When Unknown Julio Cesar Chavez Confronted Mayweather 

I heard he fought opponent's every 2 months for 13 years. No one is doing that now! Give this great boxer his props!

Lil Floyd learned 3 great lessons from his uncle; 1-Dont fight ranked Mexicans in their prime, 2-Dont fight ranked Filipinos in their prime (they are just like Mexicans), 3; Promote yourself and only fight who you know you can absolutely without a doubt beat!!!!

Chavez was an absolute beast. One of the all time greatest boxers ever. 90 straight fights without a loss . 115 fights in total only 6 lost & 1 draw. Amazing career👍👍.

107-6-2 record with 86 knockouts, the man was a machine and arguably one of the top 10 fighters of all time.

He defeated 19 world champs in the 3 belt era, thats like beating 27 today. He also has the #1 records for most title fights 37, most defenses 27 with 23 kos, first unified champion in 3 divisions, and only fightet to be crowned p4p 3 consecutive years.

I saw Mr. Mayweather from time to time. Floyd’s gym is around the corner from my work. Both Rodger and Senior always took time to say hi to me. Rodger was a nice person very humble and sweet. May he RIP!

Chavez would've beat Floyd Mayweather too!

Chavez was so good he actually reached for Mayweather's jaw and caught him..ty for your contributions to boxing Julio!

Chavez undoubtedly one of greatest fighters of all time in any weight category a real legend

That leap of a punch was amazing 🤩 that man was magic.

El mas grande campeón que ha dado México y que muy difícilmente se volverá a ver EL GRAN CAMPEÓN MEXICANO ¡JULIO CESAR CHAVEZ!

Roger told me he told his corner, "You go out there and fight that mother f'er. I'm through!" LOL I loved Roger. He helped train me as an amateur and he was always good to me. RIP my brotha!

Julio was an iron man that hit accurately hard with both hands and never seemed to get tired or hurt. I've never seen good fighters wilt like they did when fighting him.

chavez was just a force of nature in his prime. Just kept coming and delivering.

Great fight with one exception-constantly seeing Don King's smiling/corrupt face. The one thing that always scars these great fights from the past.

Respect to Roger what a warrior your contribution to boxing will live forever! Viva Mexico 🇲🇽 cabrones!

Julio not only was relentless pressure, he was hitting the opponent all the time. Julio had a chin of iron, Floyd hit him with shots that had KO’d other fighters and Julio walked through them. Chavez was in my top five Mexican warriors of all time.

This man Julio César Chávez Sr will always be remembered as a boxing goat and one of the greatest to ever lace em up. Not just by the proud Mexican community but by boxing fans worldwide. Unfortunately his drug abuse, bad/unhealthy money spending habits and his wife almost divorcing him due to his bad habits was what had something to do with his downfall towards the end of his epic career. Not to take anything away from the skilled boxers that beat him during the end of his career. But no doubt a mentally and physically healthy Julio would have performed differently.

Julio Cesar Chavez whooped Roger Mayweather two times. Sugar Ray Leonard whooped Floyd Mayweather Sr. Jose Luis Castillo whooped Floyd Mayweather Jr and Oscar De La Hoya also whooped Floyd Mayweather Jr and whooped Jeff Mayweather

5:03 WOW!!! He put everything into that punch😮

Chavez is revered by most Boxing historians but it’s crazy to imagine a time when he was a nobody and guys like Roger Mayweather and Hector Camacho were considered the superstars.

Under rated but all boxing fans know who’s the king of boxing Chavez!

Was always excited to see Chavez fight, I knew he wasn't going to run. One of the most exciting fighters ever. He overstayed his visit in the ring. In his younger days he would have beat all the ones he lost to. But that's what happens in boxing. Mexicans call him la leyenda or the legend. Never saw him give a boring fight. Eres El campeon Chavez. Heart of a lion.

Basically a flying right hand. Amazing

Chavez is the most UNDERRATED champion in boxing HISTORY!!! Even if the first say, 50 guys, were tomato cans, to never have an "off night" for as long as he did, its UNPRECEDENTED and will NEVER happen again!!!

That is a crazy stat, 90 fights without a loss. How is he not talked about as much as even Marciano?

One of the best records in pro boxing, yes he was defeated 6 times but after 106 fights. Not 50 but over 100 fights and he boxed and did not dance around the ring and win with mostly "points" but knockdowns!

!! HAIL CESAR !! 🥊✊🏽🇲🇽✊🏽🥊💯

RIP Rodger Mayweather

Chavez probably has the most underrated DEFENSE of all time. His head movement was the stuff of legends. They kept trying to paint mayweather as the better "boxer" just because chavez was aggressive and came forward, but that's nonsense. Chavez was the more skilled boxer and it showed both times they fought.

The real goat

Chavez destroyed that philly shell with overhand rights. Sweet since from the GOAT chavez.

The most disciplined n the most talented fighter that we know in the era of 1985 - 1995. And the most fundamental text book fighter ever. Quite assuredly indeed.

This is the type of fight where the LDBC would say " Mayweather won that fight besides quitting on his stool"

Why Chavez doesn't get credit on his defense? He was one the most efficient defense fighters; his defense would give him the split of second to counter attack with so much accuracy needless to say about his ring cutting foot work phenomenal.. I don't understand why trainers outthere haven't studied him in detail. He was no flashy on his foot and hand move- no big moves, and speaking of short and efficient moves hands and foot, he was in another level , and his body structure to strike always ready to punch with so much power from any angle. THE GOAT.

Great! Love the Chavez knockout reel at the end too

Him vs sweet p was one of the best fights I've seen in boxing. Just 2 guys in their prime going at it

The greatest of all time

What a war that rematch was. Two great champions. And this video was awesome, great edit my friend.

Great Vid. Good to put things in perspective in the time period. Keep them coming.

One of the all time best. Had a champions heart, with a warrior mentality.

My respect to both warriors Rip mw

Glad to say i was there at this fight

Julio Cesar Chávez, único e inigualable boxeador Mexicano.

Love this channel man

You are looking at the real GOAT boxer. No one has been so dominant as Chavez was. Period!

Thanks for the video

One of the greatest fights and boxers of all time. Respect to both. Chavez was a beast!! Go Chavez!!

Roger call himself the mexican assassin and still lost😂

It pisses me off when someone says that Chavez wasn't the greatest Mexican fighter of all time...this guy fought everyone and didn't have fights once a year either...

I always love your research, detailed breakdowns, great footage, and dramatic and poetic work! NOBODY does it better, B.A.D.!

great job , just subscribed. cant wait to watch more of your videos. keep up the great work!

Stopped his ass twice🇲🇽

Wow amazing channel! Absolutely subscribed immediately. I've never even heard of this fight.

Long before Julio Cesar Chávez became a World Champion, he was scheduled to fight in Los Angeles. During the previous days before the fight, he and one of his brothers visited the newspaper office La Opinion. They were interviewed. Julio Cesar told about his dreams and hopes. He wanted everything for his family, to help to put a bread on the table, to buy a house for her mom, etc. The interview was published and I was fortunate enough to read it in the sports section. He won his fight in Los Angeles, and from there he went on to become a legend. He's top 5 of best boxers in history.

R.I.P. Roger, what a class act you were. You made the Mayweather name in this great sport and you'll never be forgotten.😊

Roger has my respect out of all the mayweathers because he put people to sleep with his hands and not his performance. Meldrick Taylor is another good fighter that I admired.

Downplaying one of the 🐐. This man not only won Mexico hearts he became the peoples champion of his time.

These were great fighters in a great era. I am glad I was a boxing fan as a kid in the 80's. The first fight I saw was when Ray Boom Boom Mancini fought Korean Do Ku Kim, sadly Kim died from that match.

Funny how the “Unknown” challenger had 44-0

Roger Mayweather is definitely a legend. Rest Easy 🙏🏽.

Great presentation!

5:03 WOW!!! He put everything into that punch. God Bless both of these warriors .

My respects to Roger Mayweather RIP he stood there and slugged it out with any opponent unlike his bicycle riding nephew Floyd may weather .

I admired how Roger Mayweather opologized for the punch after the bell, and Julio Chavez accepted his opology. True sportsmanship.

When i think of Chavez, i think of the old guys in anime that always beats you. Ive only watched Chávez in the 90s. His record of 90 straight wins, unreal.

Really liking the content

That 2nd knockdown was devastating. Im surprised Roger got up from that one. RIP Roger Mayweather

Shame that he failed to instill a sense of class and respect in his cheap shotting nephew.

Cool video I subscribed! I'm 58 years old so I love the generation that was in my prime! The fighters today have nothing on the old school fighters! Peace ✌️

A Legend with a win record no one in his category has ever beaten. 89-0.🥊🥊

I must say ,the two greatest fighters in the history of boxing are holeo cazar Chavez ,and Floyd Mayweather Jr the difference is Mayweather wins backward movement ,Chavez wins all moving forward. Roger was a great fighter as well ,in a class with all great fighters. 🙏 Roger ,rest in peace.

Chavez was a beast. Is an all-time great. But lost to Whitaker in my estimation.

JJC was a demolishing machine round to round ~ His fierce outboxing and skills made him a lethal boxer hard to hit ~ He sustained so much punishment and would come back with same fierceness - I'm amazed and proud that Mexico had such elite boxer

Excellent presentation.

Julio started using drugs like 2 years before of his first lost. This man was unbeatable. If he would have retired when he had 89-0, he maybe would have been the first in the rank in pound4pound in all time boxing history. Chavez has been called the best mexica fighter of all time and it's super misleading by a lot of expert, he is one of the best fighter of all time not only in Mexico, it was for the whole world. He had chin, stamina, defense, and he put a nonstop pressure to obliterate any fighter, he was a real machine, he can win any fight in any era, no matter for that beast. He fought against 27 world champions. In my opinion is the best second boxer of all time behind Sugar Ray Robinson. Sugar Ray Robinson had a record of 129 and 1 before he lost to Randy Turpin and the first time he retired at the age of 32 years old he had 132-3.

Very good video!

Too bad Julio son's are all jokes, none are really great boxer who can carry on their fathers name in boxing.

FYI: Chavez first displayed his talents in the U.S. v. (Not Thee) Jerry Lewis at the Memorial Stadium in Sacramento. Two more fights at the venerable Grand Olympic Auditorium in Los Angeles, CA followed prior to his breakout win v. "Azabache" Martinez (also at "the Olympic"), followed by Ruben Castillo (ditto!) and Roger Mayweather in Vegas.

nice work

There will never be another boxer like Chavez again

One, if not the most respected Boxer in Mexico….. I must have been 7 when I saw one his fights

Great Video

Great fights🥊

God Bless both of these warriors 🙏😎

Wow you have a talent for storytelling and are really developing into a great channel. I hope you feel satisfaction that is well deserved after combining your passion, intellect and craft all together into this video so graciously for us to view. Thanks.

Gracias por esas inolvidables peleas . Ya es muy dificil encontrar peleadores de ese nivel Gracias por los recuerdos Gracias Chavez . Gracias Roger Maywether .

Outstanding tribute. Thank you. His main gift to us was the training of Floyd.

Best Superman punch ever

Chavez whooped that ass. Philly Shell defense was no match for Chavez. In the 2nd fight, made him quit on his stool.

He did a leaping right ..... beautiful

Rogers "Shoulder Roll" was So Perfected tho😁😁😁

me aficioné al boxeo viendo a Chávez.un saludo de un español de Barcelona,al pueblo mexicano.cuna de grandes boxeadores.

*Julio doing the Superman Punch against Mayweather😅😅😅😅.*

Epic jumping right hand to cover the distance.

he was an inspirational man that find a skill to atack and defend at the same time . rnp.

Well done

Can't believe Richard Steele called the first knockdown a slip

The Black Mamba Roger Mayweather talked about the respect for Julio and said the reason Chavez won, was his great chin, he said man I hit him so hard and he kept coming.
