    That's what I had previously believed from what I'd seen on TV and such. Ah well, we know that if they fight one day, it would be absolutely huge.

    He folks, I wanted to highlight this little part of a translation I did earlier in which I referred to a highlighted Hopkins-esque tactic Marquez suggested for Chavez Jr.:

    The starred section seems to be something that Chavez Sr. was instructing Jr. to do on 24/7 (starting around 3:10)

    By cutting off the exits leftwards and forcing Martinez to circle to the right, he can walk Sergio right into the right hand. People have often pointed out Martinez's awkward balance when forced in that direction, particularly that article by Springs Toledo that highlighted Martinez's lead foot too far inward...Martinez needs to avoid getting pigeonholed and control the center. Sergio's sparring looked like he was working a lot on the inside, so maybe that's how he plans to avoid being backed straight up and clocked like he was against Pavlik and Macklin. Interestingly enough, Sr. also said he thought Martinez was dangerous when you followed him, but not when you stayed in the center of the ring.

    Eyes burn a little lol, but great stuff as usual. Only read the translation and saw the Sr/Jr footage but nonetheless classic stuff. Jr needs shorts it looks like he's wearin panties.
