Comments Thread For: Chavez Jr-Macklin in Talks - Weight is The Issue

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

There are ongoing talks to make a fight between Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. (48-2-1, 32KOs) and Matthew Macklin.

According to Macklin's promoter Eddie Hearn of Matchroom Sport, the fight is being presented to take place on a summer date in Las Vegas. Chavez was back in action last month and saw Andrzej Fonfara stun him with a ninth round stoppage.

The fight with Fonfara took place at light heavyweight, and Chavez wants his return to take place at the super middleweight limit of 168-pounds.

of course weight is an issue.Mack can still make 160 while Chavez's fat ass is expecting a MW to make 168-175.

Pathetic, Chaves has no shame, back to bullying undersized and overmatched middleweights huh. At least he will find out how much respect he has lost with what he pulled with Fonfora.

Macklin smacks that fat boy around regardless of weight.

Jr. doing his best to alienate fans.

MAn, who does this clown think he is? He seems to have the impression that he is some star who can demand that people meet him at all these weights that he feels comfortable at. Nah, chumpez, if you want to fight a 160 pound fighter, then fight at 160. Otherwise, go on a damn diet, after all you are supposed to be an athlete right?
