Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. vs. Bryan Vera

Rob Anthony, Contributing Writer

Chavez Jr. wins by throwing his weight around, literally. He will stop Vera in Round 9.

Prediction: Chavez Jr.

 

Gabe Rivas, Contributing Writer

Chavez Jr. has the privilege of being able to set his own rules and fight at the weight he chooses. He also has shown that he has no problem cutting more than twenty pounds and gaining most of it back for a fight. I have Chavez Jr. winning because he has used his boxing-political sway to give him advantages.

Prediction: Chavez Jr.

 

Alex Burgos, Editor in Chief

The buildup to this fight has been less than stellar for JCC Jr. A few delays, cuts, and the latest in a string of weight problems really has me questioning what Chavez Jr. is really doing. Does he want to be a boxer or not? Regardless, I think he has enough talent—even if he’s not physically in shape—to beat a guy like Vera. Chavez Jr. by TKO 8.

Prediction: Chavez Jr.
