    yeah, I thought the rounds whittaker won he won big whereas chavez' rounds were all closer, I think this gave the impression whittaker won clearly. but my scorecard read Chavez by 1. some big rounds for whittaker but more consistency from chavez

    Pryor's attack would be too much for JCC. I like the Hawk by comfortable UD.

    I think you are spot on here. Although Pryor certainly might win a close decision, I am leaning towards Chavez by a hair.

    I went with Chavez by points. I think Pryor is quick and agile and unpredictable and just "off" enough to keep Chavez from being able to string together enough good punches to take him out.

    Good fight, this one isn't easy for Chavez. You just couldn't move him, though.

    Great fight, but Chavez busts Aaron up over 8-9 rounds.

    Aaron will not be able to knock the iron chinned Chavez out, also, everyone is simply forgetting what a lethal body puncher Chavez was.

    Chavez was stronger, hit harder, more accurate, and a devastating body puncher. Aaron loses this one clearly.

    Great fight while it lasts.

    Tough call, two great warriors, this would not be a boring fight.
    I can't see Pryor stopping Chavez, no matter how I try. I could maybe see a decision if Aaron boxed, and he was a good boxer, I just don't think he would be able to resist the lure of the battle.
    JCC also had much better defence than he seems to be getting credit for, and he had a solid chin as well. I think he could take what Pryor gave, and I think he could hurt Aaron in ways that Alexis could not, at 140 lbs.
    I see a war, and an early Pryor lead, and then a Chavez tko. I don't feel the Chavez vs. Whittaker comparision holds much water for this matchup. Aside from both being great fighters, Pernell and Pryor are chalk and cheese.

    Proyor destroy Chavez?? That's quite possibly the most re**** thing I've read on this forum, the man easily has a top 10 ATG chin, Chavez could be outboxed, even outclassed but destroyed? GTFO. Go back to your buddies in the loony bin rooster :hi:

    Oh and by the way Norris win over Leonard means absolutely nothing either :yep

    I'll go with Chavez. Pryor was too wide open and would be hurting by the championship rounds.

    When l try and pick an outcome with this type of fight l usually focus on who has the better defense and straighter punches. So l'm picking Chavez but honestly l wouldn't bet money on the outcome of this fight because pryor would probably look like the busier fighter. He'd be throwing more but landing less.

    The funniest part of this thread is some of the Chavez haters have actually compared The Hawk with Whitaker, and Taylor, and used them as examples of why Aaron would win. One is possibly the greatest defensive master ever, the other, a guy with blinding speed.

    Priceless.

    No way. Chavez would fight in the trenches and nullify Arguello's power. Chavez would rough him up. The Chavez that fought Rosario would do the same to any version of Arguello.

    First off Chavez did not edge out Frankie Randall. Randall was robbed in the rematch .. what an absolute Don King hustle .. putting that aside Chavez Pryor would have been some super fight .. I just don't know ..
