson did enough to win round 7. Then I think he was either tanking or gassed in the championship rounds. 1 10 9 2 10 9 3 10 9 4 10 9 5 10 9 6 10 9 7 9 10 8 10 9 9 10 9 10 10 9 11 9 10 12 8 10
Wow...I love Pernell Whitaker...I was born in 94, but I laugh when people say Mayweather is the greatest defensive fighter ever...the claim of Mayweather being the greatest is debatable. Not in my top 10. But Whitaker is in my top 10.

Floyd is better because when he makes people miss he's always in position to fire back. Pernell is also amazing at defense but half the time he just makes them look silly but can't always punch back because of his positioning.
What ever the final results remember Nelson was fighting in his backyard. Nelson asked for return match, never happened RIP PERNELL THE SWEET PEA THE LEGEND.
I really don't know how you (or anyone else) felt that Nelson won this fight...and I'm mean this in an unbiased fashion. While Nelson (whom I love as well) had his moments and showed his class and greatness, no way he won this fight. Please go back and watch this fight again; don't just "LOOK" at the fight, but watch it...big difference between the two considerations.
@@josephxuereb1978 Thank you! Nelson...whom I love(d) as well...put up a great effort, but Whitaker showed that he has some dog in him to go with his skillset.
@@jmbx7 Yes, my friend, I agree we will see things differently...but I truly implore you to watch it again anyway lol...and note how Whitaker used Nelson's agression against him, and Whitaker showed some dog in him. I will always suggest that Nelson fought a great fight and had his moments. In all fairness, Nelson's controlled agression was something to behold and may have broken the heart and spirit of a lesser fighter and/or someone not a great as Pernell Whitaker. Incidentally, I actually re-watched that fight/took my own advice because I was quite young when I watched that fight and had to second guess what I saw...I arrived at the same result.
Difiero contigo compadre, vi ganar a Whitaker, pero no soy fan de él ,en México su estilo sería apestoso y probablemente lo bajarían del ring porque parece no querer pelear, parece cobarde, aquí te perdonan todo menos eso, no niego su abilidad, su velocidad, ve el primer combate contra José Luis Ramírez, Ramírez le ganó claramente, pero perdió el segundo combate aunque nos cueste reconocerlo.
Azumah era aguerrido e inquebrantable!!! El único Salvador Sanchez fue el que lo derribó varias veces y después lo noqueo...sólo así perdió este roble de ébano.
One of the biggest robberies in Boxing Azumah Nelson won this fight clearly! I liked Sweet Pea, but he lost this fight to Nelson. Boxing has always been a corrupt sport!
I could see Sanchez outpointing Whitaker. However, Whitaker's movement and defense was so good that it would have been difficult for Sanchez to land enough damaging blows to knock him out.
Se le complico el estilo de Whitaker a Azuma Nelson y es que en esos tiempos Whitaker a Whitaker era además un Boxeador sucio y oportunista, cuando fue con Chevez ahí sintió presión y aunque acabo en empaté ese combate se le dificulto también a Whitaker pelear con Chávez.
Pero si ese empate fue el peor robo que se ha visto, Chávez recibió una clase en esa pelea, si no me equivoco fue en el 6 round que Chavez recibio un golpe a la boca del estomago de Whitaker y empezó a ganarle la pelea en corto, y esa fue la prueba de que Whitaker era mejor en la pelea corta distancia que Chavez, además, Whitaker neutralizo su mano en entrada de Chavez que era la derecha.....no se puede comparar a Chavez con Nelson, Nelson le complicó la pelea, Chávez para nada le complicó a Whitaker, esa noche él pivoteo, jabeo, combinó, peleo tanto a larga, media y corta distancia he hizo lo que quiso, pero buee, anteriormente a Whitaker ya le habian robado contra otro mexicano, que era el zurdo Ramirez.

Dude pernell shut him out. The fight wasn’t even close
@@jasonhill2348 i had it 8-4 or 9-3 though. He won clearly. I dont know why you think I didn't believe that.
No wonder Whittaker declined a rematch request by Nelson.
Nelson can be rough, too.
Rip Whittaker.
@herculessskinny2030 I still can't believe Pernell Whittaker has passed. What a fu**ing tragedy.. what happened? Can you tell me anything?
Do you think you can show the professor vs Jeff Fenech?They had a pretty good trilogy!
A Classic!! Show up and Show out!!Rest in Peace to all.Amen!!To God be the Glory!!Hello!!
Azumah Nelson is in the twilight of his career. during that fight.
Por eso se llevó la paliza de su vida
Rip SWEETPEA 🙏🏿😇🕊🥊
2 of my favorites growing up
Yes I was shocked how he handled nelson
El robo del siglo !! Claramente fue un empate !! Increíble!!
No mames !😂
He he he, after this fight Whitaker got turned into the main advocate of the initiative to turn boxing rims bigger.
Nelson apply all his best but it doesn't favour him
Canelo probably learnt from Azuma
Pero seguro repitió el curso
RIP Sweet pea my favorite fighter of all time he showed great class in this fight and didn't mind getting a point deducted for our entertainment 😂
Bueno, no pudo tumbar a Azumah.(sólo S Sánchez lo logró ) Azumah creo es el que más lo ha golpeado. Y como no queriendo Azumah lo jala y lo tumba jaja
Todos olvidan que a Mario Azabache Martinez le robaron la primera pelea con Azumah Nelson
They made Whitiker to win the fight but he suffered.
Whitakers toughest fight it seems
This fight reminded me of tank vs pitbull Cruz fight
117-111 Sweet Pea
Whitaker Nelson
Pretty much a whipe out. I think Nelson did enough to win round 7. Then I think he was either tanking or gassed in the championship rounds.

You don't usually give rematches to guys you 10-2 on a non-biased scorecard.
Claro que fue muy buen boxeador. Azumah Nelson esta considerado el mejor boxeador africano de todos los tiempos.
Nelson was robbed in my opinion, the worse should have been a draw.
Please!
Yeah I dont see that at all
I agree with you.
Nelson probably landed the harder shots but pea landed more.
It's time you learned the first rule of the sport. Only the punches that land count.

No Whitaker show ed to be the Speedy.
Azusa was mad at him
Nelson lacked accuracy in the fight
His wife was dying of cancer. He was not 100% focused.
Salvador Sanchez would have beaten Whitaker so bad
I don't think so...
No chance.
Nah Salvador was too basic
I could see Sanchez outpointing Whitaker. However, Whitaker's movement and defense was so good that it would have been difficult for Sanchez to land enough damaging blows to knock him out.
None of Pea stuff would work on Sanchez. Pea would have been in deep trouble against Sanchez.
Thus game was absolutely draw
