as much as I hate Freddy Roach, he is a smart man! he knows Chavez Jr. is in the right path to becoming a World Champion soon! After Pacquiao retires its Chavez Jr. full time for Freddy Roach! he knows the kid is tall, has a great chin, packs a nice punch, and obviously has a big fan base in Mexico and in the U.S. and all he needs is a little bit of speed, technique and lateral movement! I know most of you think he fights bums but compared to what Berto faces and the old men Alvarez knocks out, he is on the right track! atleast he wasn't rocked by Miguel Cotto's brother a guy who is not even a 147 lbs fighter!

CHAVEZ JR. is the biggest joke in the game!!!
He is a joke not because he is a bum of course but because he call out great boxers from years and he fights GIRLS......DISGUSTING(after this fight he'll call out SERGIO MARTINEZ and then he'll fight YORI BOY CAMPAS,PLEASE)!!!
ONLY IN MEXICO!!!!

I thought Jr. was on his way on the fast track after the duddy win. I guess its back to fighting cans.

Lyell beat Duddy a couple of years ago..

I get that he's been fighting cans. He's 24 and people already want him with the lions early. You guys remember how Vargas had a short pro career? He's ready when Roach tells him he's ready.
