At the facilities of the Mexican TV network ?TV Azteca? took place the last presser of the bout between WBC middleweight champion Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. and the Diamond champion Sergio ?Maravilla? Martinez next September 15 at the Thomas & Mack Center in Las Vegas, Nevada.
The president of the WBC Jose Sulaiman said that this bout is long waited by the fans as it was the fight between Ali and Joe Frazier or Julio Cesar Chavez vs ?Macho? Camacho.
?Both boxers are great, they are the best in boxing and this rivalry is beyond boxing, so we can expect to see a great fight next September 15 where they will fight to show who the best boxer is? ?Jose Sulaiman
After having received a ?milk bottle? from Martinez, Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. said that he?s in the best moment of his career willing to keep winning and writing his own story.
?I?m no rookie fighter, I born with boxing running through my veins and though I respect and admit Sergio is a great boxer, on September 15 he will have to find a place to hide because of the great shame he will have, that day he will know who the real middleweight champion is? Julio said.
In the other corner WBC Diamond champion said that the bout will end before the tenth round because that night he will KO Chavez, he said that that night Julio will know what it is to face a true boxer that has earn everything with sweat and sacrifice.
This match was missing something and that was the interaction of the legend, Julio Cesar Chavez Sr. who said that Mexicans know how to box and his son will teach Maravilla how to do it.
To conclude the presser some mariachis sang the ?Ma?anitas? to Julio Sr. as celebration of his 50th birthday.
