Comments Thread For: Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. Grabs Gold, Decisions Zbik

[theplayerpimp]

And a whole bunch of people are just dismissing that fact. Zbik outlanded him convincingly in 9 out of the 12 rounds and it's written all over Chavez's face. Although Chavez was effective with his brutal body shots, he got still hit consistently. I don't understand how anyone can clearly have Chavez winning the fight. To be fair, I had it 114-114, seeing as Chavez landed effective punches but Zbik had the volume. I wouldn't mind seeing them fight again tbh, as it was more entertaining than I thought it would be.

Bc in most rounds where chavez won he landed some heavy shots and hurt him in many rounds.. The last 3 or 4 zbik had nothing and jr was putting a hurting him.

I won't disagree. But it seems like for Zbik to win, he would've had to either KO Chavez or put on a masterful boxing performance ala Mayweather. He doesn't have KO power nor amazing boxing skills, Chavez out-weighed him, and he was fighting in the U.S. Almost everything was in Chavez's favor, and STILL he couldn't win convincingly, even with all the body damage he did. Like someone else said, Chavez had the style the judges preferred.

who gives a fu** who's punches were more effective these are the stats and it's obvious that zbik won,calzaghes punches had no effect on hopkins either but he still one because that's how boxing is scored.

Chavez threw a total of 796 punches, connecting with 256 (32%)
Zbik threw a total of 834 punches, connecting with 391 (47%)
Chavez threw a total of 724 power punches, connecting with 242 (33%)
Zbik threw a total of 623 power punches, connecting with 335 (54%)

The people that score professional fights.

Zbik looked pretty good. People just want to call him a bum but he looked great in the beggining he surprised me but jr broke him down with the body attack. It was no way a robbery like a lot of people are *****ing and moaning in here. A close fight yes.

Chavez Jr still a bum , if Zbik had even the slightest power , the fight would be over in round 3 , Chavez landed crazy bombs to the body and still couldnt drop him , no way in hell they let him fight Martinez , Sergio will crush him

These are the comments that just drive me nuts.
Yes if Zbik had power the fight would have been over.
If Ricky Hatton had some head movement then maybe Pacquiao wouldn't have KO'd him in the 2nd round. If Paul Williams had just ducked he wouldn't have gotten KO'd by Martinez. If Cotto hit harder than Pacquiao he could have beaten him. etc. etc. etc.

People always have an excuse. Just give credit where credit is due.

Chavez Jr. is a joke!!!!!!

[budfr]

What a robbery!!!!!!!

ZBIk landed way more punches.
No matter what anyone thinks you know that it was some bull****.

Chavez won fare and square. He landede more shots, but they were body shots so they are not as flashy as the head shots. Zbik was almost Koed at the end.

People should stop throwing compubox numbers areound like they means anything.

I had Chavez jr. winning 115-113 in a close fight,could see a draw or even a 115-113 for Zbik.The score were fine.

Very entertaining fight,that being said neither guy could beat or even be competitive with Martinez.

The fight is at Staples Center in LA and not in Mexico. Get your facts right before you comment dude.

Well, in a way Los Angeles is Mexico. I know itīs part of the US but Mexican culture and people are very heavy in californis, specially L.A.
