    Yeah. This is what I was thinking and it'll be good if this is the case. No special treatment for either fighter. I think the fight is great as long as it's fair. I do give Chavez a tiny shot, if Martinez slips up and makes mistakes. I don't think Chavez can beat Martinez if Martinez is 100%.

      Thats how it should b fair 4 both fighters go by the rules n let the better man win. Someone with Chavez size advantage is always gonna have a chance, but I agree I think Martinez will take it

          It's all about the contract. If the fighters contract for a 5X5 ring, it'll be a 5X5 ring.

            Isn't ring size stipulated when they are draqwing up the contracts? Dibella isn't goiing to let his guy fight in a pack-n-play and Arum wouldmt let Jr fight in a football field. If the ring is somehow smaller in dimension I'm sure Martinez would know and he would be able to procure a ring of that size with his connections certainly.

                Don't know for certain, but my guess would be that $$$ talks.

What if Martinez limited the amount of weight Chavez can put back on after the weigh-in? I could go on and on. You dumb little biyatches would be crying and you know it.

                  Ring size matters, period. There's zero reason to respect a fighter if, in order to beat another fighter, he has to change the standard ring size. GTFO. I own you dumb b1tches for real.
                  Somebody's asking to be banned, lol.

                    It would be nice if the fight was in a 10ft ring with barbed wire as the ropes.
