Julio Cesar Chavez vs Juan Manuel Marquez, Erik Morales & Marco Antonio Barrera at 130 & 135

Marquez would give Chavez all he could handle at Super Featherweight, it's not like Chavez was unbeatable at Super Featherweight struggling against Laporte, Lockridge, in close fights. And Marquez thrives against come forward fighters, if Marquez can deal with the dynamic fast punching machine like Pacquiao, then I think he would match up well with Chavez.

Overall I see Morales, Marquez, running him very close and may of even pick up a surprise win. For some reason I see Barrera doing the worst out of the 3 don't ask me why.

 

There was nothing close about Chavez-Lockridge, Chavez won that 8-4 at worst.

 

I remember it being very competitive whilst Chavez did clearly win by a few rounds.

My point is Morales, Barrera, Marquez, are ATGs and Chavez wasn't unbeatable at Super Featherweight. If your disregarding Lockridge as a close fight, then the Laporte one certainly was close and Chavez was pushed hard in that fight.

I think assuming Chavez goes 3-0 against 3 ATG's, who are probably better than anyone Chavez beat is a little optimistic.

Overall I think Chavez could beat all 3, but I think a few people in this thread are slightly under selling the other 3 fighters.

 

....and Eric Morales gave Manny a good hiding in their first fight. He'd be a very live underdog against JCC.

 

Agreed as i said before did Chavez ever beat anyone as good as Morales, Barrera, Marquez ? I think people assuming he goes 3-0 against 3 ATG's, when Chavez never beat anyone as good as either of them is a bit optimistic.

Whilst Chavez would have a good chance of beating all 3, I would say the likelihood of him having clean sweep against all 3 is a bit unrealistic to me.
