    I doubt Chavez will be comfortable with Quillins head shots. Quillin fought a boxer. Imagine what happens against a guy who comes at him with no jab?

    Do you think Quillin's head shots are that much harder than Sergio's?

    I'm not saying he wouldn't get the decision, it wouldn't be a walk in the park though.

    Quillin would get completely outclassed by Sergio dude.... He's too slow/flat footed, and he has NO KILLER instinct. Sergio boxes circles around him... either stops him late, or wins a shut out.

    Sergio busted Chavez up and kept him behind his guard for 10 rounds. Chavez was ecstatic he won a round. And Sergio's a small middleweight

    Quillin is a legit middleweight with power in both hands and good counter punching ability who has hurt everyone hes fought.

    I think Quillin is a stylistic nightmare for Chavez

    Agreed. Unless Sergio ages considerably or Quillin gets lucky he loses handily

    :roll: Acting like Quillin had absolutely no role in the decision is absurd. It is still hilarious though how he suddenly decided Martinez simply had to be ducking him immediately after the offer was turned down.

    True. Of course, Chavez Jr has no jab he can use to build upon shots that would either keep Quillin at bay or keep him from throwing counters. I just have the feeling Chavez could get inside easier vs Quillin (taking punishment) than he did late vs Sergio. I think in the end, Chavez would land more on Quillin than he did on Sergio -- obviously with no dramatic effect on the end result. Not a nightmare per say, but a hard night's work just to get those body shots in, which I think he would... Quillin not liking it, while it lasts.

    Yeah im sure Quillin tells Golden Boy who he wants to fight. :lol::lol:

    There's maybe 4-5 fighters in boxing right now who have free range to choose their opponents

    You think Donaire wouldnt be fighting Rigo if he had a choice. Or Bam Bam fighting Mattyhsee?

    Come on son. GBP had a mega fight with Chavez lined up there gonna take a chance with Quillin.:roll:

    Dude Quillin admitted it himself and whined about money, even though he had defeated no one of note at the time and had no fan base:

    And the Quillin situation is not a parallel to **** like Top Rank-Golden Boy fights since he was actually offered the fight and since DiBella has proven capable of working with GBP. Few fighters have complete say in who they fight, but it's silly to act like the offer was turned down without any kind of knowledge or consent on the part of Quillin (which of course makes all of his call-outs even more ridiculous and disingenuous).
