Julio Cesar Chavez Jr vs Sergio Martinez Sept 15th - Thomas and Mack, Las Vegas on HBO PPV #ChavezMartinez
While the size worries me, you gotta remember Martinez also fought an 180 pound Pavlik when he was still the WBC jr middleweight champ. And Pavlik is better than Chavez.
lol Martinez will spark Chavez. If you want to wager on it when the time comes let's do it. I'll give you 10-1.
I'm not doubting he will? Still think Martinez wins. All I said is after tonight I give Chavez a little bit more of a chance , which is still not much.
Martinez is going to have to outbox Chavez big time and not trade. After this fight I have a little more even, but damn Chavez is massive and can't get hurt fighting these middleweights.

!) 60/40 split in favour of Chavez
2) The venue is the Staples center, we don't want Martinez robbing us like he robbed Pavlik and Cintron
3) OST. Non-negotiable,
4) Martinez to be followed at all times by security to ensure that chicken shit doesn't flee the country.
Back then I thought Martinez would win
This was the time when he demolished P Williams, and Chavez looked like a fatty at 160.
But in the past year I changed my tune. There is like no way Sergio can win at this point. He wont be able to hurt Chavez. He doesnt have that type of power, and I dont believe anybody at 160 would, maybe Abraham vs Chavez, i would like to see that.
But at 168, he would get demolished by Direll, Ward, Forch.
Nobody will be beating chavez in the first 6 rounds imo, but what if somebody tests his dehydrated body? Constantly making him move, pivot, etc. Martinez doesnt have the power to take him immediately out, but he can wear him down and take him out in the later rounds. Martinez does have the power to contend. As good of a banger that chavez seems to be, he can be outboxed.
Inb4 a 10 x 10 ring
.
martinez hasn't looked too great before the pwill fight or after the pwill fight.
Tell me his record since the fight he put williams to sleep. I'll wait.
Sergio wins period! Sergio knocks out Lee too for those thinking Martinez cant handle it. Chavez is crap and still gets KO'd. Hopefully he brings it on not cowers like i think he will

This, especially if tthe fight is at 160. Martinez has the power to contend, and is very slick, but the biggest factor i see will be martinez' footwork. It will frustrate chavez all night, wear down his dehydrated body and set up the ko in the mid to late rounds....imo
I agree with all of this..
