Chavez Jr. vs Vanes or Rubio on Feb. 5 Donaire Card

[savorduhflavor]

Per Dan's notebook.

Both are reasonable steps up for Chavez. He could be in trouble with Vanes too.

[orlandoernandez]

What about Martinez? Arent they going to vacate his title if he doesnt fight him next?

[KmanaG]

I really, really don't see the fuss with Vanes. Chavez would be adding his long name to his record if they ever met.

[esconore]

Arent both Vanes and JCC jr trained by Roach?

I didnt even think about that. I guess that fight wont happen.

[Bushbaby]

I'm slowly starting to like JCCjr. I'll take bets on him over either.

[Mr Randy Watson]

Realizing that Chavez will NEVER fight Sergio, I was hoping that Alvarez would fight Vanes in February/March, and that Chavez would fight Rubio or Lee in February, than return 3-4 months later with a super fight against Cotto. And I was hoping Alvarez, if he beat Vanes (which I think he would pretty handily), would fight the Kirkland-Molina winner or Lara.

Also, if Erislandy Lara doesn't get another big shot at 154, after he whooped Williams, than I'd really like to see him move upt o 160 and fight the Pirog-Geale winner, which is something he said he'd do.

[Evil Abed]

Would favor Vanes over him easy.

Rubio-Chavez is a very even fight.

In Rafael's chat he said he thinks Vanes is gonna get that fight.

I don't see how considering the Roach aspect, but take it for what it's worth I guess...
