this kind of reminds me of Chavez jr against Vanda. he looked terrible and got a gift the first time around and won convincingly in the rematch.
Vera is a B level club fighter. that's not a knock against him it's just what he is. he's a tough guy but doesn't have elite level talent. he fought his best against Chavez's worst and the fight was still "close". if Chavez decides to put a couple of puncher together it'll be over for Vera.
Ward Chavez seems like the most likely fight down the line but I could see Froch Chavez if Froch beats Groves. a Chavez fight might even get Kessler out to fight.
Chavez Jr. needs to convincingly TKO Vera this time around to get his credibility back.
I don't think so. Chavez was favored to beat Vera last time and Chavez is still favored to beat him this time. I think the outcome of the first fight was more what Chavez wasn't doing then what Vera was doing. As much as I respect Vera I still think overall he's a level below Chavez and motivated Chavez UD or KOs Vera.

I think Chavez will come in better shape for this fight and perform better too. Maybe KO vera, but i'll go with another decision... depends on how many punches he throws
