    I had prepared a suitably lengthy and vitriolic response in my head, but then I got called out to work and haven't had any time to get on here since. And today I watched Chavez vs Rosario again, as me and a friend had an 80s afternoon. Even though I honestly believe that rating Chavez above Whitaker is absolutely unjustifiable and stupid, I'm not in the right mindset to criticize anyone for their rating of JCC. The guy landed 61% of his punches vs Rosario. And I'm a sucker for infighting. You've got me on a good day you lucky lad. :good
