Super Featherweights: Julio Cesar Chavez vs Azumah Nelson

Post by scorpio83 »

This is a hard question, at their best at Super Featherweight would Chavez swarm over Nelson and pounded him on the body and head for a decision win in 15 rounds or would Nelson outbox him with jabs and counters for a decision win in 15 rounds? Imo, Chavez would wear him down with punches to the body and head off the ring to take a decision despite unable to put Nelson away. What do you guys think?

I like Chavez in this one and I don't see it as being very close. To me, Nelson was no Sweet Pea and he isn't outboxing Chavez.

Nelson was better than Lockridge.Chaves at 130 had a lot problems with Rocky.

Nelson by Dec, though he'd likely get robbed. It would be a brawl, Chavez wasn't at his best at 30.

I see Azumah as one of the few to take Chavez..

The Chavez that struggled with LaPorte does not beat Nelson at super featherweight. At lightweight a different story though.

Chavez would back Nelson up and out work him similar to fenech in the first fight .
