Chavez Jr., Vanda set for boxing rematch in Vegas

[SigmaMu]

Considering the criticism Amir Khan gets I'm baffled by the support for Chavez Jr who clearly has barely 10% of the talent of his father.
As soon as he steps up to even top domestic level he's getting creamed. He's from the same cloth as Tye Fields and Roman Greenberg and is building his record on complete nobodies.

As it has been said before...Chavez Jr. has no amateur experience, no olympic experience, etc. He put those gloves for the first time and straight to the pros. An amateur facing an amateur is quite different than an amateur (which Chavez Jr. is technically) facing a pro who already had in average more than 100 fights as an amateur plus olympic exposure or something. Of course we want to see Chavez Jr. fight for a belt already. If his name was not J.C. Chavez Jr., we wouldn't really care.
Same thing happened with J.C. Chavez. Straight to the pros and now a hall of famer after all his well deserved accomplishments.

I dont buy it. I seen a fight in which Chavez Jr was fighting Paez jr. and Chavez had some skills and if that was not an amatuer fight, I don't what was.

Anyway, I am not too big on Chavez jr but his first fight with Vanda was pretty entertaining, I agree with Bilbo that Vanda is a tomato but it was funny to watch these two tomato cans get it on, I swear it was like watching two heavy weights that night as they tired and looked slow as turtles, even so, it was a fun fight to watch, I will toon in to catch the rematch and see if Chavez Jr can redeem himself What was funnier than anything else, was when Chavez Jr's entourage jumped into the crowd of people and began hitting people this was not shown on tv but I caught it a few nights later on a Mexican website. Chavez Sr was going crazy

Uuuuuuuh...10/11 year old exhibition match? I repeat, its like an amateur with 30+ fights fighting guys with more than 130 fights under their belt and in the pros. I am sure people cricticized JC Chavez as well but look at all his accomplishments now. What if Jr. fights his first championship match when he has 50 fights and after that kicks ass just like Sr.?

If he wasn't Julio Cesar Chavez' son, nobody would be throwing crap at him.

JR is not doing anything too different than Sr. I mean I don't know if he is going to be 101-1 (roughly) like his father when he fought ODH. But he will have his big fights in due time.
Let's face it he is young and fragile. As much as I, like the rest of the people on this site, want to see him pour his guts out on the table with a high profile boxer, it's not gonna happen anytime soon. He si building himself up. You gotta remember after he goes for a title shot, he has got to defend it. How long before some lucky left hook nobody knocks his block off.

Having said that.. I think he is going to do well in the future. He has a hell of a left hook, and a pretty good chin from what I have seen.

That's what I hopefully expect. Boo hoo if he starts fighting champions and quality ranked opposition when he reaches 50 fights. What matters is that he kicks ass before and after that just like Sr. did and accomplished throughout his career.

Any of this guy's fights being on ppv is hillarious !! Hey but more power to him and his people, in these times if you can find more than 20 people to scrap duckets out of thier pockets to order amature friday night fight type matchups then go for it.....hell there are some pretty competetive fights at my daughters school by the jungle gym every now and again i should tape those and put them on ppv too.

I am also amazed that an amateur with around 30 fights challenging pros with more than 130 fights still charges for his fights and has people paying for them. More power to him . Not even his father could do that early in his career.
