Comments Thread For: De La Hoya Rejects Canelo-Chavez Without 156 Weight

[ThePrince]

Chavez is a big kid, rehydrates 20 lbs to 180, probably walks around at 200 when not in training. Wouldn't be surprised to see him go up to 168 soon. 156 is too light, he probably can't make that. 158 seems fair.

158 is the only weight this fight can get made at.

the 2 bums.. smh neither one of them would beat Lara.. damn chavez why don't you fight the bum martinez.. at least he is in your weight class..

Super fight....

Boxing is dead.

[ChampBox@PR]

canelo is a big dude he should fight Chavez at 160. I mean, the kid will pretty soon be a MW anyways!!

As Manny would say, "157, IT'S SIMPLE!"

I thought 158 was generous I mean Chavez struggles with 160 so 156 would fully drain him.

De La Hoya made a sacrifice to go down to 147 after 10 years, for Pacquiao. Chavez Jr can do the same.

So you give full credit for Pac beating De La Hoya then

BTW I don't know what's all the talk about Canelo-Chavez Jr. What happened to Sulaiman saying it's Martinez next? Or is Chavez Jr thinking of vacating the WBC title so that Martinez and some one else[maybe Macklin] can get it? I just want to see what corrupted move will Sulaiman come up with now.
