Chavez will get Murdered fighting at 168

I would hate to see what the likes of Froch does to him ..

 

He's not ready for Froch but if Ward moves up,168 might be the division where Jnr really makes his mark.He'll need to acclimatize though,he's not a one-punch guy,and 168 has a couple of sturdy chins amongst the gatekeepers.

 

Many also thought of that with Pacquiao moving up in the heavier division.

 

IMO Froch just looks like the worst possible match up for him..


Froch has the chin to eat his power, He is more skilled, and hits like a mule...

I do not see any way that Jr can win this fight. :think

 

i guess were moving the bar now.

it used to be the elite at 160 will murder jr., now it's the 168.

 

Agreed. His style is based on his size at 160. He'll be the smaller man at 68.

 

stfu you ****ing ***. Pacquiao got beat.:hi: Nobody likes or respects your opinion anymore.:hi:

 

Very goo Idea, well not for Chavez jr, but for the fans, fighters should fight at a weight that suits them best.

 

...go away.

 

he hasnt actually fought anyone elite at 160.

 

the threadstarter and a few others seems like they've given up on the idea of jr. getting murdered at 160.

as for him not fighting anybody at 160, he will close that book when he ko's sergio next.

 

He'll probably beat/be competitive with the fringe contenders like Magee, Oosthuizen and Rodriguez. But I don't really rate Chavez that highly to be honest. Even guys like Balszay would be favourites imo.

Alright, how does he do against these guys?

Stieglitz
Pavlik
Bika
Bute
DeGale
Groves
Magee
Oosthuizen
Rodriguez
Balzsay

 

If he ko'd Martinez it would be a shocker. I think Martinez picks him off and never allows Jr to get close enough.

 

:adminatsch

Gennady Golovkin, Pirog and Martinez would beat him @ 160
Sturm and Geale would give him a competitive fight.

The only (top) guys @ 168 he could beat are Stieglitz an Balzsay the rest beats him up
Kessler ko's him @168 in less then 6 rounds

 

Chavez would
KO/TKo Stieglitz late in a great fight
win a close on points vs Pavlik
would get Ko'ed vs Bute quick
close fight with Magee
would lose via ko vs Bika
beat Balzsay
