Comments Thread For: Roberto Duran Slams Chavez Sr: You Don't Know Boxing, Jr. Gets Drilled

duran slaughters chavez sr prime for prime.

Chávez was better than Duran, Duran lost in his prime and went to the floor, Chávez was better bóxer with better skills, Duran has size and more power, nothing more.

If Junior wins this fight it will be the biggest upset since Leon beat Ali.

Chavez has NO skills, NONE! If he could jab straight and bring it back high it will be a miracle.
He will get stopped by left hooks to the body!

WTF? an 8:1 upset would not be the biggest upset since Spinks/Ali.

and how the ***** did JCCjr win a world title, defend it 3 times(including his career best win over Andy Lee) and drop Sergio Martinez if he has "NO skills"?

i think that if jr is really motivated and not too weight-drained he can still fight like a top 10ish SM and that should be enough to be competitive. this is some ***** that as a Mexican fight fan I've been wanting to see for a long time now, so i want to b optimistic about this fight's potential.

Chavez jr is not an easy fighter to jump over weights to beat. If Canelo could not obliterate smaller size Cotto, what makes anyone believe he can beat a granite chin Chavez jr.? Jr will walk through his punches. Canelo hasn't fought anybody as big as Chavez's size before. At worse, Chavez may lose by a close split decision.

The GOAT/TBE has spoken and he is absolutely correct. Duran's politely saying that Chavez Sr. is dumb for putting his son in with Canelo, it's a ****** fight. Doesn't matter what weight Jr. comes in, Canelo could potentially kill Jr's overrated, bumass.

Fonfara says that Chavez' chin is not made of granite.

Duran is my man but the kid next door to me beat him....KIRKLAND LAING ! Tony Laing his bro. and european champion who i'm still and always will be big friends with understands what a great Durun was but ease up ...Accidents happen I think it's an ok fight.
I know I lived next door to an accident for many years....Kirk and Tony need a little mention now and again....long live the king ...Micky Duff...who did so much for boxing ..one off the sometimes forgotten greats ....

This only goes out to boxing purists !

Bit of a rant but that's boxing the sport we love.

Small Cotto has a way better defense and speed than Jr.

Chavez has zero chances to win on the cards since all Canelo fights have paid off corrupted judges. He cant even knockout total bums in the last 5 years he fought so no way hes gonna hurt Canelita.
