Comments Thread For: Photos: Chavez Jr., Fonfara Face To Face at Weighin

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. is set for his first fight under the Al Haymon advisory banner. The second-generation boxing star and former middleweight titlist returns to the ring following a 13-month hiatus, as he takes on perennial Top 10 light heavyweight contender Andrzej Fonfara.

Their bout headlines live on Showtime from StubHub Center in Carson, California, to be fought at a maximum catchweight of 172 lbs. Both fighters did their part to keep the main event afloat, at least at the scales.

Chavez Jr. tipped the scales at 171.6 lbs., with his every step and look cheered wildly by adoring fans on hand. Fonfara - just 11 months removed from a failed title bid versus Adonis Stevenson - came in at 171.4 lbs., his lightest weight since moving up to the light heavyweight division for good in 2010.

Fonfara has decent boxing skills, but he looks drain in that pic, we'll see. i think he beats Chavez jr if he doesn't get robbed.

Chavez Haters just let out a collective shart when they saw this physique. Chavez Sr is now officially known as Father Of Legend.

WAR WALTERS!!!


WAR CHAVEZ!!!

I think you mean Imam, not Walters.


Fonfara doesn't look like he can spare one more pound, good for him on making that weight. Hope he whups Chavez's ass, but I really think the CW will kick in the later rounds if Chavez invests in body work.
