Comments Thread For: Marquez: Chavez Jr. Must First Defeat The Weight, Then Canelo

[Shadoww702]

Chavez Jr. Has almost 4 MONTHS to get in shape and eat right. His CAREER is on the line! He made 168 just last month off of only 4-5 weeks of training. NOT MONTHS like now...

Everytime Khan tells that story Canelo keeps gaining weight and he keeps getting smaller and smaller??? Last I heard Khan tell it Canelo weighed 215 lbs!!! You probably believe that one also... Damn casual fans are dumb as ***!!!

- projecting himself

Go back to earlier hbo
Fights were they showed weigh in weight and what canella hydrated up to fight night yes he reached 175 and over check they stop doing it now because real fans caught on he was fighting jm at L H fraud

I'm hoping we get alot of interviews and updates during this camp. My guess is that if we pay attention, we'll be able to see how his struggle with the scales is going. If the weight is not shedding off like his team wants, of course they will spin it and say everything is golden, but we should be able to see through the BS. A couple weeks till fight night and chavez will know if he's getting trounced or not...Good post.

For the last time all the struggle is on junior he hardly makes 168 gets caught with water pills never trains hard so if he squeezes down to 164.5 he will be drained.

For the last time Canella hydrates to 175 pounds so fighting at 164.5 he will be at his weight and in even better shape he got over big time he pretends he is a jm he is a sm fight night a light heavy do you not see the scale when hbo used to show the weights fight night they stopped and do you not see him dwarf his opponents he is so thick chest back and he used to fight welters before khan check blown up welters so he is pretending it's a struggle when you will see he will be in best shape ever

Most definitely. He will have so much work to do to make weight that he will have zero time to work on his sharpness and technique. He is nowhere near good enough to get away with that.

Look at what a joke his preparation for the Sergio fight was. And that was back when he was 'serious' about boxing. Now that he's basically retired I can't even imagine how bad it will be.

No Zanfer. Haymon Boxing I assume.

Golden boy is promoting the fight not haymon. Just like when canelo fought khan who is also signed with haymon. All the promotions were done by golden boy and the promoters haymon used in previous khan fights had nothing to do with it.

If you make weight the day of the weigh in, and there is no rehydration clause in the contract, you can weigh whatever you want on fight night! I.diot

EXACTLY!!! Well know soon enough but if this fight doesn't motive him nothing will be his career is DONE then!! He has a lot on his shoulders... I'm sure his dad who HATES Oscar and Canelo will be like a drill sergeant to him as his reputation is on the line as well
