Comments Thread For: Chavez Jr: $1 Million Fine For Every Pound I'm Over With Canelo

[Ray*]

Ward beat him at 168.

That's what happens when posters are just fanboys, who don't really follow boxing.... honest mistake!

thought you were a pacfan ?

Pac demanded - an unheard of - 3.5mil for Hoya, and then he wanted 10mil for Mayweather

A lot of posters on here don't really follow boxing, they are brought into boxing by GGG in September 2012 when he beat proksa.

LOL that's all his promoter's rules. Like he'd care who fights on his card. But I do agree with him about the weight. More and more Canelo will be fighting at 10 pounds heavier, which means his punches shrink. Don't be angry, it's just the way weights work until you've been there for a year or so. Jr. can bang at that weight and weights above. He's going to be dangerous. That's what makes this such a fun fight to watch because Canelo is so skilled. Definitely going to be fun to bet on. I'm going to try to take some Jr money on the off chance, because I think he can bully around and has a great chin.

Doesnt matter. It was below 175 so Dawson defends his title by defintion..

no, it was below 168..... so LHW lineage is unaffected

Ward aint the lineal LHW champ

but you're right, he sure is lovely

[batista84]

But Ward beat Dawson before that dude. So he must be champion by your standards.

Not my standards

Also don't forget Dawson came down to face Ward, Ward didn't beat him at LHW.

ward actually was the lineal 175 pound champ after beating rodriguez who came into the fight at lhw, rodriguez beat grachev, who beat erdei, who beat gonzalez, who beat dariusz. obv kovalev beat ward so he should be the champ but offiically no.

i don't believe that

if correct, you just proved why " lineage " is horribly over-rated and should never be taken seriously..... but yea, i don't believe that fight was a LHW contest

some folks rate/rank Canelo at middleweight, for beating lil old faded 153lb Cotto..... so yea, lineage gets a big whoop-de-fcuk from me

[Chuckguy]

Haters gonna hate but I'll be drunk AF watching the lineal middleweight champion Canelo whoop that spoiled brat JR @ T-Mobile Arena on Cinco de Mayo weekend, Yeah buddy..

Where he could have fought GGG instead of a circus act in JR. There is no way in hell that JR can win. I don't see how people think this is a good fight.
