Ummm... just a minute please.

At 140, too physical and too durable -- Aaron Pryor showed that.

But at 135, is anyone too slick for Arguello?
Maybe Arguello is too technically sound & experienced for Whitaker.

The Thin Man is one of the few I could see taking Sweet Pea.

Which elusive boxers did Arguello have problems with? Or are you saying he didn't?

I'm saying he did. Against Ernesto Marcel and Vilomar Fernandez in both fights with the least.

Pernell would not want to be caught by Alexis, so he does enough to stay ahead to take a close UD.
