Comments Thread For: Julio Cesar Chavez Jr.’s 30-Day Weight, Comes in at 176

[mathed]

As usual, chavez jr is gonna be a skeleton walking out to the scales. One of the big reasons why i think martinez will wear him down and take him out late. Its gonna be hell on his body trying to keep up with martinez, thats if martinez is smart about it.

Chavez is going to catch a beat down for sure.

Didn't he state as well as his manager that he is too small to fight at super middle when clearly he can make that and then some. Yet called out guys smaller than him.

Brah, Sergio is 5 foot 10.......already moved up 2 weight divisions and he has a high muscle content....muscle weighs more than fat does. He only has to lose 7 pounds to be where he needs to be to make weight.

Chavez normally weighs 190 when not training for a fight. He weighed in at 176 after training all day and sweating off water weight just to weigh 176. If you weighed him dry yesterday, he would have weighed 183 or 184 pounds. Sergio didn't even have to sweat at all before he weighed in, that's the difference.

Lets call you Mr. know it all, professor assumptions. You have no idea and no evidence to back up what you just said. STFU please do us all a favor.

From this point on he must lose a half pound a day... Remarkable"

[TBear]

I wonder whats the odds on fighters making weight on this one?

[THE REED]

Martiz DOES in fact seem like the hungrier and the more talented of the two... Only difference is Martinez is much older and JCC jr is much bigger.... Which makes this a GREAT fight, I hope no injuries, pullouts, or cancellations happen.

15 pounds is alot to loose if your working on a 30 day notice unless he's the type of guy who can dry out and not be weakened as he rehydrates! I think this will be his last 160 bout or he needs to gain some discipline in between bouts! To be concerened about weight is an awfull way to bring a fighter along and it adds a negative to what should be a positive training camp. Some fighters are raised with dealing with weight looses and they have it under control but when your Jr.s size and maturation is taking place hydration doesn't need to go up and down.

The key here is when the weighin is? If its the morning before the bout then he has 32 to 36 hours to replenish fluids and foods. He could easily move from 160lbs to 175 but I wouldn't go higher than the weight he trained at. If he gets down to 172 these coming 2 weeks then he needs to replenish back to that. Plenty of fighters and trainers make the mistake of adding to much weight and then you get the same effect as over training. I would hope his fathers knowledge and experience has the scales under control. Ray
