    Oh come on everyone is blowing this way out of proportion. JCC Jr. is only 22 with no amatuer fights! Big deal he had a tough fight, and won a close decision. Everyone has tough fights, this doesnt mean hes finished. And everyone needs to stop rushing this kid and acting like hes his daddy, cause he isnt.
    He does have an amateur record I checked...

      Chavez Jr. to retire?
      By Jose Reyes
      After Julio Cesar Chavez Jr's controversial split decision win over Matt Vanda on Saturday night, Junior dropped the bombshell that he's considering hanging up his gloves for good. "The people wanted me to score a knockout but I could not," Chavez Jr. told TV AZTECA. "The people are very, very discontented with the result (this as Julio Sr is being booed when trying to calm down the crowd) and what can I tell you? What can I tell you as a fighter? Everything is just very sad....because of the fight....I don't know what to do. I don't know what I will do. I need to think about it real hard. I am considering retirement."

      Meanwhile, Julio Sr. lashed out at unruly fans who booed and threw things into the ring after the controversial decision was announced. "It's a group of drunks," said the Mexican legend. "I don't like excuses, but my son made a super human effort, he fought sick and wanted to cancel the fight. The doctor gave him a shot because he had a fever after the weigh-in," he said.
      He definitely needs a new trainer, boxing and strenght, he's a million miles away from getting anywhere near his Dad but he may improve and become a champ some day.
