            You kind of breezed through this as if it wasn't chavez best win over an undefeated prime Hall of Famer. Not to mention to most its the signature fight of the Mexico vs Puerto Rico rivalry

              personally, I believe that Rosario is Chavez's best win.

              either way, I wasnt planning on spending a huge amount of time per win. Its a whole career overview, and most people already know about his biggest wins.

              My main thing was to highlight some of his more underrated, but still meaningful, wins.

                I'd agree on Rosario though a hell of a case can also be made for Taylor. Controversy or no, that fight more than any other is where he goes from star to legend. Camacho had already well settled into mediocrity by then and was undefeated by way of failed Haugen pot test. His "0" was the butt of jokes leading up to the fight.

                And nice work.
