    More impressive: Pea-Chavez or PBF-Chico?

    Was Mayweather (24-0, 18KO) dismantling Corrales (33-0, 28KO) in 10 rounds more impressive than Whitaker (32-1 ,15KO) near domination of Chavez(87-0,75KO)?

      It was more impressive Mayweather against Corrales, but you have to admit that Chavez was much more better than chico, so I chose Sweet pea against JCC

        I agree, and because the accomplishment meant more, and it was a dominant performance (even if not as dominant as Mayweather's), it's the more impressive feat.

          J C Chavez was a far better fighter than Corrales

              thing about these is that it could go either way, it would depend on what you base it on, if you give light on who's better than you'll pick Pea and JC Superstar but if you go for a MORE dominating performance you'll pick Floyd and Corrales, that fight wasn't competitive Floyd just beat on Corrales which is more impressive than making it to the end of the fight, he beat on him for 10 rounds then TKO'ed him, thats pretty ****ing impressive for Chico to be an undefeated champion, but on the other hand you have Chavez whom was better than Chico LOSING the fight but was gifted with a draw against a better Boxer when in his prime, a Boxer whom really put the 1st loss on Oscar's record and this being when Pea wasn't even at his best, it's a tough call.. if i had to pick I would pick Mayweather-Corrales because this isn't about whom was better fighters it was about which one was a more impressive performance and Floyd just completely, one sidedly beat Corrales and made his corner step in and stop it but I can see how Chavez and Pea would be picked, like I said it depends what you basing it on but TO ME I'm looking at the more impressive fight and as impressive as Chavez-Pea was I think Mayweather-Corrales was more of a one sided display of skills againt will, a Boxer VS a fighter with the Boxer excercizing his Boxing skills to the fullest extent.. 100

                I'd say PBF-Corrales for the simple fact that many people thought Floyd would get KO'd, Corrales had NEVER been down before that fight and floyd knocked him on his ass 5 times, and that Corrales was realtviely high on everybody's P4P list at the time, and even regained P4P status years after that fight.

                  Also, I had Whitaker winning by a round, while Mayweather TKO'd Corrales. That is def. more impressive. Also, JCC had a padded record of nobodies in Mexico. Maybe 10 of his 80 some fights were against non-cab drivers.

                    SEE what I'm saying, he DID have a padded record, he fought his fair share of good opponents but people can see through the numbers that make his record and pinpoint just how many good fighters he's faced, Cotto with a fraction of the overall fights he's just about up there with Chavez in number of good guys he faced, he started from his 10th professional bout fighting good guys like Justin Jukko up to Mosley, Chavez was fighting cans when he was 31-0, don't get me wrong he was an all time great but not enough people realize this.. 100
