Pernell Whitaker - Master of the Sweet Science (Career Documentary)

The only boxer I ever talked to. He herd me singing in the dressing room and yelled out don't quit your day job. He joined in and I didn't realize it was him until I came out. We both started laughing and dapped it out. Best defensive boxer ever...

Unquestionably, one of the greatest boxers who ever lived. The man was an artist.

It's not even that his physical movement is so fast, he is literally just always positioned perfectly. Amazing to watch this fighter.

That soul glow part was absolutely hilarious....

Gone way too soon. You'll be remembered by us boxing fans forever for your amazing style and wizard style defense. Rest In Peace Sweet Pea, Pernell Whitaker.

A counter punching genius, a defensive master. What a true genius he was. An icon

My family and I use to live about a mile from his house and we would trick or treat every year in his neighborhood. We always made sure to stop by his house because he would pass out king sized candy bars 😁and he was always kind hearted. He would come out and talk to us and tell us boxing stories as well. Such a cool dude and wonderful boxer.

One of the MOST underrated boxers ever!

Pernell Sweet pea Whitaker was one hell of a boxer and I don't think he had any legitimately unquestionable losses. He arguably beat Julio Cesar Chavez and at least drew with Felix Trinidad. It's so darkly ironic how such a defensive wizard with so much heart, who could dodge everything, was run down by a careless heartless driver. Rest easy champ! You will always be in the boxing hall of Fame and on the Mount Rushmore of the sport.

Man, I remember being excited to watch his defense. The way he would duck punches was amazing

That robbery against ramirez drained a little from him then the robbery against chavez was the proverbial nail in the coffin of his confidence & natural charisma. This man was one of the top 2 boxers of the 80s & a top 5 fighter in the 90s..those robberies affected his confidence & spirit even tho the physical skills were still there. It matters when your unbeaten record is stolen from you & your career affected unjustly through no fault of his own. No telling where his legacy & career would've went by the decision makers getting those decisions right.

Rest In Peace and in Power Sweet Pea Whittaker May God Bless Your Soul.. Pound For Pound One of The Greatest Of All-Time No Question

This fighter appears to perceive his opponents actions in the very instant that they are occurring to due to his phenomenal mental power. Truly amazing. His fights just look like he's playing around.
