    That was some funny ****. You got all of these Chavez's opponents giving it the big talk, "I'm going to kick his ass", is exactly what Camacho said. They all took beatings, and then Haugen shoots himself in the foot by coming and saying, "Chavez has beat 60 cab drivers". He would then proceed to take an horrendous beating in front of a stupendous amount of people, and go home empty handed. I love this fight. It's such an event, and Chavez looks masterful in beating the living **** out of Greg Haugen, who brought it upon himself.

    Maybe I'm a bit of a sadist, but I can watch this fight over and over. Always brings me back to childhood and the last glory days for Chavez.

    This fight might also have my single favorite chavez punch, the ridiculously nasty overhand right that he hits Haugen with at just about a minute into this video:

    How Haugen didn't go right out with that shot, I'll never know. Whatever you want to say about Haugen, he's got guts, determination, and a heck of a chin.
