    when you put on so much weight in one day, how does that affect your body? Idk if Martinez was just really quick or Chavez was just really slow from all that weight.

    Both fighters left it all out. Both had something to prove and have a ton of heart

    You have to be smart. If you are up 10-2 just run. Better to win smart than lose.

    Both fighters hugging. Sergio giving props to Chavez for giving him more than expected and that he had a lot of heart. Could do rematch.

    Chavez Jr. Happy with fight but sad he couldn't finish. Wants rematch

    Dramatic ending to the Chavez - Martinez fight but Showtime had in all the better fights; Canelo is a badass.

    When you have the best fight of the year you have the best event period.

    168 is Ward territory. Chavez has no shot at Ward whatsoever.

    I need to see either Martinez or Canelo get a shot at Mayweather.

    Martinez would get destroyed. Canelo has more of a chance.

    can Chavez get some respect now? He took a fight people said he would not. He went the distance with arguably the 3rd best fighter in the world and almost scored a dramatic finish. To compare, Canelo has not fought anyone near the calibre of Martinez.

    Mayweather vs. Canelo will be announced soon, and right after that... win, lose, or draw... Mayweather will have 1 fight at 160 againist Sergio( llike he promised him)

    Thats whats its looking like, the superfight wont happen

    At this point I'd be more than happy if we got those fights. I've given up on Floyd v Pac.

    I don't think Mayweather can beat Canelo, the guy has too much power and too much skill. Mayweather's defense is on the decline. Nobody can beat canelo at this point.

    agreed, plus the jail stint as well

    Mayweather isnt fighting at 147 ever again, if the superfight is gonna happen its gonna happen at 154. But Pac has never fought at that weight(technically)
