Sturm busted Zbik up worse than Chavez lol

Everyone knows Sturm is a good fighter and boxer. He gave de la Hoya a hell of a fight.

Chavez had no amateur career. Felix Sturm was an Olympian and has been in something like 17 world title fights as a pro. Frankly it would be embarrassing if Sturm didn't perform better than Jr. I hear you but you can't have it both ways. His people bought him a MW title so being compared to Titlists and the rest of the best in the division is fair.

Sturm left his face worse and made him quit largely with his jab, i repeat, his jab lol. If it was anyone else's jab I would scoff too, but to be fair, Sturm has one of the best jabs (if not the best) from any division.

I don't know about this thread ....but Sturm was ko'D by mutha ****ing casapendajo! /thread Yeah, a two divisions champ is "casapendejo", I would love to see Chavez Jr in the ring with prime Lince, I really would like it. Castillejo beat Karmazin and Sturm, what is more than jr never did.

Considering JCC's size advantage and the contrast between his and Sturm's styles and what JCC is billed as being (relentless, powerful pressure fighter etc) i think there is some validity to what is being said.

Can you imagine what Golovkin would do to Jr? I suspect that Chavez's head would do this once Gena lands http://gifsoup.com/imager.php?id=1666539&t=o

I'm no fan of Chavez Jr. But the bout against Zbik was his first world championship fight ever. Sturm has a tad bit more experience than that, don't you think?

Any one who hyped up Zbik as a solid fighter to make Chavez Jr's resume look good, I just want to talk boxing with them in person. I want to ask a question, and see the look on their face, and what stupid answer they'll give, when I ask them who has Sebastian beaten? "Well he was a top..." wait wait wait, I didn't ask that, i'm asking you who has he beaten? "Well this guy Barker hasn't...." are you deaf? I'm asking you who has Sebastian beaten to make him a solid opponent? I'm not asking you about other Middleweights resumes. In a division where almost everyone hasn't beaten anyone of note, "who has he beaten?" is the wrong question to ask. Zbik on paper is as solid as anyone else until the other top contenders step up and prove otherwise. If you go strictly by "who has he beaten?" nobody is solid in middleweight with maybe 2-3 exceptions.

I agree with that. Actually i would consider the Hassan Njikam/Maksym Bursak winner on equal standing as the Lee/Chavez winner.

I think it reveals that Jr's power is pretty average or below at 160. He's like Clottey at 147. Heavy with little KO power. He's well below Clottey. Clottey can hurt you, he can cut you, bruise you up. His punches are straight and hard, they can snap your head back and draw the crowds attention, as well his opponents attention. He had a prime Margarito holding on to him for dear life, after Tony ran in to an uppercut I think, with his chin all out. He hurt Margarito pretty bad with that one punch.

Sturm is a better fighter than JCC Jr. so him beating a guy worse shouldn't be that surprising. This is accurate.Plus the Zbik that fought against Chavez was not the same guy that was in with Sturm And he doesn't have overrated power bcse he doesn't have power he fights with a double digit weight advantage and doesn't even bruise up guys

Well style makes fights. But, again it reflects at the level Chavez is at. Which is also reflects on how funny it is Martinez wanting this guy so bad. Which reflects on the fans wanting such a fight also. But, if Chavez can beat Lee legitimately no one at MW besides maybe Sturm would have put in the work more so than Chavez to get the Martinez fight. If Chavez beats Lee legitimately I wouldn't say that Macklin nor Murray has/had put in more work than him at 160. I do agree what you're saying though about fans being skewed what they want to see. However, I think what would make the Murray and a Barker funny is that they even look at Pirog direction yet they look at these type of opponents. That is what makes that funny IMO. If the Pirog vs Geale happens then that winner will be the #1 not Chavez/Lee

Nothing I suppose. But, don't knock anyone else hustle for doing the same thing. Go make crappy ass fights that make you money. More power to you , just don't talk shit about other fighters who make crappy fights for business decisions that's all. Because, when you do, it comes off as hypocritical and becomes funny to me. I don't do that. I don't like it but I don't blame fighters for doing it.

Both Murray and macklin put on performances against Sturm that IMO make them more credible opponents than Chavez on paper. But, for whatever reason Martinez will get crucified for taking those fights, but it's ok to chase the Chavez fight? (that, in theory, should be less risky). The logic behind what people would like to see in the MW division is skewed I think.
