    Chavez is slow and he starts slow. He traditionally gave away the first 2 to 3 rounds.
    That's not enough to say he would lose

    Did a pretty good job tracking down fighters in the late rounds

        Tank would lose, the only effective weapon against floyd were right hand shots

        zab had some success early with his big left, but it was his right that caught floyd off-guard and caused a uncounted knockdown ironically

        delahoyas left jab at times was effective, but left hands in general dont really bother floyd, and tanks biggest weapon is his left.

          Have you ever seen Floyd fade late in a fight before?

            Chavez has late round kos

            I don't see the point.

            Chavez is an all time great fighter. So is Mayweather. Chavez beating him just based on his track record is not a far flung analogy

                Fighters without a size advantage who could beat Floyd:

                Henry Armstrong

                Duran

                Pernell Whitaker

                  He is an all time great no question but style wise I just don’t see it. Floyd has length and speed to his advantage. I just don’t see it but you’re right Chavez stopping Floyd late wouldn’t be impossible. But myself personally I think Floyd is too smart for that.

However I don’t think Oscar has the arsenal to beat Floyd. He’s primarily a one handed fighter and Floyd would be able to avoid that left.
                      If you mean De La Hoya, I thought he faired well despite being at the end of his career. This version of Oscar tended to get winded in the middle rounds, lacked the defensive reflexes and punching power that he had at 140-147.
