:nonoLike Chavez-Whitaker, this one is going to the cards. At the end of the day, its a matter of opinion and taste!:bbb I refuse to get KO'd!!!!:yep
Thats funny, your probably scared to give a round by round for that one too.... <---All of us laughing at you!!! Now, as I said once, and I will say again... This content is protected
LOL you beat me to it. HEY, notice not one person that thinks Chavez won has dared to post a round by round??? Gee I wonder why!?!?!? :huh <----Me wondering why? :shock: <----Me realizing its because they cant because it will show they are full of ****! :rofl <---Me laughing at them!!!
If I remember correctly the fight was in Europe the reason Sweet pea lost was because he ran too much this style of boxing is no good in Europe.
This term "running" I don't like. And I'm not just talking about Whitaker. Muhammad Ali in his prime was a very fast mover around the ring. He would circle all night long, throw jabs while backing up, and lean back to avoid blows. He would occassionaly stand his ground and throw 3-4-5 punch combinations, but for the most part he was always moving and throwing jabs. He was not interested in taking punches, and coming forward aggressively all night. This surely must be "running" as well?. Its not called "running", its called defensive "BOXING". An art form, which only the sublime skilled prize fighters in the trade can do effectively. If one fighter can't solve the puzzle his opponent has presented him with over the course of a fight, tough luck.
Traditionally European judges favour slick boxing displays. However, this was being fought in Paris, where Ramirez was living and training at the time, and so he was the home town favourite. If you want to dig a little further you could say that Jose Suliaman saw the potential for an all Mexican unification fight between Ramirez and Chavez and made sure the judges favoured the aggressor. I mean, one judge had it 118-113 for Ramirez (Newton Campos). If he wasn't paid off or acting on instruction to make sure Ramirez got the nod, then I'll be damned.
I had Pea winning 10 rounds against Chavez. That fight wasn't even close, no matter what "the Mexican Stevie Wonder" divac would have you believe. I had Pea winning 11 rounds against Ramirez...that said I had the Rivera fight a draw.
Pea clearly won that fight. Only an imbecile could argue otherwise. He landed more and effective shots yes he backtracked but so does Mayweather,RJJ,Ali......and does that stop them from winning through effective and cleaner punches? Hell no. Anyone who thinks Chavez won the fight should submit a round by round and we can break it down and expose them. I doubt anyone would have the guts though....
