        amazing vid The stoppage was dodgy but chavez was still great and kept fighting till the end but taylor was badly damage if he won he'd most likely have fought more top level guys n the damage would have piled on. Both brillaint exciting fighters

            When I first saw the title I was wondered

            "Is it Taylor vs Chavez?"

            And yep....So sad what happened.

            Though Hyperion, your sig with the Pavlik-Taylor poster is so ****ing cool.

                The saddest thing about it is that one judge had Chavez ahead...

                  I really hate thinking about this, seriously. I don't even like discussing it, but good post nonetheless. It is an important piece of boxing history.
