    Chavez would chase Floyd out of the ring like he did against Macho Camacho.

    Taylor was to brave to box and he got caught up into a war, people bring up the Castillo fight but Chavez lost and got dropped by frankie Randell I think floyd pulls a close sd

    Castillo was bigger than Chavez...the size factor did play a part in Floyd struggling with him, this is true.

    But I wouldn't necessarily say Castillo was much stronger than Chavez if at all...nor was he half as good at using angles and subtle pushes and leans to move his opponent where he wanted them..JCC wasn't quite an Armstrong in this regard but he was far superior to Castillo.

    I agree. I thought Chavez was a really strong fighter. His will to win also was one of his best assets.

    Ive gone Mayweather at 140 Floyd was prime JCC wasnt . Also the foot speed would have been difficult to close.
