Rarely is Chavez Jr. comfortable enough to throw, the same weaknesses stand out; he needs alot of time and room to operate.Comment

Martinez = Super high risk, low pay
Rubio = High risk, very low pay
Canelo = High risk, high pay and Jr. is the bigger man.
It's a no brainer, now let's see if Jr. will agree too, and make the catchweight.Comment

I just watched the fight and thought Chavez Jr. looked pretty sharp. His punches had power and snap, he boxed well at times (not the whole fight though) and he showed that he could take a good punch...
Observation about the gloves: Did anyone else notice that Manfredo's Everlast gloves looked bigger and bulkier than Chavez' Grants? The Grants looked like 8-10oz while the Everlasts looked like they might be 12oz. Did Manfredo opt to use a bigger glove? It just kinda stood out to me, not that it's a big deal...Comment

The "kid" is actually older than Canelo and is not even on the same level. The kid, as you refer to him is where he is today because of his name not his work.Comment

he is still young....yes, i agree junior is piggy backing on his father's name but canelo is piggybacking on NOTHING...dont realy know why that kid is so famous, he's stiff, defense sucks, and when he fought gomez , he looked lost at times when gomez boxed.....Comment
