    Comments Thread For: Julio Cesar Chavez Jr.-Brian Vera: Pre-Fight Report Card

    The weight is over.

    Clearly, it’s over 168.

    It worked out as a great promotional tool in social media as many wondered if Chavez could even get down to the speculated weight of 173. He did with ounces to spare and plenty of new questions about how serious he takes his career.

    There were no pink undies, cereal, and stories of living room workouts this time (at least not yet). But, after a failed drug test put him on the shelf for most of the last year, it’s enough to wonder just how much this kid wants to do the real work of being a pro.

    What was originally scheduled to be a Super Middleweight fight between a Middleweight regular and a former Middle beltholder rising on the scale is now a Light Heavyweight fight. Will it be a good one?

    Im sure all this hate on chavez is what gives him his fire... You are fuelling the grimace that brings in the ring. I like him. And if he has been this good 'without caring' then imagine the day he does. He is legit. And im a martinez fan.

      according to boxrec brian vera has not faced any of the guys boxingscene listed as titlist faced. Hopkins, Johnson, Gonzales, woods? when I saw that I was like when did vera ever fight any of them? so I doubled checked on boxrec and none of those guys are up here. Whats up with that boxingscene?

              We evidently didn't hate enough if he couldn't make any of the weights except the one that was made up 2 days before the weigh in.
              Maybe if we hate hard enough, it'll burn some of that fat off

                Chavez Jr. probably wins, but damn I'm rooting for Vera.
