Chavez-Taylor Documentary (awesome Duva lie)

Nice.

 

2 seconds or 6 seconds it doesn't matter Chavez wouldn't have done anything with that little ammount of time left. It still doesn't change the fact that Taylor was robbed by Steele that night and he was going to win if it had gone to the cards period.:deal

 

Count off 6 seconds and tell me thats not enough to at the very least land another shot if not more.

6 seconds is an enormous amount of time for a fighter who does'nt know where the hell he's at!

Pimp C's argument is the most biased and unreasonable position that I've read on the Chavez-Taylor stoppage.
In essence, without knowing it, his position is that Steele should have just waited for whatever seconds there were left in the fight and then signaled the fight over to go to the scorecards!
You cant get more biased and unreasonable than that.

:rofl :rofl :rofl :rofl

 

And yours is even worse. Saying Chavez would have done enough in 6 seconds to stop or hit Taylor is stupid at best, Chavez didn't have the fastest handspeed nor did he have the fastest footspeed either. Taylor could have put his guard up or tied Chavez up you don't know anymore than I do, so get off your high horse. All of this coming from a guy who thought Chavez beat Sweet Pea. :rofl :-( Taylor knew where he was he beat the count and should have been allowed to continue in a fight he had won period. Steele did a horrible job that night knowing it was the last round and knowing Talyor was winning the fight he didn't notice or ignored the red light to signal 10 seconds left in the round. Taylor should have been allowed to continue, he beat the count.:deal

 

according to the ref Taylor was unable to continue - doesnt matter how many seconds are left - unable to continue means unable to continue. Chavez won within the time alotted, fair and square.

 

I have to agree , it's like watching a man be physically ruined in front of your eyes . Very sad .

Contrast that with the Foreman v Moorer one , who unless you're Michael Moorer you'll go away from with a fufilling feeling .

 

If Steele hadn't stopped it, Chavez would have been robbed.

Say there was in fact 2 seconds left in the fight when Steele waved it off. It doesn't change anything.

Chavez caught Taylor and dropped him in regulation time.

Taylor got up, received a fair count, and beat it, though he was obviously hurt.

Steele asked him if he was okay twice. Taylor didn't clearly respond in the affirmative. He looked towards his cornerman and then looked back at Steele in kind of a dazed way. Not enough. You need to clearly communicate that you are focused and aware. He didn't do that. Lennox did in the McCall fight, and can therefore justly complain about the stoppage, but that's another argument.

You are not required to be able to defend yourself for 11 rounds, 2 minutes and 58 seconds. Time doesn't enter into it if you're hurt. To say "Chavez didn't have time to lay another punch on him" is a) wrong, and b) means Chavez would have been robbed. He rendered Taylor unable to continue fair and square, inside the allotted timeframe. Only just, but he stopped him in time.

:hat

 

Correct.

 

I agree wholeheatedly but there is no right answer to this question. Meldrick Taylor has only his memories and what could have been, the memory of victory that he feels was denied him. If the choice was his he might be prepared to take the risk of greater harm for the certain victory he would have achieved if he survived the last few seconds available to Chavez to KO Taylor.
