    Chavez right hand comes when he fought Camacho, caught him with it repeatedly, plus utilized it perfectly in his previous bouts also. We all know what Floyd did Hatton with the right hand...other prime examples are Judah and Gatti (also every southpaw he ever fought).

    Who you got?

    its close,Jc´s was harder and Floyd is faster.

    i would probably pick Chavez but its a matter of taste and you cant go wrong either way.

    I agree with this. I believe Floyd was better due to it's accuracy and quickness. But Chavez's right hand was great also, although he used more as a tool to trap boxers in corners and to back them against the ropes. Floyd controlled and dominated fights with his right hand, so he get's the nod.

    Floyds three straight right hands that put Ndou on the canvas were great.

    Chavez Sr had a bone crushing right hand, Floyds is more of a set up right hand for his clean up left hook, However Floyd has a monster right uppercut

    So were the 5 straight right hands that he landed on Gatti.

    As far as the thread goes, both were awsome. I voted for Floyd based on speed and his ability to combination punch in rapid succession with the straight right as well as lead with it.

    PBF he can counter and lead with it. He can land it almost at will and there's little defense for it.:deal

    Chavez couldn't do that if his life depended on it.:deal I have yet to see anyone do that in the ring other than PBF.

    Difference is Chavez wouldn't have had to land the other 2 because he would have dropped him with the first one. I'd put it like this. If I was going to pick which one to get hit with just once I'd pick a floyd right. If I was a fighter and got to pick which one to have for myself I'd also pick a floyd right though.

    Not true he didn't drop people with it every time he landed it not even close. I prefer the accuracy of PBF's straight right hand anyday.
