is chavez really "easy work" for canelo?

At that weight Chávez is tough as a MF.

The man was born with his father's chin and will walk into the ring near 180lbs https://scontent-atl3-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t31.0-8/fr/cp0/e15/q65/17635271_10100907414146981_2711984238876455794_o.jpg?efg=eyJpIjoidCJ9&oh=e87736c0461b0f93b6d6b12a09ad9c5b&oe=59988CFB this mofo look ready for war to me.. is it really "easy work" as most suggest? On those two measurements alone, the assumption was always that the fight would be a full day's work for Alvarez; the caveat was always that, with Chavez Jr's preparation being what it is, he wouldn't show up on fight night in shape to actually try to fight to win. The photos from the camp seem to show that Chavez Jr is doing the work needed to come ready to fight (already being in the saunas and still over 175lbs has me glancing at some concern, though). On pure ability, I still think that Alvarez is the better fighter, but, if Chavez Jr can properly shave off that final 10-12 pounds, Alvarez is walking into the ring with a 6'1, 180lb fighter who isn't going to go anywhere (Chavez Jr was able to go a full nine rounds with a legit light heavyweight fighter, and the only way it stopped was because he mentally quit on the fight). Chavez Jr likely doesn't get stopped, but I don't think he has the ability to pick 7 of 12 rounds against Alvarez (because Alvarez doesn't seem like the type to go anywhere either).

His size and height advantage will be an issue for Canelo but don't let that fool you too much, Chavez Jr is a mediocre fighter after all. There really is such thing as "big for nothing".

GBP wouldn't put Saul Alvarez in a fight they didn't see him winning with ease at this point.

There is no contest in terms of skill. Chavez is going to have a 4 inch height advantage, 2.5 inch reach advantage, and a 40 pound weight advantage.

All of em either have or had 100x the work ethic and passion of Jr. For this particular fight, that may not be the case.

He now needs to focus on more boxing and tactics rather than his weight. He's got a month left to figure out Canelo.

Chavez doesn't need more skills to beat Canelo. Size, tenacity and durability can take him to victory. Look at Margarito-Cotto.

Don't know if Chavez would even have power at this zombie weight.

Chavez is goin to be so much bigger than Nelo, I hope Nelo has his stamina on point Neither guy is special, but its up to Chavez to make it a fight, if hes actually trained for this fight, n it seems like he is

We thought Jacobs would be easy work for Golovkin, we thought Fury would be easy work for Wlad, we thought Bellew would be easy work for Haye, so anything can happen All of em either have or had 100x the work ethic and passion of Jr.

If Chavez comes healthy then this is a fight he could win. It's not really by a long shot(that he comes healthy), if you have guys like memo helpin ya, and if you know this is the chance to revive your ruined career. If Chavez can eat Canelas punches like cupcakes, then he can take the fight to him and pressure him non-stop. Mid section is obviously the concern though. Canela also doesn't have the footspeed of maravilla to escape. Overall, obviously Canelo is the better and far more technical fighter compare to Chavez jr, and has somehow proven himself against top competitions. But hopefully on this one, the physical advantages, the style and the hunger of chavez jr will win. Rooting for the underdog.

Im honestly rooting for him and hope he knocks canelo out. Ginger shamed all mexicans with his clear ducking of GGG.

Chavez had close fights with Vera and Rubio. Canelo is going to end his career.

There is so much at stake in this fight for both guys. This fight is about pride and bragging rights, neither will go away easy. I'm really liking Jr, always have. Fuk canelo

It won't be "easy" because Junior can take a punch but Canelo is in no danger of losing.

We thought Jacobs would be easy work for Golovkin, we thought Fury would be easy work for Wlad, we thought Bellew would be easy work for Haye, so anything can happen And here I am predicting all these upsets. Talk for yourself. The only one i didn't bet in was the GGG fight, because I thought even if Jacobs wins it in a close fight, he's not markatable enough for them to give it to him.

He's definitely better than Canelo last 2 opponent. Chavez seems to be better preparing for this fight than during the Martinez fight.

Amazing abs and pecks. Feel sorry for Canelo.

The sheer size will make it interesting. He's also going to be Memo powered which, as we know, makes quite a difference.
