Julio Cesar Chavez, Roberto Duran & Hector Camacho...Who's the Better Fighter/Resume?

This was very difficult? really? No wonder you got most of it wrong then

 

Duran
JCC
















Camacho.

 

Was it really that hard?

 

Duran by far.

 

by far...:huh

 

out of the three, roberto duran is the most accomplished and better. however, i think julio cesar chavez comes in a close second followed by hector camacho who is also a sure-fire hall of famer.

 

How dare we indeed!!!!!

 

Agreed

 

Duran, Chavez and then Camacho. Camcho was a very good fighter and HOF but not an ATG like Chavez and Duran. I put Duran above Chavez because of his Middleweight Championship and his W over Leonard. Duran putting down Iran was cold blooded

 

With Chavez basically he did not fight the big names because he was not a star. Early on in his career he fought on his older brothers under cards, he was not thought of as a fighter destined for greatness. Moreover, the politics of the sport (in Mexico) hurt him, he could not get a fight with a contender. Finally after about 30 fights he got his shot against the highly touted Mario "Azabache" Martinez. It was expected that Chavez would lose the fight. However, Chavez gave Martinez the beating of a lifetime. It was the first time Martinez had been knocked out ever.

Chavez in his career fought more than 14 champions and other quality fighters.

Chavez would have beaten Duran below 140. However above 140 Duran would have beaten Chavez.

Camacho was a very good boxer but not on the level of either Chavez and Duran.

 

Christ, Bramble is nuttier than a fruit cake........ By 1989 Ol' Bramble was a faded fighter going nowhere fast...... He finished up like an ugly ***** with 1,000,000 miles on his motor........... After his loss to Rosario in '86, Bramble was nothing more than a hanger-on........ Bramble is lucky he never fought Chavez in 1989 at 140 pounds...........

1. Duran
2. Chavez
3. Camacho

Note:

Camacho had the skills and savy to beat Chavez in 1992, but not at 140 DRAINED pounds....... At 147 or even up high as 150, I think Camacho would've had much more to offer in 1992 instead of that limp dick performance he gave.... As for Chavez, his best weight was 140....... Chavez never had much luck above 140.......... 130 to 140 was Chavez' best range........

You know nothing about Chavez. Go to boxrec and educate yourself, the man was fighting seriously tough guys within his first 25 fights, and his record of stay-busy fights against tomato cans compares well with Duran's record of doing the same thing. In fact, JCC probably doesn't have as many of those fights as Duran does and CERTAINLY not as late into his career.

Second, for mrbill: Camacho got thoroughly destoyed against JCC. He wasn't, never had been and never could be considered a fighter on the same level as JCC. It was a mismatch. You need to watch that fight.

imho JCC beats Duran below 140, I don't think anyone can go to toe to toe with that version of JCC and survive, but it's a great enough fight that it's not ludicrous to choose Duran. If you think Camacho could hang with either one of them at any weight, at any time, you deserve the laughter that's going to be directed at you.

 

Name them?
