    Correct me if I'm wrong but I don't remember JCC ever fighting at 126.

    No worries:good. For whatever it's worth, it's an intriguing matchup at 130.

    Chavez never fought at 126.

    I believe if they had actually fought at 130 lbs. or 135 lbs. Chavez would have won a decision.

    This exactly.

    Chavez a little too skilled, too strong, and too durable for Nelson.

    Azumah would win on points.

    I would probably agree, but can't get it out of my head that Chavez had a real rough time with Juan LaPorte at 130.
