    Agreed and not only that oscars aggression could have played right into floyd's hands.

    And he postponed the marquez fite because of a broken rin different injury.

    At 140 Oscar beats Floyd with his superior shotgun like jab, followed by a lefthook that will leave floyd dancing better than Mosley did in rd 2.

    Chavez above his natural weight class???? He fought DLH at 140, the same weight he beat TAYLOR, CAMACHO, HAUGEN, and fought WHITAKER AT at and had been at that weight since 1989 which proves you know NOTHING about boxing. Prime Castillo was still Chavez sparring partner at the time. And Marquez had and still never been stopped. Castillo was STOPPED IN HIS PRIME.

    No, just no. Don't boxrec Chavez, watch him to learn he was a better lightweight fighter, the footage will prove it. If someone was to boxrec Chavez, then it would be entirely understandable for someone to rate him as a better light-welterweight fighter.

    Just as I said which proves you know nothing about boxing.
    Chavez was fighting at 140 in the 80s. He beat most of the great opponents there. He wasn't above his natural weight

    He might have looked better at lightweight, but he wasn't fighting the likes of Taylor, Camacho, or Haugen at lightweight neither. He wasn't above his natural weight at 140.

    He's not gonna land that left hook he's one handed, PBF would take it away just like he took Oscar's jab away and his left hook in their fight at 154.:deal Also betting on a fighter with the best defense of this era to lose by KO is dumb Oscar isn't going to KO PBF and he's not going to outbox him either. So how in the hell does he win?

    The best win on his roster and his best performance came at LW, against the monstrously hard hitting Rosario, where he put on an offensive and defensive showcase. He never looked that good (unless his massacre of the overmatched Terrence Ali at 140) above or below 135. While Camacho, Taylor and Haugen are all fancy names, Camacho's best days where far behind him and he had morphed into a relatively ineffective fighter compared to hos earlier days, Taylor for the most part look Chavez's equal when he clearly wasn't and Haugen just...wasn't on the same level.

    Chavez maybe one of the best 140 and 130 boxers to lace them up, but he wasn't as good there as he was at 135.

    The same way he beat Whitaker (I know whitaker and Floyd have completely different styles) but Oscar would just push Floyd back and pressure him, keeping him on defense like he kept pea.

    P
    Oscar throws the Jab Floyd cracks him with a pull counter laughs at him and tells him shoot it again so he can counter it like his boy Mosley. Then Oscar throws the left hook floods rolls it and cracks him in the face with a right cross. Oscar gets on his bike like he did tito

    JCC was past his best when he fought Oscar he had been in tons of wars. So tell that **** to somebody that doesn't know any better.
    And Holmes was Ali's sparring partner. Mosley was Oscar's sparring partner for PBF? So what the **** does that prove? Because you're a sparring partner that means you can't be great?:patsch

    He went on to beat Pernell with his right hand at 147. The one handed thing is a complete myth, it might not have been as grossly over-powered as his left but its operational use in his offense can't be over-looked. He proved he could win fights with it and did so against a man who should have won fighter of the decade (in my opinion) and was to 3 pound for pound at the time. He won that fight under his 140 coach Rivero.
