Could the biggest fight in Mexican boxing land in Las Vegas? Top Rank's CEO Bob Arum says a possible fight between Mexican rivals Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. and Saul "Canelo" Alvarez could take place in the month of March, instead of April, and at 158-pounds, which is one pound above the proposed catch-weight of 157. Arum is still discussing the possibility of such a fight with Alvarez's promoter, Richard Schaefer of Golden Boy Promotions.
Chavez, the WBC middleweight champion, would go down by two pounds and Alvarez, the WBC champion at 154, would come up by four pounds
"The fight is going to be agreed upon for 158 pounds," said Arum, who hopes to reach an agreement in the coming weeks. "but will be in March at a Las Vegas casino.

Zanfer Box, Jr's Mexican promoter also says its a done deal for next March
Wonder which WBC strap will be on the line? 154 or 160?
FERNANDO Beltrán, promotor de Julio César Chávez Júnior, declaró ayer en su visita al DF que: "Es un hecho para marzo de 2012 la pelea entre el Júnior y Saúl 'Canelo' Álvarez".
Y agregó sobre la esperada contienda entre los dos campeones del mundo: "Solamente falta que se diga la fecha y el sitio, pero será en marzo, posiblemente en Las Vegas".
Beltrán asentó también que combatirán en peso pactado: en 158 libras

If the fight is at 158 then it can only be for Chavez's strap.

This fight has to happen now! because Angulo will soon need his madatory shot at Canelo and Martinez will be looking for his title back from Chavez. Both guys will get their asses handed to them soon. BTW this fight should happen in Mexico DF.

Come on. You think the WBC will allow that? They'll make Canelo "Super Champ" or some shit, and the same for Bum Jr when he ducks Martinez.

After watching Canelo last Saturday, theres no doubt in my mind Angulo blows him out.GrantZilla wrote:Diego408 wrote:This fight has to happen now! because Angulo will soon need his madatory shot at Canelo and Martinez will be looking for his title back from Chavez.

Cintron outboxed him
Canelo would counter Angulo all day
Canelo told Mexican press he was trying to bite Flod's style and used Gomez to practice it lol

I say it a even fight. Cintron at best barely won. I asure you that GBP will keep El Perro away from Canelo for a few years. They arent as confident as you are.gomez1012 wrote:Cintron outboxed him

It looks like they want to get rid of Kirkland by putting him against Angulo already.

Im sure they get it done
Be a HUGE fight in Mexico and they know Angulo is a limited brawler
Cintron outboxed and so did Julio for the majority of their fight

Angulo is a limited brawler, but I'm not sold on Canelo's chin.

Hes limited, but Canelo wont stand a chance against him, well at least not yet. Angulo is still one of the most dangerous guys at Jr Middle, next to Lara. Lara could possibly beat both guys.GrantZilla wrote:Angulo is a limited brawler, but I'm not sold on Canelo's chin.

If Jose Cotto can ring your bell, what's Angulo going to do?

Can Chavez Jr make 158? He was 160 and then weighed over 180 in the ring when he won the belt. That is the definition of struggling to make weight.
