Comments Thread For: Chavez Sr: Julio Jr. Will Remain at 160, Not Move Up

[flint]

Don't hate the player, hate the game.
Weighing in 35 hours before a fight is ridiculous.

i don't hate the game nor the player. i sissy move is a sissy move. period.

If he does stay at 160, I'd rather not see a rematch. I'd rather see him fight Macklin or Murray next, than maybe Geale or something.

No I rather see GGG beat the fk out of this bum.

One more thing:
Diuretics are a hell of a drug.

The young boxer tested positive for marijuana.

There's a lot of hate on this forum. I'm a big Martinez fan and I want to see a rematch. I think Jr has a wayyy better chance of beating Martinez in a rematch than he did in their first fight.

Let me guess cause he will be more aggressive? Which will leave him more opened and give Martinez more chances to target the eye all night. Now don't forget Martinez had a broken hand and was still backing up Jr. Imagine what a healthy hand will do.

Keep on hurting your brain, that way you never learn how to box Julio.

Why are they frighten of going to 168? He is doing himself more long term harm by squeezing himself into his 160 frame then ballooning to 180ish on fight night, He basically spends his whole camp trying to loose weight and dehydrate himself enough to make 160, He needs to move up and he would see the benefits in the way he fights, Cotto too was struggling to make 140 for too long when they should have moved him up and look how better he became when he moved up to 147?

[nycsmooth]

can't, in any way c Jr being compedtitve vs Froch or Ward, etc...he'll stay @ '60, depending on the length of suspension, fight a few times in MX? w/their docotored balanced beam scales vs no1 significant & hopes sergio gives him a rematchthat he's not required 2 give... ...Sergio should go 2 '54 where his punch has more efffect....

Martinez doesn't want a rematch, he knows a focused and non high jr will tko him.

I doubt dat happens, Maravilla buries da kid.

[Uncle Rodge]

You're full of shit Chavez and you know it.

NEWS FLASH: Your son's a bum.

Thanks for comming.

[ddangerous]

Jr. really should move up. He kills himself to make weight. He's been known to use diuretics in the past. Just move up, dude. I don't even want to see Martinez rematch him at this point. Not the way he acted post-fight. If I'm Martinez, I move on for bigger money fights with Cotto or Floyd at a catchweight.

I agree with you on the weight^. Jr's main advantage has always been his ability to go down 30+ lbs to 160!. Besides, I have tons of respect for boxers that take the boxing craft seriously and train like they want it. Chavez Jr. is not hungry enough to want it. He has been a part of PPV's(latin fury) for years, so the kid was already ahead in terms of $$$ for basically fightning nobody's. I dont think Chavez will ever want it that bad IMHO..
