A deal is very close for Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. (45-0-1, 31KOs) to defend his WBC middleweight title against Andy Lee (28-1, 20KOs) in an HBO televised fight on June 16th in Texas, according to Top Rank's CEO Bob Arum.

if it's in Texas Chavez by UD is a lock, the only hope Lee has is KO. I think he can get it because Chavez has ZERO defense but if Chavez is standing by the end of the 12th he wins.

why are people writing this fight off? i think andy lee is the toughest fight for chavez career and would give him a pretty big chance to beat chavez.

If JCC Jr. wins, it'll be his best win.
And I agree with the Texas comment, fighting there seems worse and worse every time
