Barrera Vs Chavez is signed, no Barros fight!

[Caca]

Chavez is relentless and on top of his game right now. If Barrera does not come with his "A" game I could see him losing this fight. I wouldn't be surprised. Chavez is bigger, stronger and brings a lot of pressure. I see Barrera becoming frustrated and reverting to his usual dirty tactics when he starts to feel at a disadvantage. Remember Pacquiao.

[Bozo_no no]

Chavez didnt land and his corner called the fight OFF because their fighter didnt want to be embarassed any more on TV.

He landed almost exactly the same number of shots as did Floyd.

And the fight was stopped because of the damage Mayweather's more accurate punches had done to Chavez, not because they were embarassed. That's silly.

But again, to say it was a blow out and not competitve is outright wrong.

[Dirt E Gomez]

Thats why Corrales', Chavez and Gatti's corner gave up and threw in the towel.

Hah, I'd say the towel was thrown for Gatti and Corrales because they were getting murdered viciously and didn't want to see them to get even further ****ed up.

[Easy-E]

Prolly through 2 1/2 times as many punches too.

true, but the fight was still a competitive one, but it didnt show it in the end result, like the white sox series or floyds augustus fight
floyd was winning clearly on the cards, but floyd himself called it the toughest fight of his career. it was a very competitive fight, but the cards didnt show it
i know what your trying to say though

Floyd is untouchable. He beats everyone up to 154. And Chavez handles Barrera, no 4th title in a 4th weight class for the Baby Faced Assassin

Exactly. Boxrec jumps on every rumor and word on the street. There was an article on ringtalk that even some of the fighters' records in boxrec were not accurate.
