What’s at Stake
For Paul, this is a real upgrade in competition. Chavez Jr. has 62 pro fights under his belt and even captured a world title, though it seems like his prime days are in the rearview mirror. If Paul wins, he might get a shot at the cruiserweight title, and WBC president Mauricio Sulaiman hinted that the winner could be in line for a ranking.
Chavez Jr. really needs this win to get his career back on track after only fighting once in the last three and a half years. Julio Cesar Chavez Jr., the son of the famous Mexican boxing legend, has said he’ll hang up his gloves for free if he doesn’t win, adding some extra drama to an already interesting fight.
Expect sparks to fly when youth meets experience in Anaheim. Whether you’re rooting for Paul or the former champ, don’t miss out on what could be a big moment for both fighters’ careers.
