Was Julio Cesar Chavez overrated?

Chavez is overrated or underrated...depending on who you ask. Whitaker would have beat Chavez regardless of the time...Pea was just a horrible style matchup for him.
No one will ever again come close to matching his record...the way he hung in against Mel Taylor and managed to get the fortunate victory was insanely courageous on his part. I respect JCC very much.

Why is it everytime someone questions a mexican fighter like Chavez or Barrera, mexican people start going crazy? I was just making a thread because I didn't see Chavez in his prime and all of a sudden its like I spit on the Queen?Last edited by {BrownBomber}; 01-28-2005, 07:25 PM.

Last note, people can call Chavez's unbeaten streak overrated that's fine. But don't call a fighter that stepped into the ring with everybody in his era overrated.
That's seems to be a big problem with fighters these days, I can name a few but this thread will turn into a ***** thread.
