Comments Thread For: Chavez Jr. Gearing Up For Return, Not Afraid of Golovkin

I'm not a fan of either and they both would get smashed.

They will both tag each other and hurt the other at will, The only Question is how long until one of them folds up.

That is a pretty good assessment really.

Chavez Jr. outmuscles and bullies GGG with his size.

GGG doesn't have the quickness to avoid Jr. for 11 rounds like Martinez.

Jr. stops GGG in 9 rds.

The fight will be interesting simply because Junior isn't very good and GGG is still very untested.

People really underestimate the size factor. It's hard as hell to beat a guy outweighing you by 15-20 pounds who can punch.

You beat bigger guys with speed.

They get frustrated and make mistakes when you start using quick footwork to avoid big shots.

GGG doesn't have that.

He's no Rubio footwork wise for sure. Or Zbik. Zbik danced his was to a TKO stoppage loss to Sturm, via jab only.

Jr has the chin to stand up to GGG's power, I'd like Chavez in that fight.

I agree I honestly feel Chavez might win that fight, he has a beard on him....

Hope he gets his life under control, and ditches that rich brat attitude. As for GGG though, Jr may not be afraid of him, but as easy as he is to get hit, I don't see Jr going 12 in that one.

Exactly.

This is an easy prediction for me: GGG literally beats the **** out of Chavez, ala Margarito-Mosley. Slow-plodding guy with terrible defense versus a guy who can legitimately manhandle him and knock him the **** out.

Very true. He is strong as heck but he won't be beating up Ishida or Proksa in that fight.
