Comments Thread For: Jacobs vs. Chavez Jr. Moves Forward, Now At 173-Pound Catchweight

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Two days after securing a huge victory in the courtroom, Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. fell prey to the toughest opponent of his career-the scale. A currently scheduled non-title fight between the second-generation boxer and Brooklyn's Daniel Jacobs will now take place at a modified catchweight of 173 pounds. An agreement was reached between the pair of former middleweight titlists-which includes an undisclosed settlement payable to Jacobs-after it was revealed that Chavez Jr. would be unable to comply with the previous contracted limit of 168 pounds.

I can’t stand this human excretion called Chavez Jr. Has he ever complied with anything in his life at all?

Guy is a disaster

Chavez Jr is an embarrassment to the sport. As laughable as his behaviour is, he will probably be able to absorb the forthcoming a$$ whooping from Jacobs longer given the extra lbs.

So you're helping fund this embarrassment? Chavez is an absolute disgrace.

Chavez has been one of the biggest jokes in the sport.

Chavez Jr is disgusting, guys like him kill boxing.

This is getting farcical. Chavez is indeed a disgrace. I'm not sure if his heart was ever in the fight business but it sure as heck isn't now. He's just looking for paychecks to keep coming in and is willing to get beaten on for 12 rounds or less to get that money.
