I think that other then Wladimir you can find at least a dozen other champions in all divisions that HAVE done what Chavez Jr did. What chavez jr is doing is not a uncommon practice.
The difference being, Wladimir ducked lewis and tyson because he was legitimately worried (as he should ) he will get ktfo.
Chavez JR is not fighting Sergio because honestly guys Sergio is a no name. That fight will be all Chavez bringing in the crowds.
If Sergio Martinez had the marketing appeal of say a older DE LA HOYA. Trust me Chavez Jr will go after this guy right now.
For chavez jr THIS IS A HIGH RISK FIGHT
See if Chavez JR wins;;; 'oh sergio is old man rivers'
if chavez jr loses 'oh ya sergio exposed this hype machine'
there literally is no reward
If Wlad had lost to Tyson or Lewis : good fight by young future star but not yet time'
Chavez is in a tougher situation in that he will be **** on regardless of what happens .
