Comments Thread For: Merchant: Chavez-Margarito is Cruelty To Human Animals

[right_hand_lead]

Garbage fight for so many reasons. Clearly just a money-maker, plain and simple.

What's the world come to when a psuedo-JMW that's past it is put up against a huge MW "champion"?

Yes, there would be fireworks, but even Chavez is a better boxer and puncher than Margarito and is wayyy bigger.

Even at 160 Marg beats Jr. The only problem is Margarito's eye won't hold up long enough.

I truly dislike Margo as a human being, but I think he still has it in him unlike most do. Not only does he give Jr. problems he also whoops on Canelo, Kirkland, and Angulo @ 154.

I'm not gonna agree or disagree with this but don't you think he should make those fights before he gets another title shot? At least to prove he is deserving after this string of losses.

Margo doesn't deserve another title shot, but I wouldn't mind seeing Chavez Jr. beat his cheating ass. Chavez Jr. is just under 5'11" and at 181, he could turn out to be a pretty good lightheavy. He'll have 30 lbs on Margo and beat him into retirement.

If Chavez was my fighter, he'd move up to 168 and bring a whole new following top that weight class. Face it, nobody is any good there and Chavez would dominate.

He should not fight Sergio, but instead, move up in weight.

Hell no 168 he should stay as far away from 168 as possible he would get ****d by almost everyone there.

Fudge it, let JCC beat the snot out of Marg. But not before fighting Martinez....

[Kagami Taiga]

some of u actually think margarito can win this fight? seriously...

[GRUSTLER]

Margarito ain't beating Chavez Jr at 160. As bum juice as Chavez Jr is. Margarito doesn't have any skill to be a threat to someone as big as Jr. On top of that. He may even have a lil more technical fight game then Margarito. Margarito moved up against Santos and couldn't pull it off because his style is to come forward and pressure. Against bigger guys, he will never be effective and that's why he spent the majority of his career at 147 with lil'r fighters.

[GRUSTLER]

Fact of the matter is that sooner or later Arum is going to run out of soft touch tomato cans to put in the ring against Chavez Jr. I have a feeling that Chavez is going to get KO'd by an opponent that we will least expect him to get KO'd by. I knew Rubio would not be the one to do it because he just was talking too much crap. Rubio has never been good enough to make me confident enough that he could win anything of significance. He reminds me of Alfonso Gomez.

[King Ju-Ju]

Margarito moving up to to 160 to fight a guy who will weigh 180 on the night of the fight.

Chavez is a bigger, faster version of Marg. Marg is slow as all hell and has no technique. He does have unreal stamina and endurance though we have to give him that. Hell, Chavez might even be more skilled than Marg. Marg is more ferocious though...and Most likely has more heart. Cheater or not, we do have to recognize Marg as an absolute warrior who has fought and sought the best always and has given everybody a fight (Mosley fight might be aomething of an exception..he was crushed).
