    Following Julio Cesar Chavez Jr.'s twelve round decision win over John Duddy at the Alamodome in San Antonio, Texas, Top Rank CEO Bob Arum discussed the future options for Chavez. One major fight that Arum would like to make would see Chavez move back down to 154 to fight the new WBA junior middleweight champion Miguel Cotto...Arum has always been a fan of Puerto rico vs Mexico theme,because it brings big business on pay per view and creates alot of money at the gate.Arum thinks Chavez became a star in the fight and improved a lot.The old Chavez would have been demolished by Duddy"was' Arum' thoughs on Chavez improvements. Ariza and roach tell me there is no problem going down to 154. Maybe he fights Miguel Cotto,for the junior middleweight championship", ARUM said........................MAKE IT HAPPEN:deal

    Arum is talking bull**** cuz he'd never put Chavez in there with Cotto this soon. I dont care how wartorn Cotto is, he'd ruin the Jr. He should be looking at Sergio MOra cuz that's his level right there.

    I don't see it. From a business perspective, Chavez just elevated his status and it makes more sense to ride this FAKE gravy train further than to derail it by fighting Cotto.

    he`s not ready for Cotto yet, Sergio Mora sounds good to me. I think Foreman could beat him.

    Yeah too soon! Let's wait until Chavez Jr. has at least 100 fights.

    Why do people find it acceptable for Cotto to fight bums?

    Cotto isn't going up to 160 and Pavlik won't kill himself again to make 160 either.
