    Maybe I've been spoilt recently with Joshua Vs Klitschko, the event, the size of the fight and the actual fight but that was such a disappointment I want to be sick.


    Boxnation have gone straight in on Chavez Jr... "should Chavez Jr ever go back to Mexico"

    Hahahahaha

    So--another light touch for Canelo?
    A weight drained guy who has done nothing at all over the last few years.

    Awful, awful fight.

    Canelo did what he could, but it wasn't that impressive.

    Chavez, Jr. is a joke and should retire immediately.

    No amount of Heredia undetectables would have changed Chavez from a zombie into a live fighter.

    Chaves would be wised to stay in the US.

    That was one of the worst performance I've seen for a big fight.

    Yeah true, but they couldn't give him a round tonight, that was probably the poorest performances I've ever seen in a fight of this size that's gone the distance.

    That was a fantastic sparring session from Canelo tonight. How did you enjoy the fee to watch said sparring session?

    No doubt. It was awful. Canelo should have took him out, but I betted on the Over, so can't complain.

    With how badly Chavez was being smacked about in some of the rounds, and taking into account how little Chavez did or threw, my only surprise is there weren't at one or two 10-8 rounds in there.
