The news was confirmed by official sources and by the Mexican president, Claudia Sheinbaum.\n\nCh\u00e1vez Jr. was handed over to the authorities and held in a prison on the outskirts of Hermosillo, Sonora. President Sheinbaum confirmed the deportation in her daily press conference, indicating that she was informed about his arrival in Mexico.\n\nThe 39-year-old boxer faces an arrest warrant in Mexico for alleged crimes of arms and drug trafficking, as well as alleged links to the Sinaloa Cartel. Mexico&#8217;s Attorney General, Alejandro Gertz Manero, reported that the investigation against Ch\u00e1vez Jr. began in 2019.\n\nThe arrest in the United States occurred on July 3, a few days after his fight with Jake Paul in California.\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>I hope the boxer is deported so he can face the charges.<\/p><cite>Claudia Sheinbaum<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\nJulio C\u00e9sar Ch\u00e1vez, father of the boxer and Mexican boxing legend, defended his son after the arrest, but has not made public statements since the deportation.\n\nThroughout his career, Ch\u00e1vez Jr. has battled addiction issues, which have affected his performance in boxing. He has faced suspensions and criticism for his lack of commitment to the sport.\n\nIn 2011, Ch\u00e1vez Jr. won the WBC middleweight title and defended it three times. He faced great figures like Canelo \u00c1lvarez and Sergio Mart\u00ednez, losing to both.\n\nIn 2012, he was convicted of drunk driving in Los Angeles and sentenced to 13 days in jail. In January 2024, he was arrested on weapons-related charges, being released on bail and with the condition of entering an addiction treatment center. The case is still pending.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Julio C\u00e9sar Ch\u00e1vez Jr. deported to Mexico for alleged links to organized crime Boxer Julio C\u00e9sar Ch\u00e1vez Jr. has been deported to Mexico after being arrested in the United States for overstaying his visa and lying on his residency card application.
