    JCC Jr. should fight someone his OWN size

    I would really like to see someone that can physically compete with him so it is easier to guage Chavez's development and power. Him fighting midgets doesnt show us much. I understand he is trying to develop, but from a fan's point of view...

      It's kind of like 30 amateur/pro fights for him. It is just a learning experience. He might hit 40 before he actually fights someone his own size.

        Are you saying just because Sr. "padded his record" Jr. will be as great as SR?

        Arum is doing with Jr. what he did with Cotto and Pavlik, taking them on the slow road to the top.

          not actually his own size but a top level guy, btw what weight is he fighting at?

            This certainly makes sense, but I'd rather see Chavez fight bums his own size than solid fighters that cant win just because of their size.

            JCC paid his dues early with 2 fights against Roger Mayweather, something these clowns dont seem to realize.

                  Yeah, but he better be ready to fight the best at his weight and practice throwing straight punches and not down.

                    I know he's learning on the fly since he didn't have any amatuer experience, but fighting a guy on a PPV card that got KO'ed by Michael Trabant isn't exactly stepping even a little in class.
