Comments Thread For: Chavez Jr. Redeems Himself With Solid Win Over Vera

Props to Chavez Jr. for the win! I don't like him but win is a win.

GGG would be arrested for Homicide if he fights Chavez Jr.

True indeed. As exciting as this fight would be I would rather see Gennady fight another title holder at middleweight. And why put a non-title bout on PPV? I thought the idea was for Gennady to face Sergio pending the outcome of his bout with Cotto.

That's what I've been trying to tell some of the GGG fanboys on here. I like GGG but if he fights Jr at 168 I like Jr's chances. He's way bigger and hits just as hard as GGG imo, and lets face the facts even a 154 fighter in Rosado had busted GGG's face up...

Rosado didn't bust up GGG's face. Lets not get carried away here. He had a small bruise/mark under his eye. That red on Gennady was Rosado's blood.
That aside, GGG at a super middleweight fight against JCC is in JCC's favor, I think. He's a big guy

Chavez has always had the talent, what he's lacked is discipline. Last night was a step in the right direction as far as taking the fight seriously and having a good night.

Now if he can just be serious about getting a world class trainer in with him, and continue to take this seriously, he can regain the fan base he once had.
The fact he only put 7K butts in seats in San Antonio, show how huge his stardom has fallen. I mean Maidana and Argentinian put more seats than him in December.

I don't see Chavez accepting a GGG fight. I could see Chavez challenging Abraham for his strap at 68 though.

That kid is a mountain of a man for 160-168!

you guys have to give props to Sergio, & Vera to take shots from someone that outweighs them by 20-30lbs....
Now I don't want to hear from the GGG, & Cotto fans saying things about Martinez.
Chavez takes a toll on your hands, and body just hitting him, & being hit from him.

He will redeem himself in my eyes when he beats a good boxer of his same size and weight

Facts never lie...If Rosado did this what would the much bigger and harder puncher Jr do?

Why wouldn't Jr accept the GGG fight when he said last night he would like to fight GGG next? What you're saying doesn't make any sense. If anything GGG and Abel will want to stay away from Chavez, they know he's too big.

I'm not sure how a GGG fight would end, GGG is the much better fighter but Chavez is twice his size. What I do know is that both froch and groves would beat Chavez with ease.
