    Mayweather quits on his stool after round 10 as Chavez starts landing multiple right hands.

    So specific, I am guessing you have some kind of inside knowledge.

    Chavez was starting to tail off, and yet despite Mayweather being in the form of his career, he still could not beat the brilliant Mexican.

    Mayweather was at his best at 140. Chavez was at his best at 130 but still a beast at 135.

    Mayweather's defense and movement is too much for Julio. He takes the decision win that Sweet Pea deserved.

    He grew naturally into 140lb fighter. He is not natural at 147 and definetly not at 154. He is at his best at junior-welterweight. His most impressive performance was against Gatti at that weight.

    Chavez was at his beat at 135lbs.


    As for this, i think it's 50/50.
