His slugger style will be more effective vs Bigger fighters, than versus smaller ones, he's always the one with the most reach in his fights and fighting on the inside that's always one handicap for him.
And he comes to the ring at 185lbs, that's pretty big for a SMW, if he can keep the fight on the inside vs the Bigger fighters, always staying on their face, he has a chance vs all of them, he can beat them outworking them and don't let them fight on the outside, after all he has more mobility than an Abraham and not waits for just one punch like Arthur.
All of his career he has been fighting in the wrong style, been always the fighter with the more reach and height, but with fighters of the same build, his slugger style will hit home
He will also be much stronger, and focused on his gameplan than on doing weight and struggling for the last pound
Librado Andrade is a good comparision, but Andrade is slower, and has no defense at all and his technical boxing skills are worse than Margarito, he's also 6'2 to the 6'1 of Chavez, and has a 5 inch advantage over Chavez even tough Chavez comes heavier on fight night than Andrade,
Chavez with the lesser reach will be much better on the inside than Andrade (I know Andrade has the better punching power, but we are talking about outworking them, just like LaMotta)
