I still think Jr is overmatched against Martinez and I think the only reason he agreed to this fight is for money and pride. (my personal opinion is that SR forced him to fight S-Mart out of pure pride).

If it's true that he's missing training sessions, he's already checked-out mentally and probably hopes to simply survive this fight with his brain intact before moving on to 168 or 175.
Yeah his last 3 fights are the only decent opponents i can think of for him. I also think he's waay overmatched. Never been a huge fan of chavez jr, i really don't like how he relies on being way bigger than his opponents. After this he should move to light heavy. I can't wait for martinez to destroy him so his annoying fans will shut up.

Man, if he's seriously missing training sessions(and it's not just a ploy to make martinez think he's not ready), he's in serious trouble. Martinez is going to hurt this kid. And i'm gonnna enjoy watching it.

I don't dislike JR, but I've become a big fan of Sergio's so I really hope he puts on a good show here.

One thing that kind of disturbs me is all the information/innuendo about JR failing drug tests or ducking them.
And it seems that most of these accusations have come during his last 3 fights and against his stiffest competition.

I was mad at Floyd for forcing fighters to Olympic style testing, but now I'm in total agreement (note: I was only ticked because I thought he used that as an excuse to duck fighters).
This is a very dangerous sport if fighters are cheating with loaded gloves or bodies.

Man, is it tomorrow night yet?? Can't wait for this fight!

Me too, even though he beat my number one guy (Pavlik).

Finally caught up on all the 24/7's. I know Freddie Roach just wants one training camp where there is no drama. I know HBO likes to create storylines, and they gave Junior the persona of a undiscipline fighter. I'm pumped for tomorrow night though, still think Junior will win.

Macklin is a really good fighter.

Nice-Sergio gave props to Pavlik's "brutal power".

I wanted to get this fight... but sleeping and feeling like crap changed my mind.

Is Junior just getting outclassed? I like both fighters but wanted Junior to pull off an upset.
