  1. @45:00 best part
    A old out of prime Jose luis ramirez outboxed schooled and beat a prime Perrnal whitaker easy and yet you got some whitaker fans and fools who think that whitaker the runner won haha mayweather and whitaker fans are the main ones that always say you cant win a fight by simply coming foward but guess what nor does a boxer who fights by runing backwards most of the entry fight dont win fights like that either the main point is that in boxing is a combate sport where you have too go toe to toe hit without getting hit ex change punches while at the same time dodging each others punches thats how the orlginal boxing comate fight was and is til this day but you got black boxers like whitaker and gayweather and some others who fight by runing backwads they call it defense fighting but that is not true is more like runing defense becasue real fighting defense is fighting like juan maneul marquez black people are cowards they dont how too fight toe to toe while hiting your opponect and dodging his hits at the same time thats why they run backwards why becaue they know they will lose too any mexican boxer toe to toe they know dont understand that in order for you too win you have too fight foward not backwards in wars the ones who go forward win the wars in street fights is the same thing while thats how boxing is the one who is going forward is the one who is looking for the fight too win the one who is runing backwards is only trying too surive the fight there is a real reason why the rest of the world saw whitaker lose this fight because ramirez was forcing him too run round the ring thats genaral ring control also when whitaker hit ramirez
    ramirez would still go forward but when ramirez hit whitaker
    whitkaer would run backwards thats the diffence as well chavez oscar de la hoya tito trindad beat whitaker as well not too sound mean but there is a real reason why blacks became slaves too the white men even without trying too defend their freedoms from the white masters like t or not that is the truth period end of story cant change truth

  2. Whitaker solo salió a correr y abrazar al zurdazo por eso lo abuchearon y por eso la decisión no buscó el intercambio de golpes en los 80 no había tanta corrupción en el boxeo y más fuera de USA

  3. Puede gustar o no el estilo de Pernell, a mí nunca me gustó para nada, pero de que ganó esa pelea, la ganó y por mucho. Como buen mexicano, siempre apoyaré a mis guerreros Aztecas, pero como persona de integridad, siempre daré mérito y honor a quien lo merece.

  4. En la pelea que tuvo con argüello fue robado descaradamente, incluso el mexicano mando a la lona a argüello y lamentablemente se la robaron, un grande del boxeo mundial

  5. Not the robbery people say it was. Whitaker was putting on a clinic for the first 5 rounds but slowed down and was getting clipped with hard shots round 6 onwards. I had it a draw.

  6. Don King and Mexican WBC Pres Jose Sulaiman badly wanted a unification bout between Ramirez and brand new WBA champ JC Chavez. They tried to get this fight cancelled after it had beeen finalized. ABC refused, so King and Sulaiman influenced 2 of the judges to ensure a Ramirez victory.

  7. No había visto esta pelea, qué espantoso peleaba withaker, corrió un maratón en esta pelea y cada que estaban cerca se abrazaba. Y qué vergüenza de comentaristas. Excelente pelea de José Luis Ramírez.

  8. My two Favorite parts 1 @45:00 seeing Ramirez celebrating his victory and @45:10 seeing Whitaker crying in defeat

    Thoses USA Biased Commentarys don't know nothing about true boxing they did not like the decision because their favorite USA boxer got beat by a Great Mexican Champion boxer like it or not Ramirez won Framce was right along with other nations boxing sports who also saw Ramirez as the rightful winner

    An old out of prime Jose Luis Ramirez BEAT Perrnal Whitaker and gave him his first LOSS Whitaker thought because Ramirez was out of his prime he was going too win instead he got a boxing lesson from the great champion Jose luis Ramirez

    Whitaker fans like it or not your boy Perrnal Whitaker got BEAT by a great Mexican champion

    NO matter how good a black boxer might be there will always be a mexican boxer who will beat them why because God made us mexicans for that very reason we have everything thing that a real fighter boxer has too beat them

    Perrnal Whitaker remains me of Floyd Gayweather Jr who also was undefeated at 27-0 in 2002 but all that changed when Floyd Mayweather jr got BEAT by a great out of prime boxer named Jose Luis Castillo who clearly out boxed and beat Floyd Mayweather easy

  9. Whitaker un peleador marrullero y correlon igual de arrogante y pretencioso que su entrenador Lou Duva. Ramírez definitivamente tiene que estar en el salón de la fama del boxeo,un grande del boxeo de México para el mundo.

  10. Si Leonard le hubiese boxeado a Duran en la primera se lo gana facil .pero de hombre se paró a fajarse..En la segunda se vió la superiridad del Sugar.. Pernel se para a pelear y pierde..en revancha ganó sobrao

  11. Going backwards is no easy way to win fights. You have to make up for it somehow and Pernell wasn't that type of fighter. Overrated imo.

  12. Vine a ver está pelea por Erik Morales que le estaba haciendo una entrevista de un raun más era un mstruo este mexicano ganar witeker no era fácil y le ganó

  13. El mejor guerrero pero tuvo mala suerte tenía a una leyenda en su división julio César Chávez pero si en el box ganará el de más corazón sería el campeón José Luis Ramírez nunca te rendiste podrías perder o ganar pero diste tu máximo y eso se valora en el boxeo hoy los boxeadores no dan el extra porque no hay hambre de triunfo ati te pongo dentro de los primeros 10

  14. Jose Luis ramirez #1 no como canelo puros pichones y ni a si levanta no nukea a nadie nomas a los que hace subir de peso como josesito lopes amirkan es la neta

  15. En esa pelea zurdo se vió muy fuera de distancia fallando muchos volados y solo tiraba un golpe. No le vi el uno dos, ni el uno dos tres ni gancho al higado y menos el oper. Y pernel muy correlon.
