Mexican legend Julio Cesar Chavez Sr. didn't pull any punches when it came to analyzing his son's performance on Saturday against Canelo Alvarez. Putting it as simply as possible, Chavez explained his mindset, "I am very disappointed."
In their pay-per-view showdown from Las Vegas, Alvarez (49-1-1, 34 KOs) pitched a shutout on all three scorecards against a lifeless and uninterested Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. (50-3-1, 32 KOs). Chavez's Hall of Fame father broke down the match Monday on ESPN Deportes, refusing to use the fact that Chavez Jr. was forced to cut down to the 164.5-pound catchweight as an excuse.
"No, no, no, no. Definitively no,
" Chavez Sr. said about the weight's impact. "It's true, there is a sacrifice and everything
, but I think here Julio lacked that thing that his father had more than enough of.
"
That "thing" in question was heart, and Chavez Sr. was most upset with his son for not once emptying the tank and attacking Alvarez while being willing to potentially go out on his sword.
"Yes, that's the truth. He was too much of a conformist," Chavez Sr. said. "I was asking him to throw more punches
That he gift me a f------ round throwing punches
"
Chavez Sr. went on to admit he would have respected his son more for getting knocked out by Alvarez than losing in such a passive manner.
"When you are in the ring and you feel that your body is not responding, that you aren't doing any damage
," he said. "And that's what Julio did, he tried to survive and that Canelo didn't knock him out in an embarrassing way
. That was Julio's fight. His body was not responding; he could not ask anymore of his body.

Canelo dug the hole....Nacho Beristain closed the casket....and Julio Cesar Chavez Sr just lowered him into the ground

Link?
He's not going to do that.
Hearn already has his next year mapped out already: Klitschko rematch at the end of this year, and Fury in April 2018.
For some reason they are going around Wilder......even though that's the #1 fight at HW we want to see, Wilder is available, has a Championship, is a big money fight, and Wilder is a bum. Ironically, they dropped out of the #2 WBC position to jump on the Charles Martin Championship fight with no hesitation bc of the same reasons I listed above.
[VIDEO] ANTHONY JOSHUA REACTS TO DEONTAY WILDER FACING GERALD WASHINGTON: "WHAT'S YOUR OPINION"
By Jose "OnFire" Aguirre | January 31, 2017
"If the opportunity to fight someone like Wilder or anyone like that in America, I'll definitely jump at it...it all comes out when you need it...it's like a test...the Deontay fight, for instance, that may happen a couple years down the line," stated heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua, who shared his thoughts on a future clash with fellow heavyweight champion Deontay Wilder. Check it out!
Ohhh
Hopefully this fight will happen while Wilder is still in his physical prime. He's already 31. Unless that's the plan all along from Hearn and Joshua

ESPN was like "Nah you have to pay for yourself" 
Chavez Jr. Ready: Bring on Daniel Jacobs at 168, He Beat Golovkin!
By Miguel Rivera
Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. (50-3-1, 32 KOs) is not even think about the possibility of retirement.
He is motivated to return to the ring and plans to compete at 168 pounds. He wants to prove that it was the weight loss that affected him against Canelo Alvarez last weekend in Las Vegas. Chavez Jr. was dominated over twelve rounds at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.
And Daniel Jacobs (32-2-, 29 KOs) is now the top candidate that Chavez Jr. wants to face in September or October.
Chavez Jr. ruled out the theory of his trainer, Nacho Beristain, who says a per-fight massage affected the Mexican fighter and left him physically spent in the fight.
Jacobs was in action back in March, when he lost a close twelve round decision to Gennady Golovkin, who defends his middleweight titles against Canelo on September 16th. Jacobs ability to last the distance derailed Golovkin's 23 fight knockout streak.
"Nacho says it was the massage, I think it was weight and inactivity, we needed to work faster. I felt in good condition but very tired and without strength. I had never felt like this, I took the fight at 164 pounds for the opportunity, but I want to show them that at 168 pounds I can be different," said Chavez Jr. to ESPN Deportes.
"I think Jacobs beat Gennady Golovkin, so it would be a good fight, to beat him and win another fight could land me the winner of Canelo and Golovkin, I know things could be better under other conditions. I think [Jacobs] beat GGG and at 168 pounds I want to prove that it's my weight, that Saturday was a bad night, they have to understand that I made a sacrifice, it was a million dollars penalty [for every pound over the contract limit] and they (Canelo and Golden Boy) knew what it was going to cost me and they knew that I would leave everything on the scale. I risked it and it was difficult."
