After a three and a half month stoppage, the drawings for the National Lottery of Mexico will resume on July 12 with a special tribute to the legendary boxing world champion Julio César Chavez with a total prize of 24 million pesos (close to a million dollars).
The ticket has the image of Chavez in addition to the images of the logo of the World Boxing Council and a message saying “J.C. Chávez, Happy Birthday Champion!” Chavez (107-6-2, 85 KOs) will turn 58 on July 12.
24 Million pesos is actually 1,053,000.00, which isn’t close bu a bit more:)
Chavez has some cool bragging rights now. He can say his face has been on a lottery ticket. Not too many folks can say that!
Mexican fighters get the best treatment. great life to be Mexican champion.
