Chavez Jr. vs. Rubio Saturday night fight thread

[ElTerribleMorales]

fuck this dude seriously, Chavez Jr Vs anyone at 168 should be next, this is beyond ridiculous on what this kid has to do to be competitive, 22 lbs heavier, headbutts, pushing with the elbow, and constant bitching to the ref

I have it 6-4 JCC2, I think Rubio snatched the last two.

I see it similar, isn't one sided in the slightest. Lederman needs to retire.

Rubio needs to flip the script and go all uppercuts...Chavez is totally bent over and leading with head (butts)...and his left wing elbow gives Floyd a run for the money

he's completely open for the uppercut and Rubio had success with it early in the 8th, they seriously need to make a ruling on how much weight u can pack on over night, cause 22 lbs in 24 hours is just ridiculous

I agree with the weight bullshit. Chavez looks like a moose next to Rubio.

Chavez should lose a point for that chicken wing elbow...he uses it as a default blatantly.

Rubio should just take the stool out next round and hope that all the judges are blind...as per norm

[killersheep]

What a round!!

HBO completely ignoring Rubio's good work there, I gave him that round.

6-5 JCC2

[Gandalf]

Rubio took the 11th too IMO. He needs to let it all go in this final one.

Sr. used it too however he was smaller in size so he could hide it more and was slicker at hiding it.

Fucking HBO, I guess Chavez is the only one throwing any effective punches.

[CutMeMick]

I have it 7-4 for Jr.

[Spicoli]

Lampley screaming Raging Bull ....He needs to bite a sidewalk!

[killersheep]

7-5 JCC2, Rubio just couldn't figure out how to take a step to the left.

[ElTerribleMorales]

so what did we learn tonight? that Donaire is still a cocky little fuck whose defense is nowhere as good as he thinks it is and who taunts while getting punched in the face, and that Chavez Jr can beat guys who fight 2 divisions lower than where he should be at, sorry but not an impressive night for either guy

[Gandalf]

I think Chavez won by a couple of rounds, but I think that was largely because Rubio allowed Chavez to do what he wanted too often. He should have jabbed more and circled, but always straight back.

Good fight, but Chavez bulled his way to the win against a willing opponent. I'm still not into Chavez. I would like to see him against Pavlik. That would be very fun.

I'd love to see Martinez vs Julio Jr, I think Sergio clowns him and he's got the power to knock him out.
