    Prime for prime. I think this would be a great matchup: for me it's a very close call and near toss up, but I think Chavez would edge it down the stretch and take a close UD via a bit more workrate (perhaps force a very late stoppage). Williams is very much a live one here, though and that power will always give him a chance: given the fact he's a mightily acomplished fighter as well.

    Damn close fight; Ike was as strong as any 135lber in history, so it would take a Rosario like performance for JC Superstar to get the job done.

    CHavez WM15 (9-6)

    Where is Manassa? I'd like to hear his take on this one.

    Great fight, I'll post my prediction later after thinking about it more.
