    No, I don't consider them ATG's. However, I wanna thank you for at least trying to defend Chavez's status in the boxing world using his resume, unlike everyone else who says he's great because they've been told so.

          Since your teenage azz has only started watched boxing for this last month.

          You are not allowed to question an ATG status.

          Go watch women’s tennis since you don’t understand the greatness of JCC.

            Since when does Chavez status need to be defended? The guy was a boxing machine.

              Chavez' win over Edwin Rosario in 1987 is regarded as his finest performance. That's a little before my time but that's what I have always heard and read as I learn more about boxing history.

              The Meldrick Taylor fight in 1990 is extremely controversial. You can look up "HBO Legendary Nights, Chavez-Taylor" to get some more insight about that one.

                I don't think he was questioning his status. I think he just wants to learn more about a great fighter and we can't complain and say people "don't know ***** about boxing" if we won't even name a fight or two for new fans to go back and watch.

                      Can someone tell me what his best victories were and why? Does he hold any victories over other ATG's?

                      Using his resume, how would you argue he beats these fighters..

                      Duran
                      Mayweather
                      Mosley
                      How do you see these fights turning out??
