Nice video man! This got me hyped up for this one. I really can't tell who will win, because they both have such different styles, strengths and weaknesses.
Obviously Chavez is much bigger, stronger and from what I've seen in his last bouts, he has a tremendous chin and some serious body punching. His weaknesses are imo his speed and experience. Yes, he can punch with great power, but he has to connect and that is not easy with a boxer as fast and slick as Martinez.
Martinez in contrast has great speed, technique (his angles and footwork), slickness and overall a better physique. Most importantly, Martinez has much more experience on the highest level (although it looks pale in comparison with that of his (higher) peers in the pound for pound list) and that can become a significant factor in the later rounds. His power doesn't compare to that of Chavez and the question is if he's able to hold off Chavez the whole 12 rounds, because Chavez improved his ability to cut of the ring and as result to do his magic, meaning breaking people down with his ferocious body punches (which I love btw).
Overall, a great matchup and let the best win!
Roach: "Martinez doesn't have a lot of experience"
Chavez Sr: "I do not like Martinez's style. He drops his hands and runs too much. Martinez is a fighter that stinks up boxing."
