Not many people aware of that ? you gotta be kidding right ? i hear the excuse all the time and to be honest im sick of the excuse it was a legit excuse before but not now after 30+ fights its about time he atleast fights top 10 ranking fighter how is he going to improve fighting nobodies all the time ? and whats even worse is that he is struggling with these nobodies he should have atleast 2 losses on his record already atleast when his father fought cab drivers he beat them well and showed greatness.

Yeah I noticed a while back in his fight with Jose Celaya or whatever his name is and he really struggled. He got the KO win and scored a knockdown early on but he got exposed at times and got hit far too easily. When Chavez Jr faces an elite fighter he will be knocked out, no question.
Yeah, I don't doubt he could be in trouble if he faced an elite fighter. I wish he did have more than 100 amateur fights under his belt plus exposure to olympics and bunch of other stuff most boxers go through. Still, if by luck or whatever you call it he ended up beating an elite fighter, I would give him more credit than others considering his limited experience in the ring.
