#HBD: #PernellWhitaker
• He's a 4x division world champion
• In 1989, Whitaker was named Fighter of the Year by The Ring magazine and the Boxing Writers Association of America.
• From 1993 to 1997, The Ring ranked him as the best active boxer in the world, pound for pound.
A southpaw, Whitaker was known for his outstanding defensive skills and for being a strong counterpuncher. He was not a particularly hard puncher or knockout artist, but applied a consistent offense while being extremely elusive and difficult for his opponents to hit with a solid punch.
