    Aaron by close ud, was something Chavez wasn't used to at all.....a hard force of nature.

    Apart from Gary Hinton.



    Funny, because he just that for large spells against Ramirez and Rocky Lockridge especially (arguably as good as Pryor was) and even times during the rematch with Randall.

    Great fight, but I'll take Pryor. 1) Chavez did not hit harder than Arguello @ 140. It follows that since Pryor was able to take Arguello's punches, he would've likewise been able to handle Chavez's. 2) Chavez was 5 seconds from defeat against Taylor. Pryor hit a hell of a lot harder than Meldrick, and he would've thrown as many if not more punches.
