    Does the taller boxer in Accavallo keep the rampaging Chang at bay, or would the Korean Hawk's unorthodox and frenzied attack give him the advantage?

    Yes it would, Accavallo was a fine fighter and would make it competitive throughout but Chang would be far too relentless and busy for the Argentine to overcome.

    Chang UD Accavallo

    I think Chang would win, some unrelenting, fast, and accurate punching would get him a clear decision for me.

    Changs furious attack would catch up to accavallo in the later rounds. Jung Koo 12 TKO.

    Not every single fight ends in a stoppage, especially one between a smaller fighter who was never known for his power against a bigger man who proved his skills and durability against the best the division had to offer.

    I go for Chang on the basis that he looked very good fighting a taller man in Zapta. Styles make fights but I don't know enough about Accavallo to be perfectly honest. Hope this suffices.

    I wanna say Chang but I havent seen anything of Accavallo...Though it would take a pretty good fighter to beat Ebihara twice..provided those bouts were both on the level.

    Very good point. I wish that I'd seen more of him to be honest, seems an intriguing matchup, styles-wise

    Bit of a stylistic nightmare for Accavallo. Chang would win too many of the early to mid rounds before Horacio can establish himself. The last third of the fight will be the best for the steady, earnest Accavallo, but Chang will have it in the bag by then. 9-6 type of decision.

    Well I have seen pretty much everything out there on Accavallo now and what a matchup this would be. Chang will just do the far better work throughout as the Argue doesn't have the punch to dissuade him and could be swarmed.

    Chang beats Tanabe as well. But not Harada, absolutely no chance, he'd get 'Chang-ed' there. Ebihara would have a good chance of picking the sharp shots out against Chang, and a far more reliable, consistent and durable southpaw than Zapata, only far less dynamic and slick.

    I would say Chang might well be the 2nd and 3rd most formidable flyweight I've ever seen though.
