    Who wins this explosive match up? Could Chapo's power be enough to beat a cold assassin like Nazarov?

    Nazarov was underrated, but he's out of his depth against Rosario. He would get caught with the same kind of shots that forever altered Camacho's style, and he would be unable to handle them.

    Rosario by KO in a good fight while it lasts.

    I remember the Nazarov years, don’t think I ever did saw him fight though. Rosario either for that matter.

    Nope. There’s actually a lot of the more famous fighters from the 70’s and 80’s I never saw fight like Azuma Nelson and a host of others. I actually didn’t really become a hardcore boxing fan until around 95 or so. At the start my only access before I joined the military in 96 was whatever came on regular cable and FNF’s. So early on two of my favorite fighters to watch were Johnny Tapia and old man Vinny Paz.

    Well, with YouTube around now, you have access to watching all those guys.

    Nelson vs Sanchez & Rosario vs Ramirez II are must watches IMO.

    Well, Rosario-Ramirez II is the best Rosario action fight.

    If Lb 4 Lb wants to get a measure of Rosario at his best, then watch his annihilation of Bramble.

    Or you can watch Rosario-Camacho, which was a good fight, and Rosario deserved the decision.

    Yes, Rosario-Davis is also a good fight.

    For LB 4 LB, if you wanna see a good Rosario fight, and don't mind if its a fight that he gets fucked up in, then you can always watch Chavez-Rosario.

    Rosario was always fun to watch. Ramirez, Davis, Bramble, Randall, Chavez, etc; were all fun to watch IMO. Extremely explosive puncher with solid fundamentals and while I question the actual usefulness of his footwork, it was definitely aesthetically pleasing.
