Originally posted by BROWN BOMBERWhy is this thread about that fight, I thought they asked if you think he was over rated. Im wondering if people would of liked him more if he had a big mouth like ALI. If you want to compare Chavez and PeaPea, Pea didnt do half of what Chavez did in his career and he is ranked higher in the all time greats. Maybe Pea's ability to speak english helps him???Besides him having a thicker skull and taking a punch he had very under rated defense.
It's perfectly legitimate to bring up a fighters opponent(s) if your discussing a thread as to whether or not he's overrated!! How else are you supposed to guage whether or not a person is overrated?

Originally posted by BROWN BOMBEROk then talk about the many more victories he had.That more than over shadows any bad decision by the judges.
I agree dude I think Chavez is a LEGEND!! There are too many victories that he has to even talk about!! The guys is one of the greatest Ive ever seen.. I just think that he would never beat Sweet Pea, and I thought he deserved to lose that fight to Taylor!! I just hate to see people get robbed especially when they fight masterfully!!

Bomber, it's understandable that you may like the fearless, always go to war and go forward style that Chavez used...but to discredit Whitaker by saying that the greatest defensive fighter to ever do it (IMO since I've never seen footage of Pep) was a running ***** is a disgrace. Whitaker didn't only make Chavez look ordinary in their fight, but he put on a clinic of dodging Chavez left hands and slipping his jabs and crosses. All of those landed punches must not have meant anything either...
Whitaker was just REALLY really bad stylistically for Chavez. He was way too good defensively and he was way to intelligent/quick to let Chavez get to him. He would have outboxed Chavez at any weight.
