this is a VERY dangerous man. . . he possesses an EXTREMELY POWERFUL OVERHAND/STRAIGHT RIGHT! he throws this with deadly accuracy. . . he has an iron clad chin, and juevos the size of bowling balls. . . i don't know if he will be able to beat chavez because chavez, unlike lemieux, isn't a fragile little girl who gasses after 5-6 rounds. . . chavez has that extra weight to hold up for 12 rounds. . . i think he'll be able to outwork rubio, and be able to cover up just well enough to eat his right hands. . .

i honestly wouldn't be surprised if he beats martinez, though. . . martinez is VERY vulnerable to jabs and straight punches. . . but he'll prolly be able to pop out enough jabs, and skeet around enough with his fast soccer feet to get the UD

How old is rubio now? He seem to have been around for a while now, I saw him last against Pavlik and to be honest people like Martinez or Chavez Jr should not be losing to a fighter like Rubio at this stage of his career.

Iron clad chin? Same Rubio that got destroyed in .32 seconds by Kofi Jantuah? He has a punchers chance but he's not beating Chavez.

Rubio does have the punchers chance and enough chin to stay in there late with Jr. Don't know if Jr's higher weight will benefit him. 50/50 fight if you ask me

Rubio will give Chavez a good fight because Chavez isn't very talented but I think Chavez will take the win. You really think TR would sacrifice Chavez just yet?

"Martinez 10 times harder than Chavez"? I think Rubio is crazy by saying this comment. Martinez might be better than JR but ten times? Which A class fighter has Martinez impressed on, maybe only Williams who he knocked out with one lucky punch. Name me some other A class fighter Martinez has bitten......

Everyone is expecting Rubio to expose Chavez. I don't think Chavez is a fraud, his record is a fraud. He is strong/has skills but building up his record and making his early fights PPV is pure bull*****. We will see if fighting a string of white clubfighters will come back to haunt him. Lemiuex was much worse. That dude fought no one and never left his cushy Canada.

Rubio can get it too. He will be schooled by Chavez. Chavez may not be elite, but he can get Rubio out of there...
