    And now that I think about it, Chavez has a better chin P4P, but I'm not sure Chavez would ever have withstood that bomb Iran Barkley laid on Duran. I'm still not quite sure how Duran managed it.

    I think Chavez vs Pipino Cuevas is a better match-up, and a good microcosm for how this fight would go. Sure, Chavez boxes way better than Pipino but I believe Cuevas had the better punch. Would be a tough fight.

    Well then do an English degree! That was terrible wording, and it cannot hide the fact that Chavez peaked at 130/135 and Duran peaked at 135/147....

    Duran is bigger than Chavez he left 135lbs and went to 160lbs fighting big guys like Hagler,More,Barkley. Chavez best weight was 130-135 lbs
    Duran was an animal he will eat anybody under 140 I always remember Marvin Hagler describing Duran's eye like two black charcoals this guy fought like a possed man I strongly recomends to watch him vs Ken Buchanan at 135 lbs.
