you have to laugh how they make a point of Groves losing (to Jack) and him not making weight, shame they're not so strict on those things with their golden boy Chavez Jr

True. I recently watched the Maravilla documentary on NetFlix and the favouritism shown to Chavez by the WBC was shameful.

Was a good doc. Really enjoyed it. Was the gaffer at the WBC not Chavez's godfather? I liked how Lou DiBella was going off his nut at their convention.
