Floyd Mayweather vs Julio Cesar Chavez

[warp1432]

Rewatch there second fight cause it was just as close borring, more boring then the first but none the less close -the first fight wasn't borring.

Rewatched it. I scored it 118-110, I could see it 117-111 or maybe even 116-112.

117-111 or 118-110 screams domination to me. It wasn't close at all except for some of the middle rounds where Floyd was still landing the better the shots. Doubling the left hook, clean connecting jabs, great right hand lands. Castillo's body punching was over shadowed by Floyd's clean punching. He'd also get his shots off first.

I don't even see that fight close at all to be honest. The first one was, but not the second.

I gave Castillo rounds 4 and 7. I could see giving him 9 and possibly 6 also. No way in hell 12 though. What the hell were Larry and Harold smoking?

I would say PBF takes it. you have to be able to beat floyd to the jab to beat him IMO.

I totally agree with you, i think Mayweather totally out boxed Castillo in the rematch.

Every time Teddy Atlas opens his yap I hear that "STYLES MAKE FIGHTS".
Thats not what I'm getting at.
Frankie Randall. Thats all I got to say about JCC. Once again, JCC is put on a pedestal in which he does not belong.
You can go with the styles make fights **** all day long, and look like you know what your talking about.
But your not fooling me.
And what the **** does Marge have to do with the price of beans in China any how? Are Marge fans STILL mad that their hopes and dreams got squashed by a little known at the time PWill?

Ok then, Trevor Berbick for Ali. Camacho for Ray Leonard. Joey Archer for Robinson. I guess they are all put on pedestals too high eh?

It's called being past your prime.

Yes, and it still called getting your clocked clean. Was there a "past your prime" clause in anyone of those matches?
When Sweet Pea got thrashed by Trinidad, I didn't sit back and say, wow, Sweet Pea is past his prime. He signed his name to fight, and got beat.

Sometimes you got to know when to hang them up. But if you get your ass whooped before then, then it's not the fault of the guy giving the ass whooping.
And yes, I do put Ali, SRL, and SRR on a pedestal. Their bodies of work make them ALL TIME GREATS. But they got beat by the better man on those nights. Not on some "Imagination Land" type of bull****. It happens to the best of boxers.

If Floyd fights an aggressive enough game plan, he'd win every round. Chavez was not on Mayweather's level at any point in his career as a boxer.

[SkillspayBills]

At 140 and 147 Floyd would more than likely beat Chavez. Floyd rarely get's hit Flush and with Chavez's mentality to "take 2 to give one" would turn into "take 2 and land 1/2". He would lose a close decision to MM.

Chavez seemed like he was easy to out box against the elite pure boxers like Taylor and Pea. Taylor would have beaten Chavez if he avoided slugging with him. i see Floyd winning by UD at any weight. bad style match up for Chavez.

You're a Mayweather fan obviously he can't lose a round.

Pretty much sums it for me.
Chavez, when put up against elite fighters, got beat. It's not that hard to reason.
Thats why I pulled for DLH, and was happy as **** when Kostya KO'ed Chavez's ass out.
The Taylor fight was karma. He got a gift wrapped win, then Chavez whining about the Randell fight afterwards....
At 140, Mayweather beats JCC 10 out of 10 times. And it would be fun to watch.
