Now, I'm not saying that McGirt was as good of a fighter as Chavez, because he wasn't, but he did give Whitaker a tough fight.

Good call. Been a while but I scored that on 115-114 for Mcgirt.Maybe the excessive clowning swayed me Lol.Consider how close it was and Buddy was also fighting with a torn up Rotator cuff ??

Would have absolutely loved it if RJJ and Gerald McClellan fought each other, it would have been a great fight, i reckon McClellan would have KOd RJJ within 6 rounds!

Such a shame what happened to him though

Yea but McGirt had no injuries in the rematch and Whitaker won the rematch pretty handily.
