Chaves Jr Is A Dangerous Fight For Canelo

[The Problem Child]

If this fight gets made, Im taking the trip to go watch it live. This might spoil the plans for Canela-Golovkin. Chavez Jr has a real shot to turn his entire legacy around in one night, he has a real chance of pulling it off.

The last time Chavez weighed below 168 was 2012. Chavez will be nothing more than a punching bag.

this could be a good fight for however long it lasts...both guys styles mesh well.

Fighting Chaves Jr at 165 is a very dangerous fight, Canelo could be put to sleep, he's moving up 11 pounds doing something fighters don't usually go up 2 weight divisions and take risk but Canelo is doing it, at middleweight Canelo would be the favorite but anywhere between 164-168 it's 50/50

Alvarez isn't "going up" 11 pounds; he's simply not going to need to really cut any weight.

Head to camp, put in a hard 10-12 weeks, check the weight on the week of the fight, and cut whatever few pounds that are left to cut.

How Chavez Jr gets down to 165lbs is going to be key; if he's any type of fight fit, he'll likely have a 15lb weight advantage anyway.

That fight packs in Dallas Cowboys Stadium probably 60-80K easily that is a HUGE FIGHT between two well known Mexican Fighters also has many facinating Back Story to it. Chavez Sr vs Oscar De La Hoya, Chavez Jr said years ago beating Canelo would be like Avenging his father vs Oscar so the build would be GREAT and I think the PPV Buys would be Solid


Make It Happen! Much better than fighting Margarito and some of the other rumored names! If he does move up to 164-165 then GGG will have to be NEXT at 160 would think!
