De La Hoya resulted to going back to the amateurs as far how he threw his punches , Pernell was controlling the fught even though in defense of Oscar he made the fight close , but Pernell was the vet with more skilled and Oscar was a great fighter with a solified resume Whitaker was by far was Oscar's toughest opponent
I think sweat pea is too good for his own good, he dodges punches too fast and blocking in between, you have to slow it down to appreciate it. I think that's what made him loose the fight.
hahah Parnell thinks he controlled the fight, he is dreaming.. Oscar beat him in every way and dictated the action, parnell did nothing but show boat, all the while doing nothing significant.
Oscar beat him convincingly.. Simple as that.. First 5 rounds straight easily, could of still been 7 or 8 straight. Would been an even larger gap if not for the trip that was ruled a knockdown.
Sweet P schooled Oscar. To his credit, Oscar tried adjustment after adjustment after adjustment, but nothing worked. Whitaker was brilliant, and deserved the win (same as he did with Chavez and Ramirez).
Oscar power punches had less effect than Whitaker jabs. Oscar lost this fight wasn't even close. Oscar had better case vs Floyd, he won like 5 rounds in dat one, still lost. Older version of Oscar did better vs Floyd vs old Whitaker.
We fans ain't stupid and of course the guy for HBO was Oscar de la Hoya at the time cus people thought he was going to dropped and ko trinidad and ran like chicken de la Hoya he was
He actually outboxed Nd punched Tito . His only fault was cruising the last two Rds .. He gave him a fckin' Boxing lesson [Before BHop did at the Garden] You call it running , Tito didn't nd wasn't able to do much with DLH that nite [Without the judges]
Total punch’s landed Whittaker 232 of those 160 were jabs so hooks uppercuts and right hands were only 72 that landed. Let’s look at Oscar total punch’s landed 191 of those 45 were jabs. So hooks uppercuts and right hands landed 146. So who is the better fighter? Who won the fight? I’d agree with the judges.
You forgot that he landed at a higher percentage. He landed more at a higher rate and scored the fights only knockdown. So statistically he had the advantage.
@@jalynharden978 no he didn’t. De la Hoya was touching him up badly. You can see in round 10 how bad Whittaker looked lol. Know boxing. Castillo whooped Floyd. 115-113. That was a real robbery fight
@@lilpan1187 De La Hoya only scored some glancing "power" shots that never got Sweet Pea into any kind of danger. While Sweet Pea outboxed, outjabbed and outscored De La Hoya, while also scoring more knockdowns against a 10 yr younger fighter. Not even mentioning Sweet Pea's ring generalship and his entertainment value. It was a commercial and financial decision made beforehand to be able to milk as much money as possible from the "Golden Boy", please face that.
sad boxing treats its legends like this. Guy was the champ, clearly won 7 of 12 rounds and dropped him. he won the fight. Was in full control with his jab alone.
No Hispanic fighter has ever beaten a top notch black fighter without controversy besides duran when he fought Leonard and even then leonard still beat him in the rematch im talking about upper level pound for pound type fighters not regular ones
@@LanceBoyle-z2g LOL you just changed his statement top notch black to great black fighter who doesn't fight like a mexican style. Barkley and Paul Williams were top notch fighters. And on their day they were great fighters too - them fighting in a mexican style doesn't make them less great. Like how you changed the goal posts
Those days were gone before you/I were even born. Boxing is scored by three judges, round by round, with a 10 point must system. Whitaker was hitting and not getting hit (boxing).
@@John.Flower.Productions you must beat the Champ convincely. It's more to be a Champ than the belt. That's why we have (faces of boxing) now. The pedigree is missing ⚖️⚖️⚖️
For all the people saying Whitaker won nd Knowing that typically lighter skinned people cut nd bruise more?WHY does Pernell have a closed eye nd and a knot on his forehead nd swollen right cheek?While De La Hoys doesn't have a Scratch?And this is like a Week later or whatever nd Pernells brusises still in effect nd eye still closed.THESE ARE FACTS I AM STATING NOT OPINIONS.
Dumbest fucking comment I've read in a long time. Suggesting a boxer lost a fight because he's got more bruises than the other guy. If you don't know shit about boxing why are you here writing bullshit comments?
@alexandrosanchez6501 I like Delahoya. He's a great boxer. I think he could have been one of the only boxers to defeat Floyd Mayweather if he would have changed his plan and fought his traditional style. With that being said Pernell Whitaker was another level. You couldn't touch him. He outclassed his opponents and made it look too easy. In my opinion , he's one of the best underrated pound for pound boxers ever. He left out the fight exactly the way he went in because Delahoya clearly could not connect any meaningful shots the entire fight. It was clearly a robbery and why so much controversy surrounds the that situation.
All i can say is both fighters were fantastic. Rest easy Sweet Pea.

Delahoya won... like Whitaker very great movement head and style
Whitaker won he out landed him in total punches stop playing but of course you Hispanic though that's all what that is
He wouldn't even give a rematch
Just like chavez
hahah Parnell thinks he controlled the fight, he is dreaming.. Oscar beat him in every way and dictated the action, parnell did nothing but show boat, all the while doing nothing significant.
Homeruns vs base hits...Oscar controlled the Tempo..imposed himself...BS Slick Athletic

Bullshit lying
I thought Sweet Pea won the fight, no offense to Oscar. Both are great fighters. God bless you Mr. Whitaker. 🙏🏼❤️
"I didnt know what I was doing"
"The game plan was all wrong"

Basically admitting defeat with those words in this interview

Pernel beat oscar!
DLH beat Whittaker . Not just straight defense wins you fights . Pernell couldn’t even touch DLH🇲🇽🥊
He landed more though wym💀
@@jalynharden978 Whittaker didn’t land more 😂😂😂😂. He was using defence all night. Watch the fight
@@Factsoverfeels8 bro watch the video he literally got outlanded only thing he landed more was power punches by 2%

That was def a win for Pernell RIP

not as bad as the Chavez decision but I still think Pernell took it
Hahahah common mate, Oscar easily ran away with that fight. there is no world in which PArnell won that fight.

A punch, a graze, head clash anything can cause marks or abrasions on a face to occur. It has zero to do with how a fight is scored.
I had it a close fight I hope they got paid well
Robbery
Pernell beat him easily
No way

@@kingdomofanimaria very good question. I say Sugar Ray Robinson. Those guys were gladiators back then. They were built different.
Did you see Castillo beat Mayweather like a rug?
Oscar is the best!!!!
Oscar wears panties. Clearly he's not. He's lost several times.
Pernell was a dirty fighter imo
How? Sweetpea was the SUPERIOR fighter!
Whitaker lost like a bum and died like a bum
No de la hoyas the crossdresser

Your a Sad pathetic little boy
De la hoya won clearly whitaker gave away the 12 round by just runing clawning so the judges didnt like to judge circus they like fights .
Clearly he lost this fight. Judges were biased for the golden boy, no way he lost 5 of the last 7 rds
Judges like it when Mayweather did it tho
@@oillizmNo oscar won clearly you moron
Wait he landed more punches & scored a knockdown & lost? 😂
