What did Chavez have in the Camacho fight that he didn't in the Whitaker fight (other than a hack fighter in front of him)?
McGirt and Chavez fight nothing alike though. Whitaker can be appointed, but with Chavez's style I find it hard to believe.
Good points, that was a brutal stoppage by Chavez, and a great win for Ramirez against Pea. How do you see a prime for prime match up going? Do...
Depends. Chavez demolished Haugen more completely, but the Haugen that fought Chavez was not the same Haugen than fought Whitaker.
Meldrick 9-3.

Just bumping this thread to post an interesting pre-fight interview with Chavez. Has English translation with it....

He has his hands full with a 40 year old Zaragoza too.
Fullmer-Basilio I for Basilio (But Basilio showed how tought he was in every fight) Chavez-Camacho for Camacho Saldivar-Winstone II for Winstone...
There might have been better eras, but as a year, 1982 is hard to top. Certainly there hasn't been anything close to it since...
You mean by pure stats (e.g. number of defences) or actual quality of fighters faced? In the former it might not even be close, in the latter, I...
Ok, question to the people that think Ernesto Marcel isn't great: Are the following fighters great, and if so, what makes them great and Ernesto...
This is one of the first fights I ever watched. I didn't score it the first couple of times I watched it, and I didn't feel the decision was...
There's 4 known bouts with Marcel out there against Arguello, Duran, Kuniaki Shibata and Antonio Gomez. All four are essential viewing if you're...
