Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. wants to fight the very best after he has dealt with Jake Paul.
The former WBC middleweight champion’s career has taken a massive downturn in recent years, but he believes beating Jake Paul on June 28 will propel him back into the world title mix.
The recent form of Julio Cesar Chavez Jr.
Nothing about Julio Cesar Chavez Jr.’s recent record suggests he can still compete at the top.
The reality is that the Mexican star hasn’t won at world level for more than a decade.
Canelo Alvarez won every round when they fought in May 2017, and things have only gotten worse since then.
Chavez Jr.’s famous father told him to retire after an embarrassing loss to faded UFC legend Anderson Silva in 2021.
Back-to-back wins since then have presented the former champion with the chance to face Paul.
However, he’s a pretty heavy underdog heading into a fight with the ex-Disney actor, who only took up boxing in 2020.
It remains to be seen if he can get by someone like Paul, never mind four of the best boxers currently competing.
