And why is he fighting such a young fighter compared to him? Is he gonna get that ass beat? I've only seen Robinson fight against Gatti once.

As far as I know this is the first fight that he considered a "farewell" however this fight must bring in some excitement considering that Jcc is well not young anymore but he thinks he still got the flame. Fighting a much younger opponent. this must set some record.

Robinson is WAY over the hill, even more-so than Chavez, but I'm sad to see either guy in a prizefight, Mighty Ivan never really cashed in after he beat Gatti & he should have retired after Antonio Diaz pummeled him....and Chavez should have quit after he DID cash in vs. Oscar in '96 to the tune of 8mil.

Lately all of Chavez fights have been farewell bouts. I remember him saying that his last fight against Frankie Randell was going to be his last. He even had a fight in Mexico a few years ago that was supposed to be his last.

Robinson is past it but i think this is a stupid fight for Chavez to take. Robinson outboxes slow, old opponents for fun! This will be a one sided points win for Ivan Robinson!

This fight with robinson would be the second farewell bout so far. By the way the real show that night will be Jesus "El Matador" Chavez vs Carlos "El Famoso" Hernandez.

It wasn't a win. It was a draw that should read as an L in Chavez' record.

...Yeah, but IMO that record is inflated with poor competition. and I think he may have been one of the most overated ever. He was sooooooo lucky in that Meldrick Taylor fight.

I don't care what anybody says Chavez gave Taylor a beating in that fight. My scorecard was alot closer than what most people will say. Chavez consistently hit Taylor with the harder shots all night long while Taylor was throwing quick punches that weren't even landing at times.

Hey! Boxrec changed their account of his fight with DLH. They said he didn't come out for round 9 before. They have it right now, though. I couldn't believe how fast and badly he got cut, though. He wasn't even hit with a shot you'd think would open someone's eye like that.

I know I thought Chavez had already retired but I guess he hasn't had enough of the fight game yet. Or maybe he just needs money.

Its gotta be for money i think. JCC will beat a very shopworn Robinson in a boring decision or late TKO.JCC is well past his prime but Ivan is at brain damage stage of his career now

Now that I think about it, I agree with you JCC has to be fighting for the money at this point. :bling:
