By Jake Donovan - It was free and it was a fight. What more can you ask of a Julio Cesar Chavez Jr fight?
Hopefully not progression, as there's no chance of his stepping up in competition any time soon, especially after Saturday night's scare against Matt Vanda, as Chavez was lucky to escape with a split decision in Hermosilo, Sonora, Mexico.
The bout served as the main event of a special edition of boxing on Azteca America.
There were better ways to pay homage to his legendary father Julio Sr, who turned 46 on Saturday. Chavez Jr didn't expect the final product to turn out the way it did, but it was business as usual in the early going. Much like in Papa's day, no Chavez bout truly gets going until at least the second round. Chavez Jr spent the early going patiently measuring up his opponent, seeking the best course of action before carrying out his business. [details]
