Chavez Trains Hard

"This is the most important fight of my life.
Don King has promised me a Rolls Royce if I beat Pernell and I've already told him I want a white one with a soft top."
Chavez told the listening media that his training camp was the hardest he'd done in years.
Chavez who faces Pernell Whitaker on September 10th in the biggest fight in sport was very serious, especially when pressed on the pound-for-pound matter.
"I don't think there is any such thing as the best fighter in the world."
