Comments Thread For: Chavez-Vera Rematch Being Pushed To February 2014

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Bryan Vera (23-7) will have to wait until next February to get a chance at avenging last month's decision loss to Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. (47-1-1, 32Kos). The fight was going to happen on a date in December, but Top Rank's CEO Bob Arum said he met with HBO and it was determined that Chavez-Vera II would get pushed to next year.

Chavez plans to continue his career at super middleweight. He failed to make the 168 limit for the match with Vera, which led to the contract weight being increased to 173-pounds. The fight ended in a controversial ten round unanimous decision in favor of Chavez. Most observers felt Vera had done enough to win. [Click Here To Read More]

I'd like to see two name boxers have their management tell HBO and Showtime that they'll be fighting at such and such a location... Get on board or miss the train
