JT is shot to ****, and would be a perfect JCC jr opponent, a big name who has nothing left in the tank, who he can KO, something I'd hate to see. In his prime, JT would dominate and embarass JCC jr.
I'm not too high on Chavez, but he beats the living crap out of JT at this point. Chavez jr. T/KO12 In his prime he would clearly beat or maybe dominate current jr.
Taylor has no business in the ring with Chavez at this point. He would have to come through with a very impressive win over someone halfway descent to convince me otherwise. I dont see Taylor making a big statement in his return to the sport, but if he is matched up with (1) other former stars on the decline, (2) another fighter struggling to get back to a higher level such as Williams, or (3) guys with low KO ratios like Sturm, he could give us a few entertaining fights. But in regard to Chavez, Taylor would get eaten alive.
i thought we were talking about chavez sr vs meldrick taylor. my bad, this kind of fight happens all too often, where a sometimes shot, way past his best fighter is fed to a upcoming young fighter, so he can have a big name on his record (see alvarez against mosley and baldomir). dont be fooled by taylor's comeback win against a -500 fighter, he looked good, but the opponent was'nt much.
Right now, Jr would dominate Taylor and probably stop him late. Prime Taylor, most likely wins a UD, after dominating early and then fading down the stretch.
The Taylor who fought Carl Froch Beats the **** out of Chavez Jr. Even the Taylor Now with that right game plan of the basic "Stick and move" could beat chavez jr if he did that now!
