Oh my God. So many dudes were backing Lee. I knew he wouldn't hold up to the pressure. Ni99a folded like freshly washed laundry.
It's not like Sergio is getting any younger and he does rely on athleticism and movement. he couldn't stand there and trade with Chavez who is younger and bigger...but I doubt Sergio would. Sergio would need to fight him like he did Serhiy Dzinziruk. The boxing skills he showed in that fight were great...especially because he was using his Jab as well as combinations.
Eh, I thought it was fair enough. . . Lee could have taken some damage. . Lee should have taken a knee. . . But he's not Puerto Rican But I agree, HBO was EXTREMELY biased. . No way that compubox is correct either. . Lee was catching a lot of those, or partially blocked. . . Either way, great performance by Chavez. . . Lee looks good at times, but he just doesn't have the stamina. . He fades too bad.
I'm not so sure, he seems to soak up punishment like it's nothing and Sergio's a small middleweight. Compared to Sergios last two fightagainst Barker and Macklin, I belive SS win's but not easily.
Chavez was winning a close fight. Much heavier shots. Stopped early. Dont think it would have mattered.
Chavez Jr is what he is......Freddy kept his natural fighting style and has solidified the major holes he had before working at wild card. I think defensively Jr needs more work but not because of what we saw tonight.....I think Jr ate the shots from Lee more because he wanted to mentally deflate Andy...breaking him down physically and mentally at the same time....job well done by JCC Jr.
