War Barney Ross!! And Hopkins!!

Chavez was more an 80s guy though IMO

Chavez was more an 80s guy though IMO

How so?

[Gatling]

How so?

His best win and reign was in the 80s. Getting diced up by DLH and the fights with Randall, the fight with Taylor....no.

Meh, maybe so, but I still think he done enough in the 90s to beat Lennox Lewis for a spot in my top 3.

Calzaghe should be on the list instead of Hopkins.

Most of Chavez best wins were at 140 in the 90s and his number 1 win was vs Camacho in 1992

I think Rosario was his best win. Was that in the 90s?
