Julio César Chávez Carrasco

Julio César Chávez Carrasco, also known as Julio César Chávez Jr., is a Mexican professional boxer and the son of legendary boxer Julio César Chávez. He has gained notoriety not only for his boxing career, which includes multiple championship titles, but also for his recent legal troubles. In January 2023, he was issued an arrest warrant in connection with investigations into organized crime activities linked to 'Los Chapitos,' a faction of the Sinaloa Cartel. Chávez Jr. was detained in the United States and later deported to Mexico, where he faced accusations of involvement in arms trafficking and organized crime. Despite the serious nature of the charges, a judge granted his release, citing insufficient evidence for preventive detention.
