Comments Thread For: Arum Sees Potential in Chavez Jr. Despite The Fiascos

[QballLobo]

The only reason he got to Martinez in that last round was because he was hurt. Otherwise the ass whipping he was putting on Jr. would have continued and Martinez may have stopped him. This kid is nothing special. If his last name was Gomez he would be fighting on undercards instead of being protected. This is far from the first time he hasn't made weight.

If Jr wasn't the son of a famous boxer he wouldn't weigh in almost 48hrs before his fight. It would be the morning of his bout and he would fight at light heavy weight or cruiser weight. He would have no promoter and be lucky to have 15 wins on his record. Jr is an ingrate

It's one thing when both parties agree on a catchweight but when you change the agreed upon weight because one party can't make the weight, well that's just bs. I doubt anyone would be so forgiving if Vera was the one coming in overweight. The only potential Chavez Jr has is his name. Pretty soon, that won't be enough.

Alot of you are sounding like some females s.t.f.u. apart from the greats everyone gains 2 weight classes before a fight from nonito to canelo

The Top Rank zombies are the only ones who believe this crap, Kovalev vs Chavez Jr, I'll buy that.

You sound like a clueless female, he's not gaining two weight classes he weighed in two weight classes above, Canelo didn't weigh in at 166, he gained it.

potential in making more money off of him.
He's getting gift wrapped and sent to Ward

[GoldenGloveLove]

If he were in a weak division and didn't have trouble making weight maybe. But none of the three or four divisions (lol) he could be in will he not have his ass beat by somebody.

You don't even know what you just said!! Canelo and Donaire gain weight and train back down to their divisional weight, Chavez is gaining weight and coming in at the higher weight, duh.

[Bushidō]

I see potential as well. But he really need to be dedicated to training. Fighting seems to be the easy part for Chavez...its just the damn training that he can't do.
