Cotto vs Chavez Jr. on Dec. 6 ?

[racer59]

All the drawbacks included, you have to admit that this is a huge opportunity for Jr. to regain a place in the front scene of the sport... I think he's aware of this...

Monetary reasons are the only way I can see him miraculously making 160, but he will be so debilitated by making wight, it wont be a competitive fight. Thats all Im trying to say.

[IMDAZED]

With the difference that Oscar made weight -- which Jr. would not be able to...

Chavez probably could but then he'd be like Oscar. Actually Oscar's was one of the worst cases in recent times. Think he was underweight for about a month. ******* is a helluva drug.

Chavez Sr. and Jr. where on ESPN "A Los Golpes" and they both talked about that they were willing to go down to 160 for Cotto. Sr. said that they were in talks with Cotto and his team regarding a possible match up. This was about 2 weeks ago.

... Meanwhile, they ranked Jr. #6 at the MW and posted the fight on Boxrec for Dec. 6...

It happens I rewatched the fight last Saturday -- before GGG vs Geale...
Oscar looked like a zombie.

Poor Jr. can't even make 168 easily -- but the money involved should help him find some motivation. If he holds any, because I don't see him enjoying the sport anymore...

Cotto stilll loses to Chavez even at 160, the size will be too much to overcome.

[Dr Rumack]

Even with all the drugs they can give him, there's no way Jr can fight at 160 again.

[New England]

JR is going to be sh#tting liquid for six weeks to make 160 again.


sorry if anybody was eating

\fight at 160? no way. he can probably ahrdly stand when he's 160 lbs. make 160 for the weigh in, doe?

don't underestimate the power of diuretics in the proper dosage and time frame!


let this young CW beat up a welterweight in peace.

[Divine Hammer]

i highly doubt chavez jr can make 160. i highly extremely doubt this.

he looked like a skeleton and super drained against vera and that was at super middleweight.
