Prime Jeff Chandler vs Prime Alfonso Zamora at Bantamweight

Post by scorpio83 »

Who would win this match up in their prime at Bantamweight? Would Chandler wear Zamora down by out-boxing him behind his long left jabs and combinations to settle a decision or a late round stoppage between 12 to 15 rounds? Would Zamora have his energy left to catch Chandler in the later rounds to score a late stoppage win?

Chandler by tko in 10 or 11. His jab would eat Zamora up.

I gotta go with Chandler. More refined overall game, Zamora is the bigger one hit puncher, but barring a hail mary KO I don't think he has the goods to beat Chandler. Chandler would beat him the majority of the time.

Joltin Jeff by 11th round TKO. After a couple of early scary rounds, by the fifth, Jeff is in complete control against Alfonso.

It would be a good strategy for Joltin' Jeff should the fight happened back then.
