    :hi:

    The debate seems to be whether or not Oscar and Pea really won more than the question asked. And that he ran against Chavez? Gimme a break, he beat Chavez up on the inside in their prolonged exchanges and had him going backwards at times. I had Pea winning by two over Oscar in a close bout, though I had Pea winning pretty much all criteria.

    Pretty good puncher if you ask me startching almost all his 130,135 opponets,Vargas,Mayorga,Carr with one of the best hooks in the 90s,very close to KOing a prime Ike Quartey. Whats it 40 wins 30 KOs ? Or 39 and 30 or 31 something close thats damn good when you have spent your career fighting contenders and champs.

    They just never seen him fight or that fight in particular. There just listening to a bunch of bitter Mexican fans

    oscarøs power was exceptional BEFORE he started chasing paydays tbh.

    btw - quartey came closer to KO'ing oscar than oscar did to him.

    A wayyy past prime Pernell was able to go the distance with Trinidad and win a couple of rounds in the process and even had Trinidad nose bleeding in the first round.

    To Mexican Legend - Chavez had the opportunity to fight Whitaker on the inside but guess what?! He did not have the skill or speed to deal with Whitaker. You can call Whitaker a little girl, a runner, clown (or whatever juvenile adjectives you have floating around in that head of yours) but the fact remains: Chavez got schooled.

    End of story

    a lot of people knocked tito down in the first 3 rounds.

    but he made a habit of starching all of them later in the fight.
