Comments Thread For: Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. Weighs Around 172-Pounds, Says Nacho

[Sun_Tzu]

I hope he isn't dead fight night, I'm hoping for at least a good effort from Jr.

Jr. is going to eat a cow after the weigh in.

Well let's see what he looks like at 164 1/2 lbs

Hopefully he won't look skeletal which is my concern

Great... Chavez is going to win and fuçk up lil g payday

Big paydays have to actually get made first. And I'd bet Chavez is way more likely to actually make the fight with GGG at all.

Golovkin Chavez would be a pretty good payday if JCCjr actually wins this. Smaller pie but Golovkin gets a bigger piece of it.

I'm excited that JCCjr isn't just collecting a paycheck. Looking like best opponent to Canelo in a while.

47% chance to beat Canelo is what Nacho said. That's not a good thing to say. You should have confidence in your fighter and say that 100% you're going to win whether you have doubts or not. Being that Chavez Jr has been actually training really hard and is in good condition you're not giving him any encouragement by saying he has a 47% chance of winning.

I wasn't going to purchase this PPV anyway. I'm going to stream and watch it for free. Canelo hasn't had a PPV worth paying for since Cotto-Canelo, so it's no coincidence in which that is the last Canelo PPV I payed for.

In case Jr. is only after the money, he will come at 164.5 on the scales... In case he wants to have a chance to win the fight, Jr. should show up at 166-167 for the weigh-in...

Sparring a welterweight to train for canelo? Wtf.......

[Corelone]

Jr. gets 24 hours to eat the whole cow after the weigh in. Nacho will probably stake one out, turn Jr. loose, and run for cover.

Going for speed... and punching downward. Canelo is 5'9" in his dreams.

What is junior doing in a sauna a month out from the fight? is he doing a trial weight cut? I dont see the benefit to this, its not healthy. Unless it was for a very short period of time, like a half hour or something.
