What does Canelo have that Julio Chavez Jr does not?

[BoxingFollower]

They both are Mexican...both were once undefeated, not Jcc anymore.
Why does Canelo just seem to hit it off with the fans so much more, you would think Jcc would have the upperhand due to his father possibly being one of the greatest Mexican fighters of all time.

An undefeated record.

[Russian Crushin]

JCC hits it off just as much as canelo. His fight against Rubio had HBO's highest rating like 4 years and his fight against Sergio did 450K PPVs, and it was mostly due to Chavez

[Slyboots]

Because he's a Mexican ginger and is more skilled than Chavez Jr.

[bojangles1987]

Chavez Jr. is really nothing more than a crude pressure fighter relying on size. It's worked to an extent with him, but when you watch Alvarez, you see a superior fighter in just about every way. That will excite fans more.

Talent

a clean drug record

A weight class where he doesn't outweigh everyone by 30 pounds

[CaneloMaidana]

Heart
He's super likable
He demanded to fight Trout
After 6 years of Manny and Floyd running it's good to see a real boxer
He has more skill




And you are right Mexicans prefer Canelo from what I've seen.

Started from the bottom now he's here.

Obviously more talented. Mexican fans know he has what it takes to become a great. JCC jr. was more like a novelty act. Daddy's name, and was fun while it lasted, but deep down inside people know he's not the truth.

[Ferrarijones]

Skill and dedication to his craft.
