    Well all fighters fight cab drivers early in thier careers, Pac is NOT an exception. But JCC fought cab drivers early, middle and late in his career.....LOL!!

      Pacman fought cab drivers early in his career, JCC made a career out of cab drivers!

        Ya, and in order to do that, you had to of been a fight fan back in the 80's to understand who the recognizable fighters were. cause i garentee from that statement you don't know. Considered one of the greatest fighters in history, Chávez won six world titles in three weight divisions: WBC Super Featherweight (1984), WBA Lightweight (1987), WBC Lightweight (1988), WBC Super Lightweight (1989), IBF Light Welterweight (1990), and WBC Super Lightweight (1994). Chávez also went undefeated for 93 bouts before his first retirement with a record of 104-5-2 (80 knockouts). World champions whom Chávez defeated include Jose Luis Ramírez, Rafael Limon, Rocky Lockridge, Meldrick Taylor, Roger Mayweather, Lonnie Smith, Sammy Fuentes, Héctor "Macho" Camacho, Juan Laporte, Edwin Rosario, Greg Haugen, Tony López, Giovanni Parisi, Joey Gamache, and Frankie Randall, who had taken the WBC light welterweight belt from Chávez just four months earlier. He lost to only two champions: Oscar De La Hoya and Kostya Tszyu. He was held to a draw by two others: Pernell Whitaker and Miguel Angel Gonzalez.

        In 2002, Ring Magazine ranked Chavez as the 18th greatest fighter of the last 80 years. He was also ranked #50 on Ring Magazine's list of 100 greatest punchers of all time.

        Now in time pac-man can get close to that, but acheive what jcc superstar did, not on your life buddy.

          and those cab drivers you refer to were part of his training, he did'nt want to wait around for top fighters to train so he kept fighting, sometimes up to 6 fights a month just to stay active. if you've ever seen him train, as have i, you would know he does sparring for hours and hours.

            Chavez fought taxi cabs in his heyday and everytime he steps up the competition he gets beat.

            Chavez was just a smart brawler.

            Pacquiao has fought legends and has beaten them.

            And let's add that Pacquiao came from a weight class which was fly...

            When was the last time a Fly KO'd 135 guys.

            Cant seem to remember.

              Exactly.

              And even then early on Pac fought top guys and champs.

              He didnt became a fly champ early on for nothing.

              Chavez resume is at best dubious.

                  why don't you mention he got knocked the **** out by nobodies and had a hometown ref save his life against Hussain.

                  What other top fighter has been knocked down into the twilight zone by a ****en JAB?
