ricky hatton vs julio cesar chavez @ 140?

[EliteSoldier]

I think he was talking about the original JCC, which is even more of a joke. JCC was an animal at 140. Hatton wouldn't stand a chance. That is like saying Jermain Taylor vs. Marvin Hagler would be a close, good fight.

You have a biased opinion because I bet you will pick floyd to beat Chavez at 140. Tell me I'm wrong, you won't tell me I'm wrong

this is pure ignorance...95% of you guys who post on this message board are idiots! 95%..everytime you take an older guy vs a guy on the scene now you all ALWAYS say the older guy wins with all these ignorant foolish comments like "the fight dosent go 5 rounds" KO IN 4...chavez was not that good, he was an inside fighter with a solid chin and no power..if you give hatton a chance vs cotto (a guy with similar style but much stronger and more power) then not giving him a change vs the overrated chavez is absurd



anybody who's been apart of this forum for a while should know by now that i know my stuff

i agree with that

Chavez had no power huh? IT seems like you havent watched most of his fights. If you knew a lil about boxing you would understand how
jcc power worked. IT ws like Tysons power it was the kind of power that hurts you every shot. Slowly breaks you down> he would see anyone hurt qnd he would finish them>

are u seriously comparing chavez's power to mike tysons????????

[Grappler_Baki60]

this would be an awesome fight at 140, i give the edge to hatton because of speed

WTF! u did not just put ricky in JCC's level JCC would ***in destroy Hatton with body shots. Hatton would not be coming foward. JCC K.Os him 7 rounds

based on a few years of predictions and analysts, im at the top of the food chain on this forum..chavez isnt 10 times better then anybody, any boxer on his feet could beat chavez's "take 4 punches to land 1" style

Some people think that is descriptive of Hatton as well.

OK, first off the nly food chain you are on top of is the one at Burger King.
Second, I know you are just trying to get a rise out of people but IF you are serious, you ahve lost what little credibility you thought you had by saying Chavez was nothing special.

Chavez did fight alot of guys that weren't big names but that's only because Chavez always had a philosophy of staying active, something alot of fighters in todays game should learn from. Chavez also fought everyone that was anyone in his weight class. He never ducked anyone and fought the best that was out there for him.

Chavez greatest atribute was his accuracy IMO. He had a granit chin, yes. He had very good power, not great, I'll give you that. And of course he had the heart of a true warrior but his greatest atribute was how he never wasted punches. The one thing I have tried to learn from watching Chavez in the ring was to keep my eyes up while inclose to an opponent, especially if I have him on the ropes. It's easier said than done because your instinct is to keep your head down, trying to avoid getting hit. Watch Chavez and see how he just picks fighters apart, especially in close. He was a master technician and shouldn't be disscredited because he fought often, because he also fought the best.

THIS IS WHAT I THINK

JCC would destroy Hatton.

Good call. I learned this really ****ing crazy thing about boxing though that you might not know yet. Someone told me that styles make fights. Floyd Mayweather seems to fight like Pernell Whitaker more than Hatton. That's just my (obviously biased) opinion.
