Comments Thread For: Chavez Jr. Wants To Return To Freddie Roach, Says Sr.

[Eastcoast]

God, Roach could have Chavez Jr & Broner in his gym at the same time. Frankie Gomez will look like a spartan gladiator now.

Does Freddie even have time for him?

In fairness what extra time is Freddie gonna need to set aside for Chavez Jr., like 45mins a month maybe?

With Chavez Jr's dedication to the sport I think he could train outta his garbage & do about the same. Just hire some 50ish mom-like character to work his corner & just tell him "you are my special boy" & things like that between rounds as she's giving him water.

Jr doesn't know if he's coming r going & the top 5 of this division all will beat him...better he fights 8 rounders in MX...

Chavez is ass. I already got tired of broner losing. But I don't think I can get enough of Chavez getting his ass kicked by guys his size (probably a little bit smaller than him too)

[BrometheusBob.]

That's the impression I got. Freddy was so disappointed with the guy and was eager to detach his name from Chavez Jr.
Chavez needs to see Kirkland's old trainer. Get his ass slapped around.

Actually, that's probably not a bad idea.

I don't know if Stoolio Chavez has it in him for that, but it's the best he can get most likely.

I think he should go with Teddy Atlas.

Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. (49-2-1, 32KOs) will have the best year of his career in 2016, according to his father - the legendary Julio Cesar Chavez Sr.

According to Sr., Julio wants to return to the training arms of Freddie Roach, who previously trained the Mexican star for several years.

After Chavez Jr. parted with longtime promoter Top Rank earlier this year, he broke away from Roach and hired Joe Goossen. That relationship lasted one fight and then he hired Robert Garcia.

Was that a dig at Garcia?????????????

Don't know how Roach divides his time among his fighters. Pacman will be fighting presumably at around the same date as Chavez, and Roach usually spends most of his time with his star fighters, Cotto, Pac... Roach lost Khan because he wasn't able to manage the time when he was with him. Just wondering why Sr can't just train his own son.

No doubt, really couldn't see him lasting two weeks.
