You guys are never happy, first you want him to "step up", but when he does you complain that he's moving too fast.
Let me get this straight, now you think a steady but cautious advance is the way to go, right?
You can't have it both ways!
Neither could Chavez jr. But in fairness Canelo and Chavez approach and professionalism couldn't be further apart. You can arguably say Canelo has never been tested, I don't think Martinez would be a wise first acid test realistically.
