    That is exactly what I am worried about. He looked incredibly sluggish against Vera. However, I do not believe he was in shape. The Chavez that fought Lee and even Martinez, with the willingless to throw of course, I believe would be a threat to Ward. Chavez packs a heavy punch and he doesn't seem to recognize that his pressure is one of his best assets. He needs to get shape and mind right and I like his chances.

      and when Chavez gets his ass kicked in you'll complain about him being weight drained right?

        Chavez is nothing more than a glorified Librado Andrade, except Andrade has proven he could take the punches of a SMW. He has 0 chance against Ward, it'd even be one of the easiest fights of his career.

            Chavez/Ward is not happening, and no one is going to want to see Hopkins vs Ward the cure for insomnia.

            Ward needs to swallow his pride and admit that the best money fight for him right now is a Froch fight in the UK.

                But you have to question; is Chavez Jr. still capable of making big purses?
                Many people were angry with him over the suspension after the Martinez fight, and it showed during the Vera fight. There weren't as many people in seats for that fight as he normally has. He then alienated those fans even more when he showed up unprepared to fight Vera. People are quickly getting tired of his antics (myself included) and I don't think he will ever generated the same amount.
                Unless he fights Canelo of course.

                    No one will buy this garbage mismatch. Sorry ward you're not PPV you don't have enough fans to fill an arena in your own back yard.

                    It's funny though how ward makes every effort to say how Chavez can fight but wt every turn likes to downplay the achievements of triple g.

                    I've got ward in both fights if they happen though.
