His opponents may look as if they are coping well early on but Chavez would always be in control, and it would only be a matter of time before the lead right hands and left hooks to the body took there toll.

Chavez a technician? Lmfao. Against who Tijuana cab drivers. You guys are too much. Yet another Mexican brawler with two left feet who brawls with uneducated pressure wildly.

I think I'd have to go along with Addie on that one.

Chavez was a brawler, no doubt about it. If you gave him a bit of movement he was done for.

You're thinking of Duran. Chavez couldn't best guys with skill; he had to be bigger and stronger so he could wear you down with his wild swings.

An educated pressure fighter. If all it took was a bit of movement to defeat Chavez then he would have lost a lot sooner than he did. The likes of Aguilar, Mayweather, Pratchett etc. all offered movement to no avail. It took a Pernell Whitaker to get the better of Julio, and there's no shame in being bested by Sweet Pea.

AlFrancis · 12-14-2012, 01:44 PM

He was a brawler but he was more than just that. You can't fight in close at that level for all that time the way he did without taking clean shots back unless you've got something about you.

That fight was a draw. Lol. Roger Mayweather was a glass jawed timid joke.

JCC would tear through the divisions today. He'd be winning up at 154lbs. Just sayin'.

What's with classic guys acting like guys like Mayweather could fight? Chavez beat bums. Bums! Had he come along ten years later Zab Judah would've schooled him!

Yeah right. If Frankie Randall can easily beat him in his prime what would even Kermit Cintron do to him? Boxing has developed since Chavez's time. JMM would KTFO Chavez

If you'd Terry Norris and 'all the way to cruiserweight' I'd be more inclined to support your view.

On a more serious note, I can't think of a worse style match-up for Judah.

Adrien Broner could have gone 100-0 against Chavez opposition.
