Comments Thread For: Chavez Jr. Places Target on Sergio Martinez's WBC Title

[AFighter4U]

i feel like a lot of you didnt read this part of the article...
"With the way the title situation is playing out, Chavez might fight for the WBC title without having to face Martinez.
The sanctioning body is strongly considering making Martinez the "Champion Emeritus" at middleweight, which in turn would vacate the "regular" WBC title and create a situation where Chavez as the silver champion would face unbeaten interim-champion Sebastian Zbik for the vacant belt. Discussions are already taking place to match Chavez and Zbik."

and look at the title. he targets martinez' wbc title...not an actual fight with martinez, just the belt that will be vacated when he's elevated to "champion emeritus".

oh. .

These fans r idiots......

Don't listen to these so called fans over here. They thnk they know boxing, but they don't. They jump on band wagons just 'cause. CHAVEZ Jr. is good fighter. He has all the tools to be a champion one day. That day is almost upon us. MARTINEZ is a good fighter, but that's where it ends. He has flaws as well and is on the verge of defeat if he keeps fighting at this level. CHAVEZ Jr. can beat anybody with ROACH in his corner. I've been watching him train, he's in DOG shape. I'm tired of the disrepect from these guys for no reason. They don't give these fighters a chance before stating who would beat who.

shut up. Chavez stands no chance against martinez and you know it. Chavez knows it too. The title says everything. Chavez is after the belt not martinez. Chavez and roach will do whatever it takes to get that belt w/o having to face sergio.

I stopped caring about belts and titles a long time ago. There can only be one champion in each division, not interim, not regular, not supper...

Martinez by knock out

Martinez wins this fight, same way as paul williams. He's going wing a haymaker from left field and completely knock him out. Martinez knows he has devastating one shot power now, pressure fighters with not great defense will get knocked out by him every time now.

IF the belt is vacated and IF Chavez were to win it against zbik hopefully they don't in turn have someone in top rank stable fight at a BS catchweight of 155.fight at MAX 160 limit for it.

I thought this was going to be interesting, but unlike most people I read the whole thing, He isn't fighting Martinez /thread

[PRBOXINGCOTTO]

chavez will wait for it to be vacated or the wbc will strip the belt to give it to the bum chavez
