Former WBC middleweight champion Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. recently faced a setback after losing to Jake Paul in a celebrity boxing match. At 39 years old, the son of iconic three-division world champion Julio Cesar Chavez is now confronting more pressing issues. Just three days post-fight, on July 2, Chavez Jr. was detained by ICE in Studio City, California. Allegations against him suggest ties to the Sinaloa Cartel, with an active arrest warrant in Mexico since 2023. Reports from the Mexican Attorney General indicate that Chavez Jr. was instructed by cartel leader Nestor Isidro Perez Salas to physically confront drug traffickers failing in their duties. There's a push from the Mexican president for Chavez Jr. to return to Mexico to face charges. Chavez Jr. was taken into custody for overstaying a six-month tourist visa and allegedly providing false statements regarding his spouse, Frida Munoz, a U.S. citizen related to infamous cartel figure Joaquin “El Chapo” Guzman.
