Re: Sergio Martinez vs Chavez Jr Face-Off Preview video
I wouldn't be surprised if Martinez dominates, but gets royally fucked on the judges scorecards, what would be a surprise is Jr. legitimately winning this fight. And if Jr really believes he can walk right through Sergio's punches, he's going to be in for a rude awakening.

I would not put it past Chavez to come in over weight on purpose, and just take a hit on his purse. :sumo:
If he does that, it shows just how scared he is.
He has a history of not being professional with his training, his weight, his drug tests, so I will not be surprised at all if he pulls that bullshit.
An interesting, but VERY distinct possibility. To be honest, I wouldn't be surprised by this turn of events either. And if he comes in TOO much over the weight..... I wouldn't blame Martinez for not going through with the fight. 'Cause if he did fight and LOST, people would eventually forget that Chavez had gone in over the weight. But if Martinez just said "no"..... all the blame and people's wrath would rightfully fall on Junior.

It's hard to imagine Jr. making the 160 lb. limit, so I agree that this is a real possibility. Sergio would likely fight him anyway, but it would really suck if he lost.

I hope Junior comes in on weight otherwise it would be a very hollow fight and victory just like Castillio v Coarrles 2.
Re: Sergio Martinez vs Chavez Jr Face-Off Preview video
aren't there commission assigned advance weigh-ins for this fight? 30 or 60 days? if so, we should have an idea of whether jr is on target or not.
i don't think it will do him much good to come in too big. he won't be able to chase martinez down before stamina issues become a factor. does being 25lbs heavier than your opponent give you an advantage if you can't hit him?

Chavez was exactly at the maximum limit at the 30 day weigh-in, according to the WBC, for whatever that's worth. ;D
I really hope this weekend they make their 7 day weights public, because that will tell us a lot.

It's not just the weights with Junior. He'd better be ready to provide all the urine samples they ask for. Even if that means having a catheter shoved up in there. No dumbass excuses THIS time!

F'in Chavez should get in the ring with someone his own size like Johnathan Gonzalez

THAT bum? I wouldn't even watch the fucking fight.

I hope Martinez knocks those goofy teeth out and then breaks his nose.
