I know that Chavez is from Mexico, actually I´m from the same hometown, thanks anyway @bmillerdrums, I was asking why they said the fight between America´s Taylor and Mexico´s Chavez they should said fight between United State´s Taylor and Mexico´s Chavez so both of them are americans.
@bmillerdrums Adriano Arreola, fought at the Olympic Auditorium in downtown L.A. in September of 1983, a year before he fought for his first title at the same venue. The fight was taped but not televised. If anybody has that fight in their archives, it's a definite hard to find gem and probably a collectors item.
There is no doubt that Meldrick Taylor was a great crafty speedy boxer,but what happens in boxing when a fighter like that meets a hard-hitting non-stop pressure fighter with a GREAT chin,well...this happens.Julio Cesar Chavez was no joke either,I think the early body attack killed Meldrick Taylor,then Chavez let the head fall in the later rounds.Attack the body,the head will fall on its own.THIS IS WHY I LUV BOXING
even though this win was controversial and melodic might have actually won, he was incurably beat up like no joke, he peed pure blood and had brain damage for the rest of his life, look it up
This is easily the most chilling depiction of what the greatness of boxing is. A true war of attrition.. History will tell where this bout ranks all time, but I have always put it in the top 5 having watched it live on PPV. To hear the anaylists speak if it with a fear in their voice should tell viewers the severity of what took place in the ring that night.
@Jovanniboxer Fuck yeah. I know there is some footage leading up to this fight bc it was a huge fight at the time and there was alot of anticipation leading up to it bc people were thinking Chavez might lose finally. Hbo did some pre fight stuff and im sure there is something like a 24/7 out there it would be dope if someone found it and posted it. I always look for more material on this fight
@ztme07 You could say that if he wouldn't have fought the top opposition; but he did; I hear "Chavez wasn't that great" from people all the time. But, nobody can tell me who they wold have wanted to see Chavez in the ring with, to prove himself, think of this fight (Taylor vs. Chavez) like Pac. Vs. Maywather, winner is the P4P, Chavez won...
@ztme07 not overrated at all man, its just the fact that he's the greatest mexican fighter of all time, and therefore is legendary in mexico. What do you think he's overrated?...., chavez is worldwide regarded for being one of the best fighters of all time. Chavez is a living legend..., shit, the guy was 89-0 when he lost his first fight.
@ztme07 Chavez record speaks for itself he defeated mildrick taylor two times and by 2 knockout both time! he was the best p4p fighter in those times keep hating! his a legend!
What helped Chavez throughout his career is that he had a strong chin! Even De La Hoya said that when we hit Chavez in the chin it felt like hitting a brick wall! There will never be another Chavez
@jonnyhuddersfield It was a great fight but I think the right guy won there. Taylor used the ropes to get up and held on to the ropes to stay up during the entire countdown.
Greatest Gin & Poker player ever, Stu Ungar, was in the front row for that fight with 100k riding on the fight going the distance. Don King's boy, ref Richard Steele, stopped it with 2 seconds left in the last round to save Don's fighter. Ungar sat there until everyone left and janitors were cleaning up. "Bad Beat" as Stu would say.
Chavez with out a doubt was the best lightweight in boxing during the years were boxing was a sport now boxing is a joke not real talented fighters who really want to box and be champions. Now boxing isn't a sport anymore is a business to bring really crappy boxers around the world but who said this sport would remain the same after all this years? Everything changes sometimes for the good or for the bad but business wont ever die. Chavez won the fight as clear as the water! One of the best JCC!
Mayweather nor Pacquiao wouldn't have survived against guys like Chavez, Taylor, Norris, etc., when boxing was a sport and not a business as it is today. Boxing is dead, but a great business. Right Mr Bob Arum?!
@justentime77 yeah & count all the lowblows whitaker gave chavez.6th round alone whitaker landed 8 vicious lowblows & if it were a foreign fighter landing that many lowblows wouldve been disqualified.& take note that chavez was already going down hill by not training properly,became a womanizer,drunk.and to boot chavez moved up in weight to fight whitaker.and its funny how in this vid they mention taylor lost his prime in 1 war wit chavez & chavez was in dozens of wars and was not his prime self
@LaNdShArKiN Nice try pal! Chavez was rated number one pound for pound fighter in the world when he fought Whitaker and was well in his prime. Came up in weight? They were both Lightweights. "Womanizer and Drunk? You're obviously confusing Chavez with Duran who used that excuse EVERY TIME he'd lose a fight! Epic fail.
@justentime77 WTF,chavez came as blown up at 142 vs whitaker at 145.if it were evenly matched at chavezs best weight 135 chavez wouldve whooped that ass.& do you really believe chavez was the same fighter he was before dozens of wars?if whitaker took as much punishment chavez did in over dozens of wars do you think whitaker would be the same fighter?they say so in this vid that a fighter is never the same after a war like that.& chavez had many wars.u think it was evenly matched?makes me laugh
@justentime77 and what u have to say about the lowblows whitaker landed on chavez?and dont give me no bullshit cuz if it were chavez landing those lowbows against an american in america it wouldve been an automatic disqualification
@pkbosslac yeah but in the wrong way aha, he should of went down for beatin this peasant up, but guess what? shit happens, still feel bad for him though
this is about one fight..... this is not defining a weight class... if you cannot appreciate that display as a boxing FAN then u dont understand the sport or the history behind it....
Chavez was a better technical fighter? I don't think Duran won all those titles above lightweight by brawling He wasn't powerful when he moved up in weight. Duran used his technical ability to win those later fights so I don't think Chavez is better defensively
Duran was a great brawler Chavez was a doctor he would disect you .Would use all 12 rounds to very paciently destroy you both were great but Chavez was better all around.just expressing my opinion.
Duran is a Legend no doubt but he NEVER achieved HALF the accomplishments that Julio Cesar Chavez did his record speaks for himself don't kid yourself.
@Cudder89 Roberto gets mad respect for fighting guys like Leonard, Hagler and Hearns. Chavez fought the best of his time too, and had a lot more fights than Duran. Chavez was a better fighter, at least technically as well. A lot people still see Duran's era as a harder time to compete in boxing. I can see why some people say he is the best latin fighter of all time, but to me if they met in their primes Duran's granite chin and big punches would be his only chance against the skill of Chavez.
@esepitbull come on thats a fuckin joke, Duran is the greatest Lightweight EVER, no way JCC "destroys" him, please educate yourself in this subject and then debate, no knowledgeable Boxing fan would ever something like the bullshit you posted, much respect to both Chavez and Duran, learn more about them.
@traedify its not about color its about knowing boxing, im Mexican and i think right now Mayweather is the best(over pacquiao) u can hate but u can't deny great boxing skills.
@vergitacha I also think the box has no color..but it takes balls to get in the ring..Pacquiao does not use steroids has never failed the test ..maybe he uses some substance from the Philippines..we all know mayweather is injected substances in his arms why not inject his body up the ass and gives us the fight we want
@traedify meldrick was a true soldier too though. man that was crazy his body was tore up after the fight and chavez looked like nothing. man!!! what a classic fight.
every body who is compared against a tiny island as PR ,like someone said , its ok to be compared with the most talented country by square foot in the world , if we were the sized to say someone mexico , we will owed the world lol...W
an ARM puncher vs an heavy body puncher slow vs fast butt one punch count for tree how dear they compere 23 fight fighter to a 66 and 0 world class fighter only because he was in the Olympics the real ting was they can not give a MEXICAN fighter credit butt he that fighter on the suv he and only him rubbed it all in the US face. jaguar my ass pendejos !!!
NOW A UNDERSTAND , i was a kid when this fight happen , but i remember everyone seeing it and when the ref. stop the fight everyone here in PR was pissed the fucked out of them self , they stared a brawl with the chavez fans and know i understand why and is that richard had tieds with don ...W
@wiporaphell Today Mexico has 14 world champs, how many Puerto Rico? 1, Cotto. The truth is that Mexicans have always been better than Ricans, and this is an Italian talking
@sly717 how big is mex ,you should be ashamed that compared PR aganist mex. and we got 3 champs right now ,but we are part of ee.uu , want to compared now??? jajajaja ,we are the most talented place on earth by square foot ...W
@wiporaphell whoa whoa calm down first of all Im not even Mexican im Italian (from the old country not like those morons from Jersey shore) and im just saying the truth, Mexicans have always been better fighters than Ricans, that is a fact
thats what im trying to tell these bandwagon ass pacroids, after somebody gets beat for the first time and endured lots wars and punishment they are never the same physically,mentally or spiritually,(hatton,cotto,morales,barrera etc.......) pacquiao is a really good boxer dont get me wrong hes got mad heart but yall people make pacman look like he's a GOD or something,when he fights floyd mayweather "the coward" as you people call him the whole world will see how he gets exposed.
Julio Cesar Chavez =24 at ESPNs 50 greatest, 18 at Rings 80 greatest, Hall of famer, 37 world title fights (Ali had 26), lost 6 out of 115, "The greatest lightweight ever, til this day theres never been anyone so great, such a folk hero" George Foreman "Skill wise one of the greatest you will ever see" Roy jones Jr (vid "los grandes opinan de Julio Cesar Chavez") boxing legends, boxing experts and the hall of fame consider Chavez as one of the greatest, WTF listen to you hater bitches?
@diablocoolo angelo dundee and muhammad ali said that chavez was the toughest fighter ever! tougher then marciano, frazier, and lamotta!! chavez was a tough dude with boxing skills! his boxing skills were very underrated! chavez was known for his granite chin and hard body attack!! but people never saw his defense! chavez had a pretty good defense! he had subtle defense but it was there!!
@diablocoolo I'd place Duran and Pep ahead of Chavez just off the top of my head. I mean did Duran ever lose at lightweight? On the other hand Pep is simply pep. Homicide Henry Armstrong was better than Chavez too but it's a very small list until you get to Chavez.
@fernan2901 you and chiliful1974 should try to put on a pair of gloves, do some sparring and shut the fuck up, at least Im a fighter (amateur 8-1-2 in four round fights) and I know about boxing, you couple of Chavez hater rican fags I would put both of you inside a ring n give u a beat, "Chavez this, Chavez that" big mouth fuckin bitches
@diablocoolo Why don't you stop sucking his cock and listen to yourself. He had no boxing ability, he was a face first brawler who took 3 to hit 1 and at 30 yrs old he was done!! Now he's a drug addicted fool who has his son ruin his already messed up name. A QUITTER in his last 5 fights who when was loosing hit low, elbowed and fought dirty. A padded record vs opponents with 8-10 fights when he had 90 and whatever the media says you believe? Please, he emptied the taco stands in Mexico..
@chifuli1974 And I was a All Army boxer with 57 amateur fights, and would beat the shit out of you anytime, but I bet you're fighting at 112-135 while I'm a 6'man at 175 pds. So, shut the hell up!!
@pkbosslac FUCK YOU VERY MUCH, I've done my research at boxrec and what you seeis Chavez beating burrito stand guys tp padd his record, getting gifts left and right and quitting in his biggest fights. You are a fuking fagot, you're the one on Chavez's dick sucking and sucking. That motherfucker ain't shit and his son ain't shit neither. Go fuck yourself, peace...
@pkbosslac Never answered the question, who did Chavez beat who was considered a great fighter in his prime other than this gift? Get Chavez's cock out of your mouth and go to boxrec.com and check where Chavez stands as a all time p4p fighter. He's like 43 and under Oscar de la Hoya. He was a all time great quitter, not fighter...
@diablocoolo Rosario, Mayweather are NOT Hall of Famers, they were average at best, LaPorte was ROBBED and Chavez was BOOOOED when the decision was in his favor and he's no Hall of Famer neither. Camacho was his only legit win and it was after Camacho was doing drugs and at 140. Camacho was at his prime at 130-135 and after the Rosario left hook in the 5th round he was never the same fighter. Taylor and Camacho are his only wins that are worth mentioning and Taylor was robbed by Steele. ASSHOLE
@chifuli1974 stupid hater ho, u make no sense at all, Laportes face was a mess in the end of the fight, u have to take away the belt from the champ, u have to beat the champ, not fight a close fight and finish like if a car rolled over your face, Edwin Rosario IS A HALL OF FAMER u fuckin stupid bitch! Mayweather was 2 time world champ and Camacho was ranked as 2nd when they fought, WTF is your problem? whats with da hate? maybe your mom sucked on JCs dick when he went to puelto lico n ur angry
@diablocoolo Quit sucking on that QUITTERS dick!! He beat only brawlers, when he faced fast boxers who moved he was as stupid as he looked. Whitaker made im look silly for 12 rds, so did Randall, Oscar whupped his ass twice and made him QUIT in the corner like a little bitch.Kostya Tszyu made him QUIT on his fuking knees. Some fuking warrior he was! Then he embarrased himself after that over and over again and now he's a drug adicted fagg who is trying to get his chump son to live of his name...
@chifuli1974 no point talking to a hater chim like yourself, angry because he owned the ass of every fuckin rican he faced? angry? of course, you hate him? of course, so what does that make you? a hater!
@diablocoolo Bye Bye Chavez queer, you know, I don't think he was overrated cause he beat PR fighters. Sal Sanchez beat Gomez and I think he's the best pure boxer Mexico has seen, but Chavez beat a bunch of nobodies and even after big fights he fought chumps to pad his record. Look it up yourself, don't take my word for it. He never foguth a pure boxer until Taylor, got his ass whupped and Steele saved his record. Then Randall and Pea embarrass him, when the going got tough he quit or got dirty
@chifuli1974 LMAO he KOED Taylor and sent him to the hospital for weeks, while Chavez was out partying and celebrating his victory that night in Vegas. How did he get whooped? Oh yea he KOED Taylor again in a rematch. Whittaker was never able to beat Chavez and Randall was only able to beat Chavez in a split decision when he was well past his prime. GTFO.
@pkbosslac You fuking morons go by what the press say, never do your own thinking. Chavez NEVER won a mega fight. There was always some bullshit gift. You fuking moron!! Whitaker, Randall, Oscar, Tszyu, Wise, this guys brought out the quitter and chump in Chavez, while everything is going good even he loooked good, when he had adversity he was a quitter and a dirty fighter. He's no all time great fuking foggott, he's a all time quitter. Stop suking his cock, when the going got tough he QUIT!!!!
also chavez never fought a younger whitaker either else he would have gotten his ass kicked much sooner. This fight was a disgrace for boxing taylor was the victim of a stupid corner and a sloppy referee.
Chavez was a coward; a quiter and a bum; never won the big mega fights, always with a gift like the whitaker fight and this one; randall was older than him and fucked him up, made him quit but got another gift; a headbutt without even blood on his face; tsyu almost killed the prick and poor taylor was the victim of a sloppy referee that doesn't know when to say: " walk towards me" to stop a fight. U are the idiot dumbass
@pkbosslac Everything I said was a fact. You people make Chavez to be an all time great when he's NOT! He was a ok fighter with a great promoter who got him gift decisions, easy fights and once he was 30 he was done as a prime fighter. When you're a brawler you win by facing brawlers, if a brawler fights a boxer he's done and that's what happened to Chavez. Once he faced slick boxers with footwork and handspeed he got his ass handed to him. Then he became a quitter. Those are facts, not hate...
@sly717 you're a fuking moron, Chavez was a QUITTER!! QUIT vs Oscar, QUIT vs Randall in the 2nd fight so he could get a gift, QUIT TWICE vs Oscar, QUIT vs Wise. While he was winning all was OK, once the going was rough he was a QUITTER!! He quitted in his corner like a little bitch. Some fuking warrior, hahaha....
@chifuli1974 yeah yeah sure, you must be right and all boxing experts must be wrong, inducted into the hall of fame, 24 on ESPNs top 50 of all times and 18 in Rings 80 greatest, so you are right, Chavez is a loser, you a winner, come on

Chavez was the truth
DeanCaves 10 months ago
Chavez was a better technical fighter? I don't think Duran won all those titles above lightweight by brawling He wasn't powerful when he moved up in weight. Duran used his technical ability to win those later fights so I don't think Chavez is better defensively

Duran is a Legend no doubt but he NEVER achieved HALF the accomplishments that Julio Cesar Chavez did his record speaks for himself don't kid yourself.
Cudder89 11 months ago
@Cudder89 Roberto gets mad respect for fighting guys like Leonard, Hagler and Hearns. Chavez fought the best of his time too, and had a lot more fights than Duran. Chavez was a better fighter, at least technically as well. A lot people still see Duran's era as a harder time to compete in boxing. I can see why some people say he is the best latin fighter of all time, but to me if they met in their primes Duran's granite chin and big punches would be his only chance against the skill of Chavez.

@vergitacha I also think the box has no color..but it takes balls to get in the ring..Pacquiao does not use steroids has never failed the test ..maybe he uses some substance from the Philippines..we all know mayweather is injected substances in his arms why not inject his body up the ass and gives us the fight we want

Now he's a drug addicted fool who has his son ruin his already messed up name. A QUITTER in his last 5 fights who when was loosing hit low, elbowed and fought dirty. A padded record vs opponents with 8-10 fights when he had 90 and whatever the media says you believe? Please, he emptied the taco stands in Mexico..

@pkbosslac FUCK YOU VERY MUCH, I've done my research at boxrec and what you seeis Chavez beating burrito stand guys tp padd his record, getting gifts left and right and quitting in his biggest fights.

chifuli1974 1 year ago
@pkbosslac Never answered the question, who did Chavez beat who was considered a great fighter in his prime other than this gift? Get Chavez's cock out of your mouth and go to boxrec.com and check where Chavez stands as a all time p4p fighter. He's like 43 and under Oscar de la Hoya. He was a all time great quitter, not fighter...

@chifuli1974 Rosario, Mayweather, Camacho, Laporte, etc etc, he beat the best of his time, you are an asshole
diablocoolo 1 year ago
@diablocoolo Rosario, Mayweather are NOT Hall of Famers, they were average at best, LaPorte was ROBBED and Chavez was BOOOOED when the decision was in his favor and he's no Hall of Famer neither. Camacho was his only legit win and it was after Camacho was doing drugs and at 140. Camacho was at his prime at 130-135 and after the Rosario left hook in the 5th round he was never the same fighter. Taylor and Camacho are his only wins that are worth mentioning and Taylor was robbed by Steele. ASSHOLE
chifuli1974 1 year ago
@chifuli1974 stupid hater ho, u make no sense at all, Laportes face was a mess in the end of the fight, u have to take away the belt from the champ, u have to beat the champ, not fight a close fight and finish like if a car rolled over your face, Edwin Rosario IS A HALL OF FAMER u fuckin stupid bitch! Mayweather was 2 time world champ and Camacho was ranked as 2nd when they fought, WTF is your problem? whats with da hate? maybe your mom sucked on JCs dick when he went to puelto lico n ur angry
diablocoolo 1 year ago
@diablocoolo Quit sucking on that QUITTERS dick!! He beat only brawlers, when he faced fast boxers who moved he was as stupid as he looked. Whitaker made im look silly for 12 rds, so did Randall, Oscar whupped his ass twice and made him QUIT in the corner like a little bitch.Kostya Tszyu made him QUIT on his fuking knees. Some fuking warrior he was! Then he embarrased himself after that over and over again and now he's a drug adicted fagg who is trying to get his chump son to live of his name...

diablocoolo 1 year ago
@diablocoolo Bye Bye Chavez queer, you know, I don't think he was overrated cause he beat PR fighters. Sal Sanchez beat Gomez and I think he's the best pure boxer Mexico has seen, but Chavez beat a bunch of nobodies and even after big fights he fought chumps to pad his record. Look it up yourself, don't take my word for it. He never foguth a pure boxer until Taylor, got his ass whupped and Steele saved his record. Then Randall and Pea embarrass him, when the going got tough he quit or got dirty
chifuli1974 1 year ago
@chifuli1974 LMAO he KOED Taylor and sent him to the hospital for weeks, while Chavez was out partying and celebrating his victory that night in Vegas. How did he get whooped? Oh yea he KOED Taylor again in a rematch. Whittaker was never able to beat Chavez and Randall was only able to beat Chavez in a split decision when he was well past his prime. GTFO.

Whitaker, Randall, Oscar, Tszyu, Wise, this guys brought out the quitter and chump in Chavez, while everything is going good even he loooked good, when he had adversity he was a quitter and a dirty fighter. He's no all time great fuking foggott, he's a all time quitter. Stop suking his cock, when the going got tough he QUIT!!!!

also chavez never fought a younger whitaker either else he would have gotten his ass kicked much sooner. This fight was a disgrace for boxing taylor was the victim of a stupid corner and a sloppy referee.
fernan2901 1 year ago
@pkbosslac
Chavez was a coward; a quiter and a bum; never won the big mega fights, always with a gift like the whitaker fight and this one; randall was older than him and fucked him up, made him quit but got another gift; a headbutt without even blood on his face; tsyu almost killed the prick and poor taylor was the victim of a sloppy referee that doesn't know when to say: " walk towards me" to stop a fight. U are the idiot dumbass
fernan2901 1 year ago
@pkbosslac Everything I said was a fact. You people make Chavez to be an all time great when he's NOT! He was a ok fighter with a great promoter who got him gift decisions, easy fights and once he was 30 he was done as a prime fighter. When you're a brawler you win by facing brawlers, if a brawler fights a boxer he's done and that's what happened to Chavez. Once he faced slick boxers with footwork and handspeed he got his ass handed to him. Then he became a quitter. Those are facts, not hate...
