Comments Thread For: Chavez Jr. Changes Opponent at The Last Minute, Controversy Erupts

[_Rexy_]

I've never heard a fighter claim his opponent didn't make weight. What kind of mickey mouse show is this?

Chavez Jr is still little g's dream fight..

Still cringe at that sparring session...as brutal as you will see

[Sid-Knee]

Chavez switched because he doesn't want a prepared opponent standing opposite him. So the day before the fight, he gets some guy off the couch to give him his best shot of getting a victory. But even then it wouldn't surprise to see Chavez still lose.

The fact that he’s allowed to continue this buffoonery of career tells you all you need to know about the corruption in the sport

[Chavmex40]

Why is this fker relevant?

[SN!PER]

Oh well, maybe one of Chavez's grandsons will inherit the warrior genes.

Just have to wait another ten years for the next Chavez to turn pro.

Not really. He was a light heavyweight on duretics who was fighting Middleweights.

I know you boxed some - how much weight do some of these cut from their walking around weights?

And how tf do they do it?? lol

I was in shock watching that...like wtf was Chavez doing

Then I saw that he actually fights like that sometimes. Very bizarre. Never really seen a guy who just seems to welcome punishment like that with no real intent to throw back.

Such a shame, he is so skillful and has power and Son of a legend. He had everything to be great but work ethic. Bummer

You forgot to mention how handsome he is also.
