Julio Cesar Chavez Jr

[/quote}You know, I totally understand you. I was hoping the same for Cotto. I saw his pampered record and how people totally worshipped him in this forum to the point of even making threads of him just walking in Las Vegas, about his fashion, etc. Until he finally faced a fighter with a pulse who totally beat him to a pulp. First champion he faced in his prime and the results were pretty bad. [/quote]

First, why are you defending Chavez Jr. with such veracity? Second, are you comparing Cotto to Chavez Jr.? That is simply wrong. Within your comparison, I assume you are referring to Cotto's single loss to Margarito when you say, "Until he finally faced a fighter with a pulse who totally beat him to a pulp." Cotto had faced many top ten Welter weights before fighting Margarito: Malignaggi, Quintana, Gomez, Mosley, and Judah...before fighting Margarito. Chavez's biggest opponent to date: Matt Fanda. Scoreboard.

More power to him if he can sell PPV's to Mexican fans because of his father's name. But, I don't know many knowledgeable fight fans that would ever willingly buy one. Admittedly, I went to his last fight in Vegas, but I went to see Nonito Donaire, Vanes Martirosyan, and Lamont Peterson. After watching Vanes and Chavez on the same card: Vanes would tear him up.
