Comments Thread For: Rubio: Facing Martinez, Ten Times Harder Than Chavez Jr!

[rey guey]

Rubio is a journeyman, a solid B level guy.

Chavez isn't that good. he's got Freddie Roach and the Chavez name but if he was just a Jon Doe without all that he'd be on the same level as a Matt Vanda.

I pretty sure Rubio will take a dive. Chapo Guzman probably paid him off or threatened him. I also think that's why the WBC changed its tune so quickly.

if Chavez wins by a mysterious KO, we will all know why.

Rubio can get it too. He will be schooled by Chavez. Chavez may not be elite, but he can get Rubio out of there...

Really? Then why not face him? Oh ya, that's right I remember now, BECAUSE HE IS TERRIFIED! And with good reason. Jr. would get KTFO by Martinez.

Easy work for JR.

Iron clad chin? Same Rubio that got destroyed in .32 seconds by Kofi Jantuah? He has a punchers chance but he's not beating Chavez.

Jr's chin isn't all that great either. He was hurt by Zbik, and he isn't much of a puncher at all. Jr hasn't fought anyone really, Rubio is probably the best and most experienced fighter Jr has faced. It should be a good fight.

On paper he's the most experienced but I don't see Rubio beating Jr. Chavez was never hurt in the Zbik fight however Zbik did land a couple of flush shots on him which got Jr more frustrated than hurt. Plus Zbik is a much better boxer than Rubio.

"Martinez 10 times harder than Chavez"? I think Rubio is crazy by saying this comment. Martinez might be better than JR but ten times? Which A class fighter has Martinez impressed on, maybe only Williams who he knocked out with one lucky punch. Name me some other A class fighter Martinez has bitten......

Which a class fighter has jr fought?

[brains4boxing]

worse champ ever

i cant think of a champ worser then chavez jr. who never really won da belt...n will get knocked out by martinez

[chiguy91]

great fights for both guys, i hope rubio is able to pull it off. if it's still for the belt, i know rubio will be down to fight martinez afterwards, chavez has scumbag arum holding him back from making that fight.
