I saw this on TV in '82 and never forgot it. Today I see it for the 2nd time thanks to Юрий Бельчев and KZbin. A fight no fan should be unaware of.

They don't make 'em like this anymore. FOTY justly deserved. I'm an Angeleno from back in the day - Bobby was a fave in LA and had a HUGE fan base. I wish he could have held it together outside of the ring. But inside of it, there can be no doubt he had it. As Garret Ramirez put it so on point, that thing they call "heart" is defined here. And Bazooka - a tip of the hat and thanks for this masterpiece. RIP Bobby, Cali boy forever.

When I saw this fight in 1982 I said in my head, "This is one of the greatest fights of all times." Bobby was a real hero to us in the Sacramento area. He was the kind of a fighter that just would not quit. That would hurt him later in his life. I watched him his whole career and what a magnificent career it was. So many classic fights. IMO this fight and a few of his other ones will live on in the future as some of the greatest ever. Bobby represented for his family, himself and all Chicanos. He sure deserves to RIP. A real champion. 15-round fights were normal in those days. Thank God they brought it down to 12. A lot of fighters lost a lot of themselves in those extra 3 rounds.

One of my all-time favorite fights I remember it like yesterday haven’t watch this in 30 years. Bobby Chacon is one of the greatest boxers that I’ve witnessed. Took too much punishment but he had a great leg movement to keep him alive and all these fights that he’s been in !The experts never give him his credit for being a master boxer. Sometimes he remind me of Willie pep in and out with those legs. Rest in peace Bobby you are a great champion.

I lived just north of Sacramento and Bobby Chacon was our hero. I remember watching this fight, and thinking at the time that I was watching one of the greatest fights I had ever seen. My first love was Ali, of course and I didn't miss one of his fights. But the heavyweights could end it with one punch. With the featherweights there was a lot more boxing and banging. Great fight and RIP Bobby. You are a warrior and always will be. Bazooka (what a nickname) I hope you're still alive. You could sure take a punch and throw one, too.

The left hook from a right handed fighter is the best punch against a South paw.
@franksantucci30387 ай бұрын
But in all fairness, a fast straight right lead is also a good punch from an orthodox fighter against a South paw, only problem is if it isn't fast enough, or you don't connect, you're walking right into the South paws power shot...

What a fight when fights were 15 rounds. Both guys gave and took a lot of punishment and the punch volume was incredible. Both had to be in tremendous shape. It looked like Bozooka was wilting starting in 13 and Chacon had him out on his feet twice but he held and survived. Hats off and much respect to both these warriors. Mani e Mano.

Champs had to take nontitles even if unprepared...with no tape of the fighter and no game plan because of the small purses.....almost happened to Duran and Sanchez.
