    He was full blown diva by then. The Taylor fight also ruined Chavez.

    I don't see anyone doing it. Not Chavez at his best.

    Tough to find that guy. Those with the best chance are-

    Pacquiao
    Duran
    Pryor
    Armstrong

    Robinson... in his 42nd pro fight he weighed in at 142 Lbs. At this point he had beat Jimmy Tygh KO8 and KO1, Pete Lello KO4, Sammy Angott W10 x2, Maxie Shapiro KO3, Marty Servo W10 x2, Fritzie Zivic W10, Jake Lamotta W10, and Izzy Jannazzo W10 and KO8 among others. He had one loss, a close decision to Lamotta in their 2nd fight... Robinson was 144 1/2 and Lamotta was 160 1/2.

    I'll send in Diego Corrales. He didn't win them all, but he stopped a lot of them when he did win.

    no one said ike williams so i will, not betting on it tho.

    maybe robinson can't get down and stay 100%, but maybe that's the best answer.

    Chavez topped out at 140. At welterweight, he wasn't anything special at all. Hatton was at his best at 140. He'd make the fight so dirty that Chavez would be complaining from the first round on. Hatton would be the bully in a fight at 140.

    Chavez was really at his best at 135.

    Exactly

    I am one of Randall's biggest fans, but I know he didn't beat prme JC Chavez.

    Brixton is not able to put the big picture in proper context here

    He beat end of the road Kostya. Kostya wouldn't beat prime Chavez, either.

    I followed Chavez's whole career, and wasn't a big fan. But, I respected him and acknowledged he was, in his prime, a great fighter.

    He started to slow down probably around the time of the Camacho fight - 1992.

    I would consider his prime to be around 1984-1993.

    I can't see any of the guys you mentioned stopping him in his prime.

    In his prime, he fought all types, including big punchers.

    Roger Mayweather and Edwin Rosario were very big punchers, and he walked right through them. Laporte also had a huge right hand, and Chavez walked through that. Taylor was no puncher, but he landed a lot but had no effect. Lockridge could hit, as well. JL Ramirez was a straight ahead slugger. Chavez easily handled him.

    In his prime, Chavez showed no "dog"

    I don't think what happed against Randall, in the second fight, or the De La hoya and Tzyu fights, or the Wise (lol, how you could even use that fight as an example with a straight face, is beyond me) fights has any bearing on ****yzing prime Chavez.
