Pacquiao would beathim I think. Chavez style was pretty similar to barerra, and we all saw what happened there. Sure Chavez is better than Barerra, so it would be more competitive, but I still think he either get stopped late, or lose a clear dec.
Pacquiao beats Chavez at 135 because he beat a MAB who'd fallen in love with 'boxing' at featherweight. :atu:
You could put horseshoes in his gloves and Pacquaio ain't stopping Chavez I'd pick Chavez without hesitation
Can't see any way Pacquiao wins honestly. I mean, I know styles make fights but I don't see a prime Julio having too many problems with JMM. I think JCC outboxes Pacquiao, coming forward with his jab, moving his head to avoid Pacquiao's shots, and breaking down his body. Chavez via UD or late stoppage.
Chavez is way over rated in here. Obviously, he was a magnificent fighter. But any prediction here that suggests anything but a close and competitive fight is giving one of the fighters too much credit.
