Chavez Jr. vs. Rubio Saturday night fight thread

[Mars_ax]

In defense of Chavez Jr., the Rubio win is a good win. I hate that he didn't take the post-fight drug tests because given his history in failing a drug test, it taints this win. However, if we give him the benefit of the doubt, a win over Rubio is arguably better thany any win Andy Lee or Dmitry Pirog have at this point. Right? This win makes Chavez Jr. a legitimate top ten middleweight. There can be no debate about it. Sergio Martinez, Gennady Golovkin and Dmitry Pirog would beat him. Felix Sturm probably has too much boxing ability for Chavez Jr. Sturm is now fighting Chavez Jr.'s leftovers in Zbik after Zbik turned down a fight with Proksa. I could see Chavez Jr. beating Lee and maybe Geale, not saying it would go that way, but I can see it. He may be too big for Proksa who is a smaller middleweight.

Why give Chavez Jr. the benefit of doubt? He's already failed a drug test, and recieved a seven month suspension from the Nevada State Athletic Commission, and it looks like he would have failed another one if the legally required testing was done after the Rubio fight. In addition to that he was busted for driving drunk in California 2 weeks ago. He has no credibilty at all, and there's no telling what drugs he might have taken before the Rubio fight.
