Emanuel Steward doesn't believe Chavez has really been making 160

[DoktorSleepless]

In a boxingvoice radio interview, he said.

In this fight here, we will make sure that Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. is a middleweight. I have a lot of doubts about whether he has actually made 160 pounds.

Interesting...

Who isn't su****ious about the Chavez Jr camp at weigh ins and not being drug tested. It's a Top Rank fighter, what do people expect.

Chavez jr is a lifetime cheater....dude is a straight fraud.

I like the fact that he cheats to win.

I like the bad boy mafia image of boxing.

Everybody wants it to be clean and sportsman-like.

How boring.


I am sure stuff is shady but the bigger the fight the harder that is to pull off.

Just saying this puts a watchful eye on the weigh in, so everything will be legit.

I don't find it surprising that people think he's cheating. I find it surprising that Emanuel Steward, an HBO commentator, would go out and say Chavez might be cheating in public.

I remember seeing a video or documentary I can't extacly remember but they use too "cheat" the scales for DE LA HOYA when he fought at 130 135 and 140.

of course he hasnt and they should drug test his ass

Oh I am sure they did.

But a good trainer puts the crimp in any shady stuff going on.

All you do is put the word out in the media, and everyone is on watch.


It's a smart move by Steward.

on many many levels. how people think he is so good is beyond me...

considering how much he rehydrates, almost 30 lbs over night, it would not surprise me.
