Chavez Jr, after being under weight questions, since the Brian Vera fight in 2013, wanted to show/prove to the boxing world that, yes, he can make 168lbs for a fight.
Whether he can physically get down to 165lbs is another question (seeing the Britsch weigh-in, I don't know where he shaves that final three pounds from), but Chavez Jr has now made it clear that the 168lb belts are within his reach.
Fighting the winner of Jack-Degale (once the mandatory is done with), fighting "Zurdo" Ramirez for the WBO belt (if Chavez Jr Promotions/Haymon and Top Rank can come together on a deal that makes sense for everyone involved), or simply campaigning at 168lbs (Chavez Jr seems to have already shown that he's likely not physically strong enough to compete with the top fighters at 175lbs) are now proved options for him.
