I heard he schooled or beat up Taylor in sparing all the time.
He was also the only sparring partner to hang with Cintron.
What's with his name, he's not chinese?
I could have chose Amir Kahn too. Probably should have chose him.
The last fight I saw, he was brilliant.
I wouldn't choose Andre Berto. He's just waiting to be beaten badly... Every
fighter is, but with Andre it seems like he's in love with is explosive power already.
He's learning, but I think Amir and Andy will learn faster than him in the long run.
Chavez Junior has the pedigree and the promoter in Bob Arum. He has the sparring,
direction, team, father, maybe even genetic advantage ... but I think boxing is more than all of those combined.
In the end, it always comes to personal mental toughness. You can't teach that or buy that.
It's a personal decision. His father had it, but chances are "Junior" doesn't have it.
