Never felt so conflicted as a kid watching him fight chavez. Both legends. Still fans of both.
Chavez performed the best he could at that time, but Chavez had not had a serious challenge since fighting Meldrick Taylor in March 1990. During that stretch, Chavez started drinking heavily and went through a divorce with his wife because of his alcoholism. Chavez was not the same fighter that fought Meldrick Taylor, but Pernell Whitaker won their fight and he deserved to get the W on his record over Chavez. Whitaker had some extra motivation in the fight, to avenge his good buddy Taylor's controversial loss to Chavez.
Rounds 1, 2, 5, 6, 9, are clearly, so clear for JC Chávez. Rounds 3, 7, 8, 11, so clear for Whitaker. Rounds 4, 10, and 12, are for me even, you can say whatever you want. I have to say that 12 round, Whitaker was holding all the time, and add too that Whitake throw 2 big low blows.
Whitaker, elusive, tecnician, good defensive, making points, Chavez, chasing, throwin to the body, hitting hard. Difficult fight, for me was for Chávez by 1 point.
Rip Pernell,one of my fav boxers and def styles.A cless act too.💜
rip one of the greatest ever.
The greatest defensive boxer in history
The greatest marathon guy in history shit
you couldn’t hit em in a phone booth.
@igorputin2499Floyd defense way better
WILLIE PEP WAS sorry.
@@Ontiming2023Have you even heard of Wiilie Pep?
Rest In Peace Pernell , YOU ARE BEYOND BRILLIANT AS A CHAMPION !!!!!
Even if he tried to teach his fighters to be like him it would not happen because you can't teach speed along with awareness, instinct and agility all working at the same time.
Still can't believe how he died. RIP
I know
It hurts
Salute 2 Pernall Sweet Pea Whitaker a great 4× division champion he could do it all RIP Champ 🙏🙏🏆🏆🏆🏆

"I gave the fans what they really wanted to see, I entertained them. I let my boxing skills display itself".

He was always considerate with the fan,s , definetly one of the very best , definetly had him winng the chavez fight , sweet pea was like butter on ice defence , rattle snake offence . one of the top ten. for sure 👑 Hail to sweet pea 👍 R I P. now he,s sparing with angel,s ☁☁🥊😄🥊☁☁ , and they cant touch him.
enjoyed ‘sweet pea’ & still look 4 him
RIP Champ!!!! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
FIVE HUNDRED?! holy fuck. Amateurs never go up that high.
Pernell Whitaker in my opinion, was the best pure boxer of all time. However, his lack of discipline and his addictions, unfortunately caught up to him. The only fight he truly lost in the ring was against Trinidad and he was already over the hill when they fought.
I get angry when I remember the robberies they did with PW against Ramirez. I don't think he lost a fight. Ever
Pernell Whitaker , 🥊🥊🥊🥊🥊🥊🥊🥊🥊🥊🥊🥊🥊🥊🥊🥊🥊🥊🥊🥊🥊🥊
Rest easy king
Partying made him age fast. But his boxing was beautiful.
🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
IM A CHAVEZ FAN, BUT HES RIGHT. HE DID WIN THT FIGHT.
@@wetguavassamen to that for all these pernell meatriders that are mad asf 🤣
Even though you may be of Mexican descent(?), thank you for looking at the Chavez fight will unbiased, honest eyes. Im a Chavez fan , too, but, I'm also unbiased when it comes to who wins/won a figth.
@@Huriel27why are you on here? Go that way👉🏽👉🏽👉🏽👉🏽
@@roderickbryant157 why don’t you?
@@wetguavasswhat fight were you watching? That fight was a clear robbery Chavez got outboxed the whole fight
THE BEST HANDS DOWN I REALLY THINK HE WOULD HAVE BEAT FLOYD
P4P greatest in his Era
RIP Pernell “Sweet Pea” Whitaker !
RIP
I would have loved to have seen him vs Floyd
What year is this?
R.I.P. Pernell “Sweetpea” Whitaker
For me,boxing died when Sweet Pea retired for all intents and purposes. Other than a handful of very special boxers,the era was over. He ABSOLUTELY DID BEAT CHAVEZ!!!
Tbf the fight should have happened 3 years earlier at 135/140 not at 147lb when Chavez did *not* belong at that weight.
rip pernell! too bad the chavez fight isnt on youtube. i remember see it live back in the day as a kid knowing pernell smoked that man that night. one of the worst decisions i have ever seen
Just watched the fight today and in my opinion Whitaker wins over julio cesar chavez.
Wrong chavez won
My favorite fighter and athlete of all time.
Sweat pea reminds me of Floyd Patterson. I think a sweet pea would’ve regained the title from Chavez. Just like Floyd Patterson went on to knock out Ingemar Johansson to be the first person to regain the title
Great man
Not Floyd, Loche,Toney,Pep or any defensive fighter in history will ever top Whitaker. What he meant to say is the extra moves I had I wont teach cause they wont be able to do them period. RIP my man. Thre greatest defensive wizard of all time.
Craziest shit I ever heard from a trainer😂 I’m not teaching them how to be agile like me
Rip Champion..
4:18 Pernell Whitaker, and I are the same size and I box southpaw so I decided to watch and learn some stuff from him. I stole one of his moves and now it’s mine. I would say what it is but it’s my move get your own.
Rounds 1, 2, 5, 6, 9, are clearly, so clear for JC Chávez. Rounds 3, 7, 8, 11, so clear for Whitaker. Rounds 4, 10, and 12, are for me even, you can say whatever you want. I have to say that 12 round, Whitaker was holding all the time, and add too that Whitake throw 2 big low blows.
Whitaker, elusive, tecnician, good defensive, making points, Chavez, chasing, throwin to the body, hitting hard. Difficult fight, for me was for Chávez by 1 point.
Wow.. cant believe a car could hit him.. best boxers in the world couldnt hit him.. 😢
He's 41-4-0 in my book.
Huge chavez fan here but pernell definitely beat him that night.. 👍
You are not a real fan chavez beat this runner

Sweet Pea definitely won the Chavez fight. FACTS!
It doesn’t even make sense to mention it
It was so one-sided
Just like Holyfield vs Lewis I

Hagler beat Sugar Ray and Sweet Pea beat Chavez
He also be delahoya they just gave it to her
I think Marvin was pulling his punches.
José Luis castillo beat mayweather
Whitaker deserved The Chavez fight . Pernell should have attempted to unify at 147lb against I Ike"Bazooka" Quartey and At 154lb with "Terrible" Terry Norris .
Dirty fighter that's all know
Ask him if he hands down won the tito fight tho🤷🏽♂️
Past his prime.
This man beat Chavez and De la Hoya.
Chavez yes, de la Hoya no.

You can tell he's been really affected here by the drugs he'd abused. He looks awful here but was a legendary fighter in his prime.
🧊👀
Yes he won that fight.
He should have fought JCC from 1989 to 91 when Chavez team was hounding Duva and Pea for the fight. They ran from the fight and took on Chavez at a weird catchweight of 145 and 2 years too late. Blame Duva.
Lol ridiculous!!!
Chavez ducked pernell for years .... and got his ass whopped when they fought
@@chrismale9976 Sure. Three years too late and at a weight JCC had no business in.
@@chrismale9976chavez beat him

I tell people I think he could have beat Mayweather. One of my dream matches is Parnell vs Mayweather Jr
One of the most disgusting robberies I’ve ever seen.
Felix Trinidad put him on his ass.!!
B-Hop returned the favor🎉🎉🎉
Pernell beat Julio unanimous decision and thats coming from a Chavez fan..
Im a die hard chavez fan and i will admit Whitaker won that fight easy.

Pernell didn't lose to chavez, he actually beat chavez , but the judges had it a draw.
In your mind maybe
@@FrankCarolei-lv6rb No PW gave chavez a boxing lesson and the judges had the audacity to call it a draw, in reality Pernell handed chavez his first loss.
Stip lying Whitaker lost he didn't defeat chave because if he did then why chavez didn't lose huh because chavez won
Stop lying to yourself Whitaker become the 87 boxer too fail I beating chavez clown

The whole world knows Castillo beat mayweather, ggg beat canelo, maidana beat mayweather, lara beat canelo...ect
To be honest. With Chávez it was a Draw or maybe one point ahead. But everyone has a different opinion.
It was defintely a close fight. I can't say that Chavez won it, the only one who could claim that would be Whitaker. It defintely wasn't by a wide margin, though. I think the weight hurt Chavez, who only came in at 142, FIVE pounds under the limit, which shouts out that he was no Welterweight.

I remeber watching pernel vs chaves and no he did not win to me

Sweet did win against Chavez, but to be fair that was a declining coke consuming Chavez, a win is a win tho.
He got robbed
I thought he lost
Chavez lost that fight. All of Mexico knows this
Pro chavez crowd when they fought at Texas. They were booing at Whitaker. After the fight they were all silent. They knew Whitaker had Chavez’s numbers.
Lol pnly Whitaker fans think that clown chavez beat Whitaker easy all of USA mexico n the world knows pea lost
