Greatest Mexican fighter of all time

The only guy who outboxed him in his prime was Taylor, and even he did more trading at close quarters than most guys who "outbox" guys. Whitaker outboxed Chavez when both guys were 2 divisions or so above their best weight....who didn't Whitaker outbox?

The guys who gave Chavez the most trouble were the ones who stood their ground and traded with controlled aggression. Taylor did it for most of their fight, Randall did it, even Whitaker outmuscled Chavez and backed him up at times.

The guys who tried to outbox Chavez and use the ring and movement, Chavez cut off the ring and punished.

I think someone need a combantion of both to win him.

and that is how Sanchez is going to win Chavez if they ever fought

People can call Chavez' record padded and whatnot, but it's pretty much a fact that nobody will approach that kind of record ever again. I refuse to acknowledge any kind of victory over Meldrick Taylor, but Chavez beat the likes of:

Mario Martinez, Ruben Castillo, Roger Mayweather, Rocky Lockridge, Juan LaPorte, Jose Luis Ramirez, Edwin Rosario, Greg Haugen, Hector Camacho, Tony Lopez, etc...

Chavez was a beast.
