    My personal opinion is that being unbelievably easy to hit while facing a monster puncher is a pretty bad thing.

    I'd pick Rubio if Chavez didn't come into the ring at 180

    Guy was already taking drugs a few fights ago so he could drain. Remember the No Contest?

    Draining down isn't going to get any easier as time goes on.

    Who knows if Chavez wont come into the fight drained?

    I don't know... For me Jr will win in a superb fight, taking a lot of punishment.

    A late Rubio stoppage wouldn't surprise me. It's the only way he can win too.

    46 KOs in 53 wins is impressive.

    Rubio by KO in a War! I hope, it will be a classic mexican slugfest!

    I'm gonna say Rubio TKO. The power of that mustache just can't be overcome.


    Chavez by UD.(somewhat controversial)

    Interesting fight in deed... will clear all of our doubts about Jr. I just watched his last fight against manfredo... he whooped manfredos sorry ass.. of course manfredo is not an A class fighter but he aint a cab driver either...

    Rubio has been hand picked for Chavez so it would be hard to seem him upsetting the applecart... however Chavez's luck would have to run out sooner or later so it's just about possible that Rubio may spark him out (which is the only way he can ever win)... One day Chavez will fight more that a C grade fighter and then it will be lights out...

    Chavez starts strong, runs into a bit of resistance in the middle rounds, and gives up a few at the end to take a UD.

    But he needs a stoppage win to keep the critics at bay, though. Hopefully he’ll get it.

    Chavez by late stoppage or decision in a fairly impressive performance.
