Even Lampley at that point could not imagine that Whitaker will go against De la Hoya throwing not only less punches than he did against Hurtado but at times not throwing punches at all. Unfortunately the brilliance of Pernell was overshadowed by Tyson, then Roy Jones and Tito. He was just the best boxer ever in the wrong division at the wrong time.
sean85live you are nothing but a piece of shit... Penerll is good but not reason to talk that way about raft and going back to Cuba ....That's why Tito Trinidad broke Pernell jaw ..... So remeber this for ur coments you are a piece of crap.... many people die on rafts coming out of comunism for your stupid coments..
@santiaguero1968 Firstly learn to type, secondly as dangerous as it is to come over on a raft, getting seven shades of shit beaten out of u by lefts is much worse, so go wipe off the excess water on your back, and get back to shovelling shit out of my back yard, or i'll call the INs, or send your sorry ass to Arizona.
This is some of the worse decision making by a referee by not stopping this fight about 7 punches sooner. Hurtado was defenseless and had he not fallen in between the ropes, it would've kept going....
I remember this fight, He beat the shit out of him in the 11th, all with lefts too, he knocked that boy back on his little wooden float/raft back to cuba lol
Sweet pea gets alot of hate on here from little mexican fags, cos they know none of their boxers have half the skill this boy posessed, they had to rely on 'no way jose' suleiman and their crooked ass judges to stop the great one getting wins against fagolden boy and mr 'I lost again freddie pendleton lol'

Hurtado beat Whitetaker....the referee sucks...low blows, hit on the back of the neck, pretty much a desperate Whitetaker...a very dirty fighter...he was losing!!
Great Vid man. I remember this as the fight before De LaHoya. I remember watching then and saying my boy is in trouble. Glad he came through in the end. I decided to look for this fight on youtube. I was watching the Chavez and Whitaker fight (first viewed in 2006 because I was in bootcamp at the time of the fight) and wondered if the Hurtado fight was available. Thanks for posting. First time seeing it since the night of the actual fight.
Well in the 11th it defo. was.Thats what makes this fight special,an aging master pullin out all the stops(bearing in mind Whitaker was a defensive master)to insure one more big pay day
Damw hitting like he was in a bar... Never a boxer stylish at all...
