        Duran was the better version of Chavez. Could you ever have imagined Chavez venturing up to middleweight to capture the world title?

              perhaps you should see a couple of his fights...
              He was far superior to Ricardo Mayorga

                Ring mag are full off Idiots

                Chevez went 89 fights unbeaten had a record off 104-5-1
                5 time world champion beat over 11 former world champions
                37title defences (thts also a record)
                Chevez is the greatest body puncher off a time in my mind also

                  SRl would knock out chavez, hagler would, barkly would, hell even pipeno cuevas might, duran is just much better, chavez could never beat leanord or barkley or be beating hagler after 12, he fought a bunch of cab drivers to get that record

                      yea i agree, duran is way better then mayorga everyone agrees on that that guy needs to watch a duran leanord 1 to watch one of the most skillful fights of alltime, to compare him to mayorga is a major insult
