    I still think to this day one of the most classless acts I've ever seen in the ring is Chavez yelling out '**** You' to Richard Steele after the first Randall fight.

    The ungrateful *****.

    McGrain: I love Carl Froch as well.

    As for Little; I've read up on him but the only footage I've seen of him is nigh on breaking the neck of a hapless Jap'. Any more floating around?

    And Chavez stated at the IBHOF induction that Meldrick Taylor was the greatest moment of his career and best fighter he faced in the ring.

    Gonzalez is a nice little fighter - it would be interesting to see what he can achieve in the future.

    Hes quality to watch, his career has gone right off the boil lately though, a year back or so he was being heavily touted.

    Yeah, I've noticed too.

    Gonzalez doesn't seek the best opposition possible,
    fighters duck him,
    or he isn't popular enough to get big fights?

    What's the problem?
