    I think a lot of it is that he is still very young. He is questioning his own durability. After he rests a couple weeks he will get the drive back again.

    He has some very nice tools to work with and they only need to tighten things up with him. He throws very nice and accurate inside punches, but needs to learn how to parry shots coming at him.

    The Stamina issues are the easiest to overcome. Yes he is still a work in progress but some tough hard training and sparring, will help him quite a bit.

    I think he needs to get away from his fathers influence, perhaps change trainers also to give him a fresh way of thinking.

    Maybe his heart isn't in it, or he just doesn't have the goods.Seems to me he's just doing it because he's expected to he always talks about his dad and how great he was all the time.

    It's something... You don't just decide to quit after a win of all things...

    That could be it, but I would not label him yet. I think he will get better from that tough fight though. I mean he could barely stand up the last two rounds, but did it and took his licks. I mean he was ready to collapse, but hung in there and toughed it out.

    I think he is just too young, and feels too much pressure on him.

    No amateur background experience, very young, and son of a legend with tremendous pressure to knock out everyone and then get booed is a very tough thing to absorb. A previous post had it right "he needs to fight for himself ,not the fans", plus a drunk Mexican crowd can get very rowdy and unforgiving because that is what that crowd wants, a K.O. at every fight. He did very good considering his background and he has the tools to be great, those trainers he has need to be replaced. Mexican trainers are notorious for being conservative and arrogant, also with an all guns blazing attitude that hurt their fighters. Just look at Eric Morales, his father was overbearing and arrogant feeding him improper advice that Eric at one point parted ways with his father/trainer. Chavez Jr. should start thinking about the next fight and forget the last fight, a rematch would be beautiful that I could see Chavez Jr. knocking out Vanda. But he needs to regroup and do away with all that posse that feed him bullshit and bad advice. Omar Chavez(younger brother) is a much better fighter than his father or brother, keep an eye for him because the kid has power and skills that are amazing.

    Chavez Jr. sounds like a bit of a sensitive boy to me. Would love to see what he says after someone actually beats him by decision or knocks him out cold. His reaction would be more cringe worthy than watching Cintron in 05'

    Retire; good riddance. I'm not in any hurry to watch him fight 49 more taxi drivers before he decides to step up in class. And I certainly don't want to listen to pity parties during those 49 fights.

    All Mexican parent are overprotective, but this has to come to a peaceful[if possible] end. Boxing is not the sport to be overprotective if you want your kids to become world champions. Iv'e been saying for some years now that Jr. needed to test the waters and join other camps, he deserves to make a name for himself. His paps would back him eventually, but he needs to prove he has a backbone or else the booos will continue.

    He could test the waters against James Kirkland, Chavez jr has more fights this should be a fair fight and will answer a lot of questions.

    How about if after those 49 fights he accomplishes as much as his dad? Lots of people cry about Chavez padding up his resume but everybody forgets all the things he accomplished in the ring . If Chavez started loosing after padding up his record then, yeah, I would understand why people would talk about his record but just look at all his accomplishments. Not bad, not bad at all.

    This site has suddenly become full of whiners.....give Chavez a break! Is he or is he not a great fighter? JC was great, JC Jr. deserves some time to season he's 22 fucking years old and had very little if any amateur background....give the kid a break!
