Julio César Chávez vs. Meldrick Taylor II, billed as Unfinished Business, was a professional boxing match contested on September 17, 1994, for the WBC super lightweight title.
"[5][6] Instead Taylor would move up to the welterweight division to challenge WBA titlist Aaron Davis on January 19, defeating him by unanimous decision to become a 2-division world champion.
[7] After over four years of waiting, King would announce in August 1994 that the long-awaited rematch between Chávez and Taylor would occur the following month on September 17.
[8] However, both Chávez and Taylor's reputation's had taken a hit; Chávez had lost his unbeaten streak earlier in the year, losing to Frankie Randall in January and then barely beating him in a rematch in May, while Taylor had been blown out in back-to-back world title matches in 1992 and had only faced marginal competition since, somewhat dulling the luster of the rematch.
Dazed and bleeding from his mouth, Taylor answered referee Mills Lane's 10-count at eight and was allowed to continue the fight, but was quickly met with a bevy of punches to head from Chávez.
