Message: [QUOTE="Chin Diesel, post: 3216542, member: 34"] I think the highlights showed Whitaker's defense and speed slipping punches and getting out of corners with ease. Also showed Whitaker with the knockdown in the 9th and showed de la Hoya hitting heavier punches. CompuBox had Whitaker with a huge advantage in jabs 160-45 but de la Hoya had a big advantage in power shots 146-72. As I remember the controversy was more on the size of the victory for de la Hoya. If it was a split decision or all within a round or two, not nearly as much controversy. [URL unfurl="true"]https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pernell_Whitaker_vs._Oscar_De_La_Hoya[/URL] [/QUOTE]
