Would anyone like to reconsider Chavez/Mayweather now?

    Now that PBF has shown his heart, has anyone changed their minds as to who would win out of him and Chavez. I always thought he would be chavez, but I might even go so far as to say he could beat Pryor, too. What do you think?

    He would school Chavez much like Whitaker did....tho not as lopsided (still cant fathom how anyone would call that a draw).

    I've always said PBF would give Chavez fits and win by UD. Tonight's performance didn't change anything for me.

    Chavez was just better than Hatton is just about every category other than will to win.

    He had better defense, he had better punch placement, he had better punch selection, he had a better chin and the list goes on and on.

    Chavez beats Mayweather in a close fight imo, and tonight's fight did nothing to make me think otherwise.

    Im not so quick to say he would beat Chavez. Chavez had a brutal, sustained body attack. I still think Chavez wins a decision.

    Spot on. He didn't just charge in like Hatton but instead picked his spots and made calculated moves.
