Chavez Jr. vs. Rubio Saturday night fight thread

[Mars_ax]

As well as Donaire vs. Wilfredo Vazquez Jr., 2 title fights for us fans, it should be worth a look.

Feb. 4
At San Antonio (HBO): Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. vs. Marco Antonio Rubio, 12 rouds, for Chavez's WBC middleweight title; Nonito Donaire vs. Wilfredo Vazquez Jr., 12 rounds, for vacant WBO junior featherweight title; Vanes Martirosyan vs. Troy Lawry, 10 rounds, junior middleweights.

Rubio should be a solid test for Julio Jr, Rubio is a big, durable, experienced middleweight, who's got decent power and fought better competition. Chavez Jr. figures to outwork Rubio and get a decision, but it will be interesting to see how the fight plays out.
As for Donaire, I don't see Vazquez Jr. being much of a threat, Nonito will put his lights out within 6 rounds.

Who you kats got?

Must admit I don't know much about Rubio. But if the Chavez Computer spit out his name as an opponent, he must not be much of a threat to take Junior's "0" or worse.... knock him the fukk out.

Rubio is probably the best fighter, with the most power, Julio Jr. has faced so far. Chances are Roach will have Jr. ready, but i'm just hoping Rubio fucks up their preparation on fight night.

I actually think Rubio might pull it off.

At least I hope he does, I can't stand Jr.

I never cared much for Chavez Sr either.. If Rubio is able to hurt Jr, we might see a good fight, if not Jr will likely win a controversial decision.

Julio Ceaser Chavez Snr was one of the greatest fighters I have ever seen. I love his style of boxing it was beautiful and brutal. You take that back.

I didn't say Julio Sr. wasn't great in his heyday, check him out clowning Uncle Roger for the WBC super featherweight title when Chavez was just 22, in 1985:

Wilfredo getting his last digs in, before Donaire pummels him.
