Mexican Legends Slam Chavez Jr. - Demand He Retire From Boxing!
By Miguel Rivera
Several Mexican legends are fuming over last week's performance by former champion Julio Cesar Chavez Jr., and the boxer's post-fight antics.
Chavez Jr. was dominated over twelve rounds by Saul "Canelo" Alvarez at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas. Canelo won every single round on all three of the official scorecards.
The contest was completely one-sided. Chavez Jr. barely threw any offense and basically took punishment, round after round, until the final bell.
Fans at the sold-out T-Mobile Arena were very upset, as they expected an all-out war between two Mexican boxers on Cinco De Mayo weekend. And fans who spent as much as $70 to watch the fight on HBO pay-per-view were equally upset.
Then videos surfaced which showed Chavez Jr. in a drunken state, hanging out in a hotel room with several women who were dressed in revealing outfits. Afterwards it was revealed that several of items belonging to Chavez Jr. were robbed by those unknown women and their companions, including the boxer's $40,000 watch, his cell phone and his seven-figure check from the Canelo fight.
Mexican legend Jose Guadalupe Pintor, one of the most critical of Chavez Jr. since the Canelo fight was announced - said he was "the biggest fraud he had ever seen in boxing. "
"He is a young man who has nothing to do here [in boxing] and hangs on the father's name," Pintor said. "You can not talk about Julio's resume of his career, because he doesn't have one. What career does that young man have? In my life I had seen him fight, it is a shame for Mexican boxing , unfortunately the business side of things makes this happen, it should give him pain to disrespect the name of his father."
Another former world champion was Marcos Villasana , who described the performance of Chavez Jr. as shameful, in addition that the best thing the boxer could do is hang up the gloves.
"For me this was not a fight. If I was his father I would have told him to retire. Julio César, the father, was a fighter who always demanded respect, but the son... what a shame for the Chavez family. He is an irresponsible fighter that damages boxing, which is a serious sport. He does not have any responsibility and should retire," Villasana said.
Also disappointed by the fight were legendary Mexican boxers like Carlos Zárate , Humberto "Chiquita" González and Rafael Herrera.
"We were expecting a great fight and it was not like that, I was disappointed, but I saw it logically, I know what it costs to lose weight and the time it takes, three months was too little to get down. He came down in weight too fast. He is young, if he is dedicated then he still has a chance, but if he doesn't pay attention then he must retire," Zarate said.

Wilder's Manager: We're Aiming For Parker Unification in Summer
If the WBC heavyweight champion Deontay Wilder (38-0, 37 KOs) has his way, he would be fighting WBO champion Joseph Parker (23-0, 18 KOs) in a summer unification showdown.
Right now both fighters have mandatory defenses in front of them, but they could be allowed to bypass those fights if a deal is reached for a unification.
Parker has a mandatory due to Hughie Fury. They were set to fight last weekend, but Fury withdrew with a back injury and Parker instead won a decision over a late replacement. Wilder was ordered by the WBC to have a rematch with Bermane Stiverne - who Wilder easily beat for the title back in January 2015.
Wilder, who last saw action in February when he knocked out Gerald Washington, wants to fight as soon as possible with Parker.
“I want that fight as soon as possible. In July,” Wilder said to the Tuscaloosa News. “I’m looking to come back in July so hopefully we can get a date set in July to get this unification started. It’s almost like a tournament a little bit. It makes it interesting for the fans.
“That’s the next step. I hope my team and (Parker’s) team can come together and we can agree on some terms and lets get this unification going already.”
According to Wilder's co-manager, the negotiations with Parker's team is ongoing and they hope to reach an agreement for a date in July or August.
“I think everybody wants unification,” said Jay Deas, Wilder’s co-manager and trainer. “It’s always a thing where unification trumps a mandatory. We’re aiming for Joseph Parker. We would love to fight Joseph Parker in July or August. We’ll go wherever we have to go. I think Joseph Parker wants the same thing.
“I think negotiations are ongoing, and I think everybody involved wants it to happen. It’s really a matter of finding the right network and finding the right venue and finding the right date and making sure all that matches up. Because TV has a schedule, of course arenas are filled up with every conceivable sport and musical act, so it’s not easy to find a date, especially a Saturday. That has to fit and it has to be within the right time frame because it’s no good if we find out that Vegas has an opening eight months from now. That’s no good. We have to find the right combination of those things.”

i thought homie was in canada, serbia or sum shyt like that but, it's damn may and snowing in nebraska
i couldn't deal with that shyt. i do miss running in the snow/cold weather though.that's the other charlo, jermell. the one that's supposed to fight heiland hasn't fought since december and just moved up to 160. it's crazy in this era of boxing, never before have i seen guys in they prime and 20's fight like 1 or 2 times a year. hate to say this but, i think some of these guys who are with AL need to sign with a promoter. as much business al does with dibella, i really don't why see some of these guys don't sign with lou. shyt, even wilder signed to Lou.

Yall silly
Weren't you a J Rock fan?
I liked J Rock....but what's wrong in speaking the truth about him
Losing via a 1 punch, counter uppercut, is cause for concern...especially vs the 1st big puncher of your career. Then consider he was knocked down 2x prior, including once with a jab, and it goes
when asking yourself if J Rock passed the chin test
