    I watched the fight yesterday through Top Rank's coverage which was broadcast through Sky TV (We had crappy Mario Lopez as the commentator through our broadcast version) they noted both Chavez and Martinez weights at being 159 pounds, at what times did they record both of these weights? Was this a week prior or a day before the fight?

    On Friday (the day before the fight) i think it was around 5PM (GMT-5)

    Chavez was 158 and looked like ****. Martinez was 159 and looked in great shape.

    As much it was pretty clear Jr looked the heavier man, all this talk about him being 190 is a tad bit exhaderated there? i was thinking he might be just below 168.

    Chavez did? That would mean that he was weighing 195lbs on the night? Nah man that's ridiculous, even for a drug cheat:nut

    Did he mean he lost 35lbs in training camp?
