I've seen speed and I've seen speed but has anyone ever seen moves like this??? Before Roy Jones, there was Hector Camacho Dare I say it, he would be one of the rare fighters capable of putting a whipping on Floyd anyone disagree?
Camacho was exposed by Rosario, his head movement wasn`t that good and he didn`t have the power to keep pressure fightes like Chavez off him, I think Floyd would have beat Chavez.
everything he did was just so proper, and left handed to boot that defense! that foot speed. those reflexes! too many skills. too much speed. so much versatility. genius boxing IQ You have to ask yourself, "What would Floyd do?"
he got caught and discombobulated him That is Rosario's strength. He has great one punch power but is not nearly the fighter Chavez was. In fact, Chavez was nigh indestructible in his prime so Edwin's power was meaningless and was unable to escape Julio's punishing attack However, as they say "styles" ask Louden, he alone understands this concept like few others. He said that if Frazier beats Ali, and Foreman beats Frazier, then it is inevitable that Ali must beat Foreman! and for the same reason, I like Camacho over Chavez and even Floyd.
Expected that reply. Did you not see Taylor completely out box Chavez for the majority of the fight? Any other ref would not have stopped the fight
At 135 pounds in a 15 round match I think Chavez would come from behind to beat Floyd though Floyd winning a close decision ain't impossible. At 130 against Comacho I'd take Hector to out speed him.
Expected that reply to that reply. No, there was no boxing lesson and Taylor did not completely outbox Chavez for the majority of the fight. He had faster flashier hands no doubt and was landing more punches and was ahead on points but Chavez was still hitting him throughout and his punches were far more damaging. You can rightly argue that the fight shouldn’t have been stopped and Taylor should have won on point but there was no boxing lesson by Taylor.
He has a shot, and I used to think so, but Mayweather jr. has stronger boxing ability and Camacho would lose a close decision.
