Was that fight suppsed to be an epic wipeout? Remember the thread is about matches that were made that were immediately overwhelmingly lopsided by the time the contract was signed. I honestly wasn't following boxing at the time, I was very young, so you may be right. However, I fight it hard to believe that Tyson vs. Spinks or Pac vs. Hatton had people scratching their heads as much as BJ Flores(talented cruiserweight) taking on a mediocre SMW in Mendoza, or Chavez at 49-0 taking on a 1-14 can.
Your right on paper Chavez fighting the dude that was 1-14 has to be the worst,especially considering Chavez was a rabid animal.
good call. Poor kid. Did he retire immediately afterwards? EDIT: I just looked him up. Lost every fight of his career, all but one by KO:blood
