Comments Thread For: Julio Cesar Chavez Jr: I'll Try To Weigh 168-Pounds

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Enigmatic ex-middleweight champion Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. flippantly indicated on a conference call Tuesday that he’ll try to get down to the contracted weight limit of 168 pounds for his super middleweight fight Saturday night against Bryan Vera.

Mexico’s Chavez, who hasn’t fought since losing to Sergio Martinez in a middleweight title fight last Sept. 15 in Las Vegas, added that he weighed 173 pounds Tuesday. Persistent speculation on social media sites Tuesday suggested Chavez would try to change the contract weight to 173 pounds, but he said that he wants to weigh 168 pounds before a California State Athletic Commission weigh-in Friday.

Chavez jr. is a disgrace to Boxing

Chavez is a disgrace to boxing. Wan to lose weight then take a nice glass of cloudy brown Mexican tap water and drink it and presto 10 lbs gone in a day.

[SnakeVen0m]

Well that's nice of JR, it's ok if you don't, we already know you'll have it your way anyway.

Fucking disgrace.

This ****ing MOFO pisses me off. Then they will give him a weak Champion in Bika to win the belt and they will run from Ward like they did to Martinez until the corrupt WBC orders the damn fight. I like Jr's fighting style and I believe that he can be good if he wants,but damn he does not have any discipline or commitment.
