Mexico has produced many great fighters over the years but the greatest of them all was undoubtedly Julio Cesar Chavez. He was a boxer known for his punching power, a chin made of rock and the relentless stalking of his opponents in the ring. He was so good he even had more than one nickname. He was the 'Caesar of Boxing', the 'Great Mexican Champion' and 'Mr KO.'

He was born in Sonora in 1962 and turned professional at the tender age of just 17. He went on an incredible undefeated run of 87 fights without loss and won world championships in three different weight divisions. He fought everyone put in front of him and never dodged a fight. Along the way he fought and beat boxing greats like Hector Camacho, Greg Haugen and Edwin Rosario.

In a career full of legendary moments, he is probably most well known for the fight against Meldrick Taylor, the undefeated IBF Light Welterweight Champion in 1990. Taylor dominated the fight, winning the first eight rounds, but with four rounds left Chavez started the comeback. It ended with Chavez stopping Taylor with just seconds left in the last round. Great fighters have great fights and this was one the best ever seen.
