[@thankgodmusic]

Even though y’all almost messed the interview up in the beginning the weird energy was great on camera you should partner with dude again🙏🏾 God bless you brotha and RIP Pernell Whitaker

[@stephaniejones4942]

RIP Pernell I loved him as a fighter he was a left handed southpaw he was very fast and busy and great on defense avoiding punches like Roy Jones and Mayweather , Pernell like these other guys was a defense master and great fighter. So sorry hes gone he was a great fighter and a legend and hes was not that big or tall.

[@brandonlovessports1866]

Boxers look so similar. For some reason they have the boxing face. I see Crawford, Hopkins, and Frazier when I see him. But he is the man I always compare Terrence Crawford to. Sweet Pea was one of my favorite fighters

[@AB1DE]

Great interview, thanks for putting this together! Sweat Pea top 3 Boxers!!

[@jeremyjordan6786]

[@DAK272]

[@judofan8788]

[@majikmoments9933]

I saw him fight Ramirez at the Scope. He was in great shape and hard to hit.

[@calebminer3313]

I loved this interview

[@jimmyspears4816]

Rip champ greatest fighter ever lived

[@Remingtonrighthand__]

Y'all tryin too hard with this news interview stuff like just speak to the man instead of tryna be one of those reporters

[@eastwood_ib2126]

Yeah they definitely trying wayyy too hard I hate it. And that intro was so unnecessary smh. Terrible

[@tidewatercliff8062]

Rested up coach

[@chrismale9976]

Great champion. Rip Sweat pea miss you

[@williamperrett8179]

Sad. Pernell sounds really damaged. In the ring he was so elusive but I guess , as with Wilfredo 'Radar' Benitez, he learnt to avoid punches in the ring by taking plenty in sparring.

[@rasulsamad5860]

Nah drugs probably

[@MrComic97]

Hmm

[@DHILLA-yz4rx]

bruh I wanted a p interview for years!

[@nicolas4you]

Honestly Pernell was the most complete fighter I've ever seen he's one of the only fighters that could in my mind defeat a prime Duran, who was the best fighter at lightweight since Armstrong who was way before my time. If Pernell had stayed at lightweight there is no telling how long he would have been Champ. Only thing to beat him would have been his lifestyle. Talent wise he's top 10 All-time pound for pound

[@gregorybrown7397]

Whitaker,Pep,Mayweather,Robinson,Ali are the greatest defensive fighters of all time.

[@surveying482]

Robinson? Ali of the 60s yeah

[@WakaZOfficial]

Rip

[@khalidnamar8723]

This is awful. Two host sitting on the same couch, starting off the interview talking about themselves. This reeks of an infomercial.

[@williamsanders4495]

🔥 🔥

[@ShaderockLouis]

Local favorite who my trainer told me to “watch”. Southpaw phenom DMV “Sweet Pea” , be bliss champion.

[@ryanscarborough6703]

Sweet Pea got robbed in that Chavez fight. I've lived by that rule he said about letting the fans judge the fight. Scorecards are never going to get better so don't let it ruin your love of the sport. We all know who won. An all time great RIP

[@manny3384]

🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿

[@peanutmalteser]

Didnt pernell on July 14 2019 die and this was in 2020

[@bankztheone]

Damm rip sweat pea 🤦🏽‍♂️

[@711marvel]

Pernell look like he had demons, like he was on that shyyt, I'm just saying. He was known for defense, he ain't get hit like that. So you can't say it's from boxing, but rest in peace Pernell,❗

[@ivanmiller3826]

( The Most High ) GOD ✡️ ❤️🔥❤️ (( SWEET - PEA )) WHITAKER 🔥

[@Charles310a]

Why did they call him sweet??

[@ShaderockLouis]

His family member made a statement on KZbin I saw last week (I think it had something to do with being little “sweet pea”); sorry I missed the mark but I am studying champ and expect to find that video again soon.

[@josebarrera7908]

Cause he was different and they called him pee cause he was pretty small

[@blackhoodie4170]

It was supposed to be "Sweet Pete" but the reporter misunderstood and misspelled it as Sweet Pea, actually. Alot of people don't know this.

[@Max-qi4pi]

What’s up with you cutting him off when he’s obviously not done talking, saying “ we have a break” like no you don’t that shit weak asf showing no type of respect

The original runner 🏃‍♂️ and clincher
