Let's run through Bob Arum's latest idea -- pitting Hall of Fame fighters Roberto Duran and Julio Cesar Chavez Sr. against one another in a two round exhibition match. Yes, you read that right. The proposed match would appear on the July 23rd PPV card expected to be headlined by Terence Crawford and Viktor Postol.
Top Rank has already contacted the Nevada State Athletic Commission to see if they could get such a match approved. Although a few details regarding the proposed fight still needs to be ironed out before the commission would approve the idea (like the fight weight), they are said to be considering it. Arum says that both fighters would use head gear and 16oz gloves for the match.
