    Nothing against Chavez Jr personally but the fact he has been given preferential treatment, to the detriment of other boxers stirs resentment in me. For this reason, I hope he gets knocked out. It would be a fantastic "**** you" to Arum, Chavez and the WBC who do as they please with zero regard for justice and fairness.

    Plus I got to see Rubio live vs. Pavlik in Youngtown. He's a tough SOB. Like to see him get his chance in the sun. :good

    I will be rooting for Rubio because I like Rubio more. It is not that Chavez is one of my least favorite fighters (which he is), but that Rubio is among my 50 favorite or so.

    I think it will be razor close ala Chavez/Zbik and Chavez will get the SD, maybe even UD.

    I like Rubio a lot, heard nothing but great things about him from a friend of mine who met him as well. I actually like JCC jr. but I would love to see Arum and *especially* the WBC knocked down.

    Jr. has improved a lot. I think he will win on points.

    If Lemieux had any intentions to box he would've beaten Rubio who's not good enough to give a disciplined world class fighter trouble. Jr. will be fine and I'm not sure I'll root against him, what good if he gets knocked out in a pointless fight, won't make it up for not fighting Maravilla and getting knocked out by a Legend.

    Rubio by KO in a Fight of the Year Contender! This Fight is really underrated. It will be big!

    That's how I see it too. I don't want to retroactively discredit victories, but Alcine-Lemieux really kind of makes his one decent win to get this fight look somewhat less impressive.
