    His resume at 130 is far better than it is at any other weight,particularly 140+.His performances were more impressive at that weight also eg.Corrales,Hernandez,Manfredy.Do you agree?

    yeh he was a force at SFW i rank him in top 3 at SFW

    i think Hernandez and Corrles are his 2 bes performances followed by gatti

    he didnt seeem to have the same movement at higher weights

    He completely raped Jesus Chavez at his own game

    Agree that Hernandez and Chico are his to best wins.There was a thread not long back about his top 5 wins actually.Might have been HOYA-UKs

    I thought Chavez had more success in that fight than anybody vs Mayweather barring Judah early on maybe.Saying that,he never looked in any danger of losing to me

    the good one that fought kats

    People say if hatton got inside that he would have won but chavez did and although he was doing good he got beat bad

    :goodIt has been said here before-Mayweathers ability on the inside is underrated.Hes clever with the forearm,elbow and shoulder Hatton is a perfect example

    Do you think he could drop down weights again or is he finished below the welter limit

    I'm sure he could make 140.I read the JMM fight is 144.People say his 0 is the biggest prize in boxing.If somebody wants to dent his record they should be prepared to step up and meet his demands I suppose

    Just looking at Chavez record i was watching the last fight vs Kats in a house like "just ins" They must have hated Kats real bad i usually don't chat in them things because they are usually ******s someone said he had it every round to chavez i was in stitches. People on those are the worst fans i have ever seen
