    To an extent I agree with you.

    However, in this particular instance, Chavez has failed one drug test and has created a great deal of doubt and suspicion in his two most recent fights.

    It might well be the case that Chavez has been clean, but given his history, these back-to-back fishy situations don't paint the best picture for him.

    Yeah, I think Chavez is extremely suspicious. He's been caught once using a diuretic, which would explain his weight loss and rehydration of 20+ lbs and now he's had two further dodgy incidents around drug tests.

    Chavez is at fighting at least one division below where he should be. I mean, I'm sure it's unrelated, but Top Rank doesn't have a stake in any of the big boys at 168 where there are several big names and world class fighters, does he???

    I'm sure the two aren't related though. Of course not.

    I am JR hater? Sweetheart, go thru my post history and tell me where I am a Jr hater. I've done nothing but give the kid credit for his progression over the last few years.

    Fact is Rubio and his team were ready, willing and waiting to take that test. And expected to.

    Fact also is, for some reason, Jr either fails tests, doesn't take them, or suspicion surrounds them.

    I don't know what the answer is, but I am going into it with an open mind. Can you say the same? There is certainly enough to raise a red flag, unless of course, someone is dense.

    Every advantage possible, every time, for Jr.
