PLEASE EDUCATE ME: Can Chavez, Jr Just Go Fight In Mexico?

Chavez banned for a year???lol, yea right that spoiled lil brat will probably get a pound delivered to him along with a WBC pothead belt

He just had low thc levels. You can take anabolic steroids and get away with it with a doctors note so I can't see anyone getting banned for pot.

It depends on if he ever wants to fight in the US again, it is a terrible look to circumvent punishment that way since they never have to give him a license again. He could go that route though but it would probably be a bad idea. Since he has some pretty serious injuries he should just take him lumps recover fully, then once he recovers get in the gym maybe with a new trainer and work on his game which he could really benefit from. Margarito fought some scrub in Mexico...right? I know the WBC will do whatever the Chavez family wants. Wondering if the boxing commissions exert influence on the governing bodies to stop that silliness. I guess Chavez will fight in DF for the WBC International Middleweight Championship.

they suspended nick diaz for a year for smoking pot, yes i know he is an mma fighter...same offense, same commision will probably=same punishment Yes they did, I was gonna bring him up as well It's complete bs in Nevada. They care most about weed but let steroids slide

You guys think the commision is really gonna suspend a boxer a year for pot?...:439: they suspended nick diaz for a year for smoking pot, yes i know he is an mma fighter...same offense, same commision will probably=same punishment

well Margarito license reinstatement was rejected by California and NSAC but Texas didn't have to honor it for Pacquaio vacant belt at catchweight fight. I bet we will see the Martinez rematch in Texas

He can fight in Mexico. The same issue arise with Margarito but he decided not to fight to honor the commission. He waited a year and came back. WBC most likely will have him a silver or diamond belt for when he comes back. Probably we wont see him fight in Vegas for a while.

...and hopefully he'll just stay and continue bashing in tomato cans, out of the limelight of REAL boxing news. Consigned. He should just become a national amusement rather than trying to be a serious boxing competitor.

Of course he can. There's no reason for Mexico to follow any us ban on him fighting.
