    Apparently WBC is pushing for this fight.

    How do you see this one go?

    Jack wins. Not sure if UD or KO. But I hope for KO.

    This is the only time I would root for one of those Terrible Mandible Team members... Many of whom are PED cheats. But Chavez is way worse.

    Jack would win, Chavez Jr simply isn't good enough.

    Chavez by Ko. Chavez looked horrible his last fight but if he's listening to Robert he can be a force to reckon with, and Jack doesn't have enough power to keep him off.

    Agree, stylewise Chavez isn't the best fit for Jack and his pressure will eventually get to Jack. He'll either win by late KO or close on points.

    Only if Robert can implement some kind of Maidana like style with him, and if Chavez still has that iron chin. If it's the same Chavez from the last fight Jack will win.

    Yeah he looked as ****ty as I've ever seen him in that match, but maybe that was because he returned to quickly from the massive ass whipping Fonfara gave him.

    Not a bad fight if it happens. Jack probably beats Chavez but a Chavez win wouldn't be that big of an upset.

    Jack easily. Chavez is a club fighter. Not even good enough for ESPN FNF if his name wasn't Chavez.

    I believe weight would be a big factor in this fight....it's quite obvious jack has the class to outbox Chavez but can he deal with the pressure and the power.....I think so.

    Jack, Chavez is just not very good.
