This is how I reacted when I heard of the news of it being a done Deal.

Even though people claim Chavez is a bum, Chavez losing will hurt... Though I'm expecting Chavez to knock him out... This is how I reacted when I heard of the news of it being a done deal.

I think we should wait to see how he looks in his next fight bc this has been the best training camp he has ever had and took it serious. In the training vids he looked better than ever when he was hitting the mitts with roach. He just needs to do alot of sit ups when he fights cotto. War chavez

I think 160 will be too much for Cotto, still I give him a good chance of winning because Chavez Jr is not very good and hasn't been tested yet, he has fighted a lot of bad boxers during his entire career, and even with 40+ fights he has actually no experience at all.

Ya I always thought he looked lethargic but lately he looked very strong.

Canelo is a much better boxer than Chavez Jr. The Chavez Jr fight is just Arum giving Cotto a belt in 4 weight classes. That's right, giving. Just like he gave Pacquiao that belt in "9" weight classes against Margarito. This will be another blow out, Cotto by TKO. He's gonna break the poor kid down and knock him out. Chavez Jr is weak, he's featherfisted, don't let the record fool you, he's untested.

I don't understand though, why Cotto now? Chavez Jr is really young, with no amateur background, his pro career so far is his amateur career. I see this being his first real pro fight. How are you gonna give a kid like this a guy like Cotto, when the toughest fighter he's fought before this was John Duddy?
