    Sweet Pea, Jones and Chavez.

    If Chavez's sparring partner whooped on Floyd you could imagine what he would have done.

    That doesn't mean **** and the last time I checked PBF was 2-0 against JLC.:deal PBF owns slow handed fighters who he can beat to the punch and counter.

    So Chavez was slow? :lol::lol: He was wayyyy faster than Castillo. Meldrick was faster than Whitaker who was faster than Mayweather. It takes more than just speed to beat Chavez and that shoulder roll alone aint gonna cut it.

    Chavez was slow as hell he wasn't fast by any means. I'll give you that he could cut off a ring but his hand speed was average at best. I agree it takes more than speed it takes defense something Taylor didn't have footwork, counter-punching stamina and ring generalship things that Pea had and things that PBF have as well. I would pick PBF over JCC at any weight styles my friend.
