Chavez would get annihilated if he ever stepped foot in the ring with RING champ Sergio Martinez, which is why his promoter, Bob Arum of Top Rank, will never make that fight.

That’s OK. Fans already know that Martinez is the king of the 160-pound division. What Chavez proved on Saturday is that he’s a real contender who can likely compete with any middleweight not named Martinez.

we will see where he goes from here.

i've always viewed chavez jr. as a bit of a sideshow, but he did display some real skills in the manfredo fight.

given his total lack of an amateur career and his continued progress in the pro ranks i'd say he does have the potential to be a very good (if not great) fighter.....but he still isn't anywhere close to being there at this stage of his career.

if the likes of martinez had been hitting chavez with those combinations in the 3rd (or was it 4th?) round i seriously doubt if chavez could have survived.

a chavez jr. vs alvarez fight seems all but inevitable right now.....let's just pray that top rank doesn't sit on it until it's no longer a attractive option like what happened with juanma and gamboa.

[open mind]

bullshit "championship" fights like this brazenly display (almost) all that is wrong with boxing.
