Diuretics.

I wasn't expecting much from the Canelo vs Lopez fight, pretty much a mismatch.

Haven't heard it mentioned, not once on replay or follow up show until liteally a minute ago

They can forget about a rematch I'd say. Chavez has to grow up or walk on

Yep, selling the rematch. Tell you what if there ends up being a Sergio/Junior II, Julio weed-boy won't do any better.

With Martinez recovery and 'time' I don't see it. Chavez has more rebuilding to do than a used car lot on a Monday morning and fo long term future...overall earning...he should get rematch out of his head. He's not a middleweight and needs to move up.

The Nevada State Boxing Commission might see it as "relevent".

And face the bigger, heavy bangers who will come into the ring as big as Junior and neutralize the only advantage Junior has coming into the ring?

I think Chavez and his team would rather keep doing diuretics and skipping piss tests.

I'd like to think that Martinez' market value should be peaking after this fight, I don't believe he needs Junior to make big bucks, he's got other options.
The thing is with Junior, he's simply not all that talented, sure he's always got a punchers chance, but he'll always lose to skilled pugs like Martinez. I also look at Junior the way everyone else would be, if he hadn't scored the KD in the 12 round, very amateurish at times, and exposed as such.

Think what you want, weed is a banned substance, I don't see how they can overlook it.

Andre ward will be licking his chops for the easiest high profile payday after all of his high quality, top tier fights if Jr ever decides to move up. That 'fight' will be more cruel than Ali vs Holmes.
