    I do think this fight in 83 and his last fight before this in late 82 finished Bobby. They were two killer back to back fights. These fights ruined Chacon for his bridge to far fight with Mancin in early 84 🥊

    Bobby Chacon always left it all in the ring. One of the most exciting fighters of that era. He paid a terrible price for the style he fought. It was sad the way it all ended for him but he did it his way.

    the Limon fight the year before was one of the greatest-and this was the best I've seen ever-until 2016 watched a replay of Ward-Gatti 1....terrible what happened to Bobby,and incredible that Arguello would stop both of them yet lose to Vilomar Fernandez

    Bobby Chacon and Bazooka Limon that was one of the greatest championship fights I’ve ever witnessed. Boxing Experts don’t give Bobbys Chicone a lot of credit he was masterful with his legs he could move in and out he remind me of the times of Willie pep without movement on his legs took too much punishment but boy was he an all-time great I would’ve bought a ticket anytime! Rest in peace Bobby you’ll never be forgotten!

    Man...sometimes Boza just couldn’t help himself. There were guys he could have easily outboxed from the outside-like Chacon-but he was always willing to get down in the trenches and go to war...even when he didn’t have to.

      @Odawg96 3 роки тому +1

      Parker Thomas Very true. One thing about Boza: you can’t say that he was EVER in a boring fight. Even when Macho Camacho ran from him for 11 rounds, we knew there was a very REAL possibility that Boza could detonate some TNT on Macho’s chin in the 12th.

  • @esunsalmista
    @esunsalmista 3 роки тому +4

    The second half of this fight has some of the most embarrassing commentary I've ever heard. I understand caring for a boxer and if I had had the power, I'd probably stop the fight somewhere around the 8th. But it wasn't stopped, and they doubled down on the narrative that Chacon had nothing left. Called Chacon's punches in the final rounds "lucky". Those punches were intentional, he wasn't throwing wildly.

    Great fight but the scorecards were a disgrace. No problem with Chacon winning. I scored 113-112 Boza but the margins of victory were an insult to Boza. Magnificent fight though and a great era with Limon, Navarette, Boza and Chacon.

    Jackie McCoy was a stablemate of my Dad back in the 1940s and all my family were at this fight. Jackie apologized to us before the fight for working Boza Edwards corner as his cut man. Dad said, that's ok Jackie, a job is a job. It was the last time they saw each other. Jackie told me he could not believe how hard a puncher my Dad was with a flabby body and skinny arms. Dad retired 31-0.

      Chacon doesn't get the credit he deserves for being such an incredible warrior. He deserves all the credit in the world for how much he gave of himself.

    They say that one punch can change a man, but when you take the amount of punishment these guys gave each other, it's no wonder they enter senility at an early age. God bless both of these guys. RIP Bobby.

    Sitting here watching a fight that happened nearly 40 years ago, and even though I knew both the outcome of the match and the fact that Chacon's brain was gradually turning into pudding from beatings like this, it still kept me watching until the last bell. These were a couple of hard fighters

    This should have been a WBC Super Feather Weight tittle defence now held by Bobby Chacon ? I wonder why this wasent a WBC defence anyone 🤔 ?.

    • @byronleehorne3418
      @byronleehorne3418 3 роки тому +3

      Chacon was stripped for failing to defend against Hector Camacho. Basically, Chacon was stitched up by the WBC/Jose Sulaimain and Don King. Camacho ended up beating Bazooka Limon for the vacant WBC strap and this went ahead as a 12 round non-title bout. Chacon sued but ended up moving up to lightweight to challenge Ray Mancini. I highly recommend Christian Guidice's book 'Macho Time' which covers this whole era brilliantly. Or see Camacho-Limon on youtube where they explain the situation in the build up to the fight (far better than I can!)

    The “Fright Doctor” in fine form. Ferdie Pacheco always seemed to forget that he was a witness to a violent sport like boxing. These dudes were warriors!

    • @jimrauh3584
      @jimrauh3584 2 роки тому +2

      Indeed. My dad always felt like the "Fright Doctor" was in the wrong line of business (would go on to comment, florist maybe?). Anyway, what I thought striking is neither Marv or Fright mentioned the great bodywork that Chacon would periodically commit to. You could sometimes see Edwards cringe slightly from those shots. Nonetheless, an absolute war and a toughness from two guys that is rarely seen.

      Bobby suffered from dementia pugilistica (boxer's syndrome). The guy had the heart of a Lion, but defence wise, he took far too many punches. What a fighter tho. He sadly died in 2016.

      Happily, you could not be more wrong about Boza. He runs marathons (aged 63) with his daughter and helped manage the Mayweather gym until retiring very recently. A real success story. A successful businessman even then when he was champion too.
