Our first question comes from Tony T. who asks:
Gerry, I saw a picture of Canelo Alvarez and Julio Chavez Jr. standing side by side, and to me, Chavez looks a lot bigger than Alvarez. Word is that Chavez plans on entering the ring at about 180 lbs. Doesn’t that give him a huge advantage?
Our next question comes from Jimmy D. who asks:
Gerry, although Mayweather denies it, rumors persist that he will eventually be fighting Connor McGregor. Do you have the inside scoop on this?
