Lightweights: Pernell Whitaker vs. Livingstone Bramble

Post by scorpio83 »

At their best at Lightweight, Sweet Pea would use his southpaw jabs, dance, move and counter Bramble through 15 rounds to take a unanimous decision. What do you guys think?

Never understood why people were so high on Bramble. He beat a limited Mancini and went to the brink in the rematch. Beat Butterly Crawley and was the DESTROYED by Rosario. I liked him better when he was a wily old veteran. Like his performance vs Oba Carr, which was robbery. Although Whitaker was tough for me to watch, in his prime was there ever any fight you felt he may lose?
