My mistake, Chavez-Vera is at 168, which is not a catch-weight... #boxing
Jr has made the jump up.....
I'm so disappointed with this guy. I was fan but he's lack of discipline is so off putting I can't stand the guy anymore. What sucks is with his size, chin and body attack he could have been a dominate middleweight.
Fat ass has less time to train than Floyd and Canelo and he has to lose at least 40lbs. Vera is going to be fighting a cruiserweight come fight night. Chavez has to learn that you can't become a great fighter without discipline and sacrifice. A beard alone isn't going to cut it. I don't think Freddy was healthy enough to deal with his bs. Chavez could use a trainer like Pedro Diaz but he will end up with Robert Garcia and continue to be coddled.
It's going to look like a college guy beating on a 5th grader. Jesus christ I can only imagine the size difference fight night. Vera is a 154 pounder really. Dude is smaller than martinez. And Chavez is probably going to rehydrate to 190 lbs because of the 168 limit.
Bika is Golden Boy and Showtime.
Then the WBC will make Chavez the mandatory and conveniently strip Bika, making Brain MaGee, Rosinsky, or Periban the other challenger for the vacant title.
Ward was talking about "Cinco de Mayo" 2014 for a Chavez bout, but I'm guessing the fight wouldn't be on that date as FMJ will take it.
It's a good fight tho, Chavez also likes to work inside.
They may go head to head
My guess is that Chavez will make a play for Ward next.

I'm guessing this is the reason.

Feel kinda bad for Vera. Everything was already stacked against him.
Chavez is a muthafuckin joke.
