Julio C\u00e9sar Ch\u00e1vez Jr., renowned Mexican boxer and former middleweight world champion, is at the center of a controversy after being detained in the United States. An investigation by the Attorney General’s Office (FGR) of Mexico reveals shocking accusations.<\/p>\n
According to the information obtained, Ch\u00e1vez Jr. would have acted as a “henchman” for N\u00e9stor Ernesto P\u00e9rez Salas, known as ‘el Nini’, one of the leaders of the Sinaloa Cartel. The investigation suggests that ‘el Nini’ ordered the boxer to hit his subordinates for making mistakes.<\/p>\n
The prosecution’s accusation is based on phone recordings and immigration records shared by the United States. Ch\u00e1vez Jr.’s arrest occurred after he was found driving under the influence of alcohol.<\/p>\n
In November 2019, the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) filed a complaint for arms trafficking with the Mexican Prosecutor’s Office.<\/p>\n
The Specialized Prosecutor’s Office for Organized Crime intervened in suspects’ phones between December 2021 and June 2022. During this period, it was revealed that a cartel member took a girlfriend to a safe house where kidnapped people and weapons were present. There, ‘el Nini’ allegedly ordered a subordinate to be hung like a punching bag for Ch\u00e1vez Jr. to hit.<\/p>\n
Ch\u00e1vez Jr., 39, was arrested in the United States and will be deported to Mexico. The U.S. government accuses him of having ties to the Sinaloa Cartel and of not having the necessary documents to reside legally in the country.<\/p>\n
Ch\u00e1vez Jr. legally entered the United States in August 2023 with a visa valid until February 2024. After his visa expired, he applied for permanent residency, claiming to be married to a U.S. citizen. His partner is also linked to the Sinaloa Cartel, as she had a relationship with a deceased son of Joaqu\u00edn ‘el Chapo’ Guzm\u00e1n.<\/p>\n
Despite being declared “a serious threat to public safety” in December 2024, U.S. authorities initially took no action. However, after “multiple fraudulent statements” in his residency application, deportation proceedings were initiated.<\/p>\n
Ch\u00e1vez Jr.’s detention occurred after he lost a fight against the YouTuber Jake Paul in Anaheim.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
