Julio Cesar Chavez gives his son tips before a bout. ( Julio Cesar Chavez jr., Oscar De La Hoya, Floyd Mayweather, Manny Pacquiao, Sergio Martinez, Canelo Alvarez, Juan Manuel Marquez )
JC was teaching his son a lesson. He, in essence, was saying," Son, how can I be more confident in you knocking out your opponent than you are? How can I be willing to give the bookies $5000 when you aren't confident that you can take this man apart inside 6 minutes ? Chickens don't go to war. The same kind of bet was offered to Sr in his title defense against Mayweather . Sr said DOUBLE IT! That's the difference. JC's self- belief teetered on the line of arrogance.
He may or may not have been "high as fuck" on coke, but , regardless, every bit of advise he gave his son was dead on and making the bet he was trying to get his son to have some fire in his belly, to come out hungry, and with bad intentions and as if he had something to lose. Jr has always been a rich kid, and never had to worry about LOSING anything. Sr. knew that and knows it to this day.
Thats like great advise coming from a father and hall of fame boxer. Chavez jr said he will not have his dad in his training camps anymore. Smh.. its funny how gis father talked abouy him gaining all that gain back on fight night.nothing has changed I see.
if you pay attention he is always giving him good advice, but the kid is too spoiled. Before the Martinez fight he was constantly giving him advice, but he doesn't pay attention.
