Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. Eyes Return To Roach, Against Gabe Rosado - Boxing News



When fighters bounce back and forth between trainers, it usually means it's about to be over for them as a top fighter.



Also, Alfredo Angulo or Gabriel Rosado?:dahell:



Those are Middleweights, and you are a Light Heavyweight moving back down to Super Middleweight....why are you looking Middleweights?:what:
Only fight he has ever fought with an opponent truly above MW was Fonfara and he got :deadmanny:.

In the past I have dug into his KO% at MW and it wasn't that good. He was a bully who used his size as an advantage. We need to see him against guys who are his own size to really judge anything about him. Rosado and Angulo are borderline MW's, more like tween JMW-MW's. I can't take any of his fights seriously until he fights a guy at 168 who has a history of fighting at 168.

Not saying he faked an injury, just interesting how the second (maybe hardest) fight of his career vs. Jack gets cancelled and then he schedules a shot fighter from 1.5 weight divisions below him.

Exactly.

Andrade & Lara have been calling out lil g for a while now saying they would fight him at 160. People claim they haven't earned a shot against lil g (which is still a huge cop out to me whenever any starts saying people need to "earn a shot")
why should he fight smaller guys not in his division?

Because the Champions at Middleweight nor any of the UK Middleweights don't want to fight him yet, and a PBC fighter like Jacobs/Quillin wont be allowed on HBO anytime soon, so a lil g vs Demetrius Andrade or Erislandy Lara fight is a better matchup than watching lil g vs Willie Monroe Jr, Dominic Wade, Hassan N'Dam, or Avtandil Khurtsidze.

Would rather them fight fall 2017 at 160.

Canelo next two fights could be Lemuiex and whoever and GGG can fight Jacobs then BJS.

GGG gets to further his quest to unify while enhancing his shaky resume and Canelo gets adjusted to 160. It's a win-win
