Chavez Jr. set to face unbeaten fighter

Julio César Chávez Jr will be returning on the September 25 card in Tijuana featuring the exhibition between his father, “el Gran Campeón Mexicano” Julio César Chávez against Jorge “Travieso” Arce. Junior was originally slated for an exhibition fight also, but he will now have an official fight against an undefeated boxer who publicly challenged him.

Chávez Jr. (51-4-1, 33 KOs) will face Mario Abel Cázares (12-0, 6 KOs) in a ten-rounder at light heavyweight. Both hail from the city of Culiacán, Sinaloa.

  • Unfortunately, this kid is a prime example of “too much, too fast, too easy” because of his great HOF dad. Maybe he will finally walk the straight line and generate the “blood, sweat and tears” as a professional fighter to proudly uphold his last name in the boxing world.

    • Not sure if you mean his earlier fights when you mention “too easy” but the kid only had 2 amateur fights so He had to get experience. By the time he got to “too much” the fans where screaming for him to face better opposition because he was giving too little. Not sure if it was “too easy”, he still had to get in the ring and fight against other pro fighters. And thats never “too easy”

      • NJ Boxing: I’ve heard that as well that Chavez only had a couple of fights as an ammy. That isn’t correct. He had more ammy fights than that. I’m not saying he had a ton of them but he definitely had more than two. Mexico ammy bouts are not as regulated and sanctioned as they are here. Kinda like the old school “Smoker events” that we used to have. When I started boxing, I fought a grip of unsanctioned “smoker” fights. Then i finally was registered thru USA boxing. According to USA boxing I had only 7 ammy fights when in reality i had roughly 47 fights. Just an FYI

      • The combined record of his first 11 “pro” fights. 11wins 35 losses and 1 draw. I think that is pretty easy.

  • Last I recall, Chavez basically quit on his stool during a fight. Sad, give it up! The gig is on Chavez.

    • Right Scoobs…. He has definitely ruined his dads name.. that the horrible part!!

  • What’s the over/under for how many rounds before Chavez Jr. quits on his stool?

  • The most underperforming Mexican fighter in history. He was given everything. Has the biggest name is Mexican history behind him and he throws it away so he can get fat, eat bowls of cereral in his drawls and smoke weed. His dad is embarrased of him I don’t care what anyone says.

  • He won’t make weight. He will come in about 7 pounds heavy pay a fine and have a 20 pound advantage by fight time.
