In two weeks, former WBC middleweight champion Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. will report to trainer Robert Garcia at his gym in Riverside, California.
Both Garcia and Chavez are united in wanting the next fight to take place at the super middleweight limit of 168-pounds. Chavez Jr., who last month won a ten round unanimous decision over Marco "Dorado" Reyes in El Paso, Texas, hopes to possibly return on a date in November.
Three of Chavez's last four fights have taken place at 170-pounds or above - with two of them initially being scheduled for 168. The last fight with Reyes had a max of 169 and then moved up to 170 but Chavez still came in overweight.
