WAR RUBIO! Should be a fun scrap

[rey guey]

Chavez is the biggest coward in the game and Rubio has it right. Arum will do everything to protect his cowardly cash cow.

I just hope Rubio doesn't quite like he didn't against Pavlik and makes it a fight but I doubt it or that coward Chavez would have never accepted a fight against him.

I'll be rooting for Rubio, I think he's by far the greatest challenge Jr has faced and I believe he has a good opportunity of getting the KO.

This should be a very fun fight. Both fighters seem to have solid punching power and solid chins. Neither backdown very much and both very much so want to win (Rubio to finalize his career by achieving a world title and Chavez Jr. to prove to everybody that he's more than simply the son of a legend). Since I don't think Chavez Jr. is as bad ass people portray him to be, I see a very competitive fight.

What Rubio meant to say was "Im going to knockout Jr for Malius"

Chavez Jr should have fought Martinez,this guy is mediocre at best-Chavez is alrigb he desn't need tobe protected this much--canelo is the better Mexican champion.

Rubio is going to bust Chavez up pretty nice

[mushahadeen]

The closest Rubio will get to hitting JCC JR is when they touch gloves. Other than that, Rubio won't be able to lay a glove on JR. JR is a defensive wizard. He is one of the best, if not THE best defensive boxers of all time so if Rubio is relying on hitting JR to win, he is going to have a long night.
