    :rofl on those Jim Lampley pics. Wish I watched on HBO now :lol:

    BoxNation covered last night quite well. Bunce and Lillis were interesting enough in the studio but Colonel Bob and Raul Marquez were pretty annoying. Even Bunce admitted he got ****ed off with what they were saying half there time.

    Decent night overall though :good

    Not sure where Donaire and Chavez Jr go now though. Donaire had something lacking again and I don't like to say it but JCC Jr still annoys me. Macklin, Murray and Barker could beat him IMO.

    Chavez works with Ariza as well doesn't he?

    I'm impressed with the way Chavez has bulked up under Ariza. The guy is massive now, he looked a wiry guy that wasn't a genuine middleweight previously.

    He might have even got too big though...

    Don't think he refused but there wasn't any testing at all and Rubio's protesting since thats against WBC rules.

    Didn't Chavez fail a test a few years ago :think

    yea a Diuretic for help with weight loss.

    Chavez was asked why he didn't take a test after fight and he just shrugged his shoulders and replied to all the other questions. Jose Sillyman said that the Chavez team forgot.

    Source: The general:yep but quoted from camp Rubio

    Gracias amigo

    Jr does look enormous at the weight & though its completely legal cutting that amount of weight I'm not sure its very healthy long term.

    Freddie and Alex aint daft. They've stuffed up their boy so he has to move up and avoids fighting Sergio.

    Who will he fight at 168 though? If he's being steered away from Sergio Arum won't exactly be keen to put him in with Ward, Froch, Bute, Kessler or Stieglitz.

    Yeah i kept thinking about how small and **** he was last night. He's really done well but i wouldn't be shocked if there's substance use.

    Talking to a mate who's been involved in sport he was saying how rife it is within sport.

    Pavlik at 168 :think

    Arum's talking about Margarito and Lee at MW.

    It'd be pretty cool to see him bash up Margo at MW. Marg made a career out of boiling down to welter and using his strength and size. Time for him to face that himself :hey
