Julio César Chávez v Félix Trinidad

Big-money title-fight Catch-weight.

Can Tito be effective at a significant weight drop?
Can Chavez stick at 140-145, avoid the rangy-power and get inside?

 

Chavez gets stopped.

 

I was thinking same at 147 (see, Yori Boy Campas, but a tougher fight)

 

Yeah, basically just a longer version of the Campas fight. Chavez is just too damn small to have any success against Trinidad.

 

Trinidad / weight-drain?

 

Chavez wasn't a welterweight. Tito at 147 would be too big and too strong. He'd likely stop him late.

 

Yes. I know.
That would be relevant if welterweight was even being discussed....which it isn't

 

Chavez was terrible above 140 and hence never beat anybody world class. Trinidad would demolish him.

 

Even 141lb?
