    I liked Jolten Jeff's style and like others here thought he was a very good boxer, but I didn't think he was technically advanced, he couldn't do it all like Gomez, or for a stand up boxer with a good jab he wasn't clever or as sharp as a Buchanan. He had decent power but not anything to hold off Wilfredo with. Gomez around round 9.

    I hate to admit it, but if there was a unification bout. Chandler most likely would have boxed his way to a decision victory over Pintor. In his prime Chandler moved very well & had a good jab.
