This fight is a big question mark. Chaves has no experience, but he is from the same local boxing scene that has recently produced fighters like Matthysse, Maidana and Abregu. Anything can happen.
Going with Thurman. He impressed me against Zaveck (however you spell it) I always thought he would gas out because he was always looking for the KO but he actually has pretty good stamina along with a decent beard.
So if this is for the interim does this mean Broner/Maidana or Broner has to fight the winner?
In fact Chaves was Paulie's mandatory. This fight couldn't be agreed and Chaves accepted to step aside and fight Thurman, while Malignaggi got Broner. The Problem should now fight the winner of Thurman - Chaves, or Maidana, who is ranked 2.
It's rumored Chaves killed someone in the ring when he was a kid. Could just be BS. But that's what many Argentinians say. He's also undefeated. Chaves is another Agentine killer. Thurman may look like he should win, but these poor Argentines who grow up in sewers should not be underestimated.
