Comments Thread For: Nacho Contradicts Chavez Jr. Claims of Starving Himself, Weight

[BoxngLove]

I feel for JCC Jr.. He did not get to smoke all the w33d and workout in his living room for this fight.
There may be starving children in Africa, but there was a malnourished child in the ring last week who only made a few million dollars. Oh the horror.

You really need to take a deep breath and gather your thoughts.

Chavez Jr and Canelo are both notorious for starving themselves to have a weight advantage. Which is why I posted the question in a thread about a fight between the two of them.

What part is confusing or upsetting you?

Tell me what great fighters dont rehydrate @ least 15-17 lbs like canelo has? Dont say gigi,hes taller than canelo by 2" & yet makes 160,rehydrates to at least 175 easy.

According to him Canelo rehydrates 25-60lbs. I 1000% agree with you on the 15-17 lbs. But that fkn RTard is beyond ****** if he thinks im gonna biy his BS that Canelo makes 185. *** him. God damn liar.

Nacho: "He says he did not eat, I saw him eating egg whites"
Luckily Chavez Jr. has the right to eat something Nacho! or Nacho believe that when someone say "he practically didn't eat for weeks" that means he really didn't eat for weeks?

[Madison Boxing]

dont understand why nacho is coming in for criticism. pretty sure his gameplan wasnt for chavez to go in there and not throw any punches for 12 rounds

[SUBZER0ED]

Y'all see the video of Chavez Jr with **********s after the fight? What a disgrace this kid is.

Hey, he got his ass beat for 12 rounds. Why not spend the rest of the night getting his meat beat?

I figured you were like Hunter and Khan and every time you told your story Canelo got bigger.

Canelo weighed around 174 for Chavez. Chavez weighed more than 10 lbs then Canelo fight night. And no FN way Chavez was above 190 like you suggesting.

You trying tell me Chavez weighed over 190??? Dont stutter. Be VERY clear on this.

When I watched the fight the commentators said none of the fighters allowed to be weighed before stepping on the ring.

So your 174 pounds estimation is just as good as anyone else's.

Canelo never ever looked as HUGE as this time vs. Chavez Jr.

AFAIK since the fight vs. Cotto, where he looked three weight divisions bigger than tiny Cotto, Canelo has NEVER allowed to be weighed on fight night.

Canelo looked 180, maybe even more than 180 pounds against Cotto and Khan.

Canelo looked EVEN BIGGER vs. Chavez Jr. and it makes sense, because there's practically a 10-pound weigh-in difference between 155 and and 164.5.

My estimation is that Canelo was around 185 pounds (or even more) vs. Chavez Jr., and Chavez Jr., who still looked drained and unhealthy even on fight night, must have been around 180 tops.

If you try to fool people into thinking that Canelo was lighter vs. Chavez Jr. than he was vs. Cotto and Khan, good luck with that. Canelo was the heavier guy vs. Chavez Jr., and he was the only healthy guy in there.

Next time make the fight at 168 (in Mexico, as a charity event, taking half of the earnings for orphan houses or something because of course nobody will be interested in seeing those two fight again outside Mexico), with exactly the same fine per excess weight, a reasonable one, say 250K as opposed to millions.

I'll bet anyone that it would become a contested fight. Probably both guys healthy, weighing around 190 on fight night, and Chavez Jr. WOULD ACTUALLY THROW a few powerful punches.

Those weights were provided by a reporter from espndeportes on national tv, he was really close to the fighters on fight night.. the video was provided before...

If ESPNdeportes or whoever, declared that Canelo was 174 on fight night vs. Chavez Jr., they are lying through their teeth and trying to fool naive or gullible people. Canelo was a tank vs. Chavez Jr., he could not have weighed any less than 185 pounds. Honestly I don't think ESPNdeportes is a reliable source anyways. But hey, if there are people who really believe Canelo was a tiny 174-pounder when we all saw what a huge guy he was, so be it, keep believing alternate "facts."

Am sure Canelo too had to make sacrifices to make weight for the fight, regardless of egg white or whatnot.
