    Taylor or Roger weren't as complete or good as PBF was. If you can't acknowledge that then there's no need continuing this debate. PBF presents problems that these two don't offer mainly defense a chin, ring generalship, movement and the ability to adjust to all styles.:deal

    On July 7, 1985, Chavez defeated future champion Roger Mayweather via a second round knock out. Superior reach and jab...guess what Chavez destroyed him twice the second time he could take no more as he had no heart just like Fraud.

    People here seem to think you must hurt someone in order to put on a 12 round clinic.:patsch See PBF-Baldo for reference.:deal

    Bu you stated he had a weak defense my answer is when your chin is that solid your defense does not have to be perfect.

    Career in review
    Considered one of the greatest fighters in history, Chávez won six world titles in three weight divisions: WBC Super Featherweight (1984), WBA Lightweight (1987), WBC Lightweight (1988), WBC Super Lightweight (1989), IBF Light Welterweight (1990), and WBC Super Lightweight (1994). Chávez also went undefeated for 93 bouts before his first retirement with a record of 104-5-2 (80 knockouts). World champions whom Chávez defeated include Jose Luis Ramírez, Rafael Limon, Rocky Lockridge, Meldrick Taylor, Roger Mayweather, Lonnie Smith, Sammy Fuentes, Héctor "Macho" Camacho, Juan Laporte, Edwin Rosario, Greg Haugen, Tony López, Giovanni Parisi, Joey Gamache, and Frankie Randall, who had taken the WBC light welterweight belt from Chávez just four months earlier. He lost to only two champions: Oscar De La Hoya and Kostya Tszyu. He was held to a draw by two others: Pernell Whitaker and Miguel Angel Gonzalez.
    In 2002, Ring Magazine ranked Chávez as the 18th greatest fighter of the last 80 years. He was also ranked #50 on Ring Magazine's list of 100 greatest punchers of all time.

    While Floyd was indeed injured going into the first Castillo fight, it is more or less irrelevant. Floyd won under any circumstances and that is what counts.

    It's mindboggling. As absurd as that thread recently stating Floyd is a coward for not letting people hit him more often. This mentality of Boxer's proving themselves only through getting hit often must be what breeds Margarito fans in abundance around here.

    Having a solid chin just means Chavez sees the final bell. It does not mean he gets the decision on the cards unless the same judges are in the house from the Whitaker fight. Chavez's chin won't win him rounds.

    You disqualify me and then you reply to me a minute later make up your mind be a Man!

    You say Chavez this and Chavez and you dismiss people without even countering their arguments. I will admit Floyd is a talented fighter but for you to say that he would have beat Chavez easily is nonsense walking on stilts.
