I'm seriously thinking about putting money on Chavez if he comes correct in shape.Comment

Are you that ****** or do you just act like it???? I'll provide links since you've NEVER seen the fight.no he wasn't taking a beating. did you even watch the fight? he landed one good shot that had lee hurt but still standing and the ref stopped it. lee was much more hurt against quillin and jackson and came back to win and draw in those fights. chavez doesn't have power. he couldn't stop rubio, zbik, brian vera, couldn't knock lee down. he also doesn't have boxing skills as fonfara easily outboxed him, lee outboxed him, barely beat rubio and zbik, several gift decisions like against vera. besides no power and no skills he's great.
also paulie malignaggi busted senchenko's eye so i guess paulie has power? is that what you are saying?Comment

Unless I miss my guess, Alvarez will be a heavy favorite making a bet on Chavez Jr. worthwhile. But like you say, it depends on if Jr. gets in serious shape, and, of course, he is a head case. I am trying to think of the last time a fighter with a 5" height disadvantage beat a world-class opponent --- maybe the Hagler/Hearns fight.Comment

fight has a better atmosphere and sets all kinds of attendance records at Cowboys Stadium easily exceeds over 80k in ticket sales. But I will be shocked if the fight doesn't end up in vegas instead. Because of Money. Casinos in Vegas have more money they usually outbid other venues for the rights then jack up the ticket prices to attract high rollers and celebs to come for the weekend and spend money in vegas. So even though their arena typically hold less then 20K seats they end up with live gates that pay the fighters and promoters, ect more money. Right now golden boy creating a bidding war and vegas will win the bid unless Jerry Jones comes out of nowhere with a crazy offer.Comment
