    what about randall 2 any thoughts on that, it looked a gift to me, i just think that randall had his number at that time
    Yes thank you, I just forgot about the Randall fight. That was another gift. Randall was not a big name, so I forgot it.

            mf you must be really ****ing ****** to think floyd won the first fight.and your calling me a homer? what fight were you watching? so many people I know have watched that fight and say no way floyd won and that includes my black and white friends.

              He was past his prime yes but not washed up, anyways chavez would of beat him prime for prime, he's a better fighter, and the irony in his nickname too always cracks me up

                  Chavez was unquestionably great. He was amongst the best lb4lbers ( at, or near, the top for quite a few) for a decade straight.
                  He was the best fighter in each of the weight clases he won titles in....

                  He fought a steady stream of excellent fighters, & looked like the ultimate fighting machine in many.
                  His fight with Taylor has been used by his detractors against him....when it shouldn't be. He & Taylor were the two best in the world when they fought, & gave us as great a fght as there has ever been, with or without the controversy.
                  He truly lost to Whiatker, but considering Pea is considered the slickest boxer, next to Willie Pep, in boxing history....where's the shame in that ?

                  He wore down after so many fights, many tough ones....& he kinda dogged it at times.
                  But, he was awesome in his prime....& he was awesome for a very long time.

                  If a fighter came along now....with his activity, his variety of punches, his chin, his body attack, & his skill/smarts....we'd all love him. Rightfully so.

                    You've been owned you fat little ****. You just proved to the world that you're the biggest homer on this planet. Your a blind ****. Yes you also think that Chavez never got a gift decision, we just found 4 fight for Chavez. Nothing pisses me off, more then a homer. No one beats you. You are #1 in my book.
