    YOur ignoring the fact completly that Chavez comes in around 180 when he has to make 160 so **** knows what he will come in at if he only has to make 165.

    It isnt his ability that is the main problem, andy lee was out boxing him, his greatest asset is his sheer size. It isnt a level playing field, man is ****ing huge.

    Yes but he's not very agile / athletic to boot! There are more down sides to being as big as Chavez Jr is on fight night than there are up-sides.

    Murray's not small, he'll be 175+ and he's a strong lad.

    This isnt wrestling its boxing, if Chavez had craft and he was a good inside fighter I'd be more appreciative of what he can do. He's got neither :deal He's a basic plodder, and Murray will expose that. I think its a fantastic bit of match making in all honesty.

    If Murray drops a decision it will likely be a hometown decision, no credibility lost! if he stops him it will surprise people like you and Murray's the next big thing, its a very clever move :deal

    Nuff respect for Murray but his management/promoter aren't doing him any ****ing favors. He has been robbed twice abroad, why set him up to do so again? Everything will be stacked in Chavez's favor regardless of how well Murray does. Hatton is poor as a promoter. Its a difficult situation, how else wud he get a title shot? There is no way Chavez would come to the UK.

    Murray doesn't have the work rate or pop In his punches to beat Chavez.

    Hopefully Murray is getting good money for this, I know he is a family man. Its all against him again. Love his attitude tho.

    Surely the less Chavez drains the less he rehydrates? If he only has to make 165 then he won't be able to put as much back on as quickly?

    I'm not a nutritionist so I'm not entirely sure but that would make sense to me?
