HURRAH! Julio Cesar Chavez at WBC Convention in Tashkent Uzbekistan
The most important boxing event of the year, the 2023 World Boxing Council annual Convention will be held in Tashkent, Uzbekistan, 12-17 November and El Gran Campeon is going to be there!
Wonderful news as JC is an icon the world over. A Superstar Champion of Champions. A global favorite of the fans for a fabulous fabled career which has become a legend. Julio is now a perceptive, expert boxing commentator, with flair, panache, discernment and a wealth of knowledge plus a marvelous sense of humor.
Born in Obregon, Sonora, Mexico, but brought up in Culican, Sinaloa he went on to become the greatest Mexican fighter of all time. He’s nicknamed El Gran Campeon Mexicano.
Julio reached one hundred fights with only two losses. Nothing surpasses the awesome and titanic drama of that classic, which unfolded and unfurled against Meldrick Taylor, in March 1990, where, starring defeat in the face, Julio refused to be downcast, dug deep and achieved a super nova bolt of lighting finale. With a supreme final effort, which eludes mere mortals, in the dying embers, Julio defiantly fought with the pride of a lion, battering Taylor, cornering him, and then delivering a crushing overhead right to drop him. A victory worthy of a phoenix rising from the ashes.
Julio César Chavez was the only boxer in history to pack the huge Azteca Stadium from basement to rafters, with a record 136,274 fans. It was the fitting backdrop to the classic clash versus Greg Haugen, which earned a Green and Gold star in the Guinness Book of Records pages.
With twenty one illustrious years as a professional, JC shaped, formed, built and reinforced with a record of 107 fights won, 86 of them by knockout, 6 losses and only 2 draws. World champion in the super-feather, light, and superlight divisions. In addition, he fought a world record of 37 world title fights. A history maker!
The organizers and people of Uzbekistan are thrilled, proud and honored to welcome the entire WBC family and show the world that it is a fantastic and hospitable country ready and enthusiastic to host a memorable extravaganza. Absolutely marvelous that JC Chavez will be a Guest of Honor.
