Terence Crawford - English
The name of Julio Cesar Chavez falls into the category of boxing and sporting legends in general in its own right. His record of 90 undefeated fights and more than 100 victories make him one of the most special fighters in history. Unforgettable was that fight against Meldrick Taylor or the one against Greg Haugen at the Azteca Stadium with the attendance record (132,274 spectators). The ‘Great Mexican Champion’, who has achieved more victories in championship duels (31), was able to move an entire country and today at 62 years of age he visits Spain for charity reasons.
Chavez offered a ‘master class’ at the Emporio Boxing gym in Madrid, which was full of anecdotes. The legendary fighter shared his life experiences above all and his recipe for success: “Dreams come true through effort and perseverance, but the most important thing is discipline. It is something that is worth everything and thanks to it you can get to achieve what you set out to do. Along the way there will be falls from which one has to overcome. You have to have the courage to get up, but without discipline you get nowhere,” said JC.

My fight against alcohol and drugs has been the hardest of my life and my greatest victory
The Ciudad Obregon native even recalled that when he started, “I didn’t like boxing”. He followed the path of his brothers, although what interested him “was soccer”. “I put on the gloves so much that in the end I was interested,” he recalled. “I told my mother that if I lost I would go back to school, and that’s how I got to 90 fights undefeated,” joked the Mexican. The champion was also blunt when talking about his darkest time: “I felt alone and took refuge in alcohol and drugs and that’s why I lost my undefeated record. That has been the hardest fight of my life and the greatest victory,” he said.

Canelo vs. Crawford
We discussed with him some current boxing issues. Does Crawford have a chance to beat Canelo? The ‘Caesar of Boxing’ is very clear about what will happen in this fight between undisputed champions that will take place on September 13: “Crawford is a great fighter, he is one of the best pound-for-pound, and he has shown it through his fights and time, but it’s crazy to move up so many divisions to fight Canelo. He’s doing it for money, logically. I don’t see any chance of him beating Canelo. Yes, he’s going to give him a fight because he’s good, but he doesn’t have a chance to win. It’s too much weight and it’s not going to be enough for him to win,” he told MARCA.
Crawford? It’s crazy to go up so many divisions to fight Canelo. Logically, he does it for money
In recent weeks, there have been many ‘attacks’ on Canelo’s figure for a fight that is on everyone’s lips. Will the fight against David Benavidez take place? “It’s the fight everyone wants to see, but Canelo doesn’t want it and I don’t know when we’re going to see it,” JC replies.
Pacquiao has a chance to win; he’s up against a fighter who is not one of the great champions
There is another hot topic these days in the world of boxing: Manny Pacquiao’s return to fight for the world title against Mario Barrios. Chavez gives Pac-Man a chance of victory: “You should never rule out Pacquiao. It seems crazy to me to return at 47 years old. Logically he is going against a fighter who is not a great champion, a regular fighter and he has a chance to win.”

Jays have faith Bowden Francis can rebound vs. Phillies
May 27, 2025; Arlington, Texas, USA; Toronto Blue Jays starting pitcher Bowden Francis (44) throws during the first inning against the Texas Rangers at Globe Life Field. Mandatory Credit: Kevin Jairaj-Imagn Images It's been almost two months since Toronto starter Bowden Francis picked up a victory, but Blue Jays manager John Schneider says he still has trust in the 6-foot-5, 220-pound right-hander heading into Saturday afternoon's road start against the Philadelphia Phillies. Francis (2-8, 6.12 ERA) has dropped six straight decisions since a 3-1 home win over the Seattle Mariners on April 18 and has allowed 19 home runs (second in the American League) in 60 1/3 innings. But Schneider points to an 8-5 record and 3.30 ERA in 2024 for sticking with Francis in the rotation. "We trust him," Schneider told MLB.com after Francis allowed four runs on five […]
Tigers’ Jack Flaherty looks for another strong outing vs. Reds
Jun 2, 2025; Chicago, Illinois, USA; Detroit Tigers starting pitcher Jack Flaherty (9) delivers a pitch against the Chicago White Sox during the first inning at Rate Field. Mandatory Credit: Kamil Krzaczynski-Imagn Images Following a slow beginning, Jack Flaherty has regained the form that made the Detroit Tigers want to re-sign him in free agency. The right-hander will face a familiar foe when he starts the middle game of a three-game home series against the Cincinnati Reds on Saturday afternoon. Flaherty has made four consecutive quality starts and earned three straight victories heading into his 14th outing of the season. After his second May start, Flaherty was 1-5 with a 4.61 ERA. He is now 5-6 with a 3.41 ERA. Flaherty went 7-5 with a 2.95 ERA in 18 starts with the Tigers last season before he was dealt at […]
Thunder vs. Pacers: How OKC’s collective team effort gave Shai Gilgeous-Alexander the juice to close out Game 4
INDIANAPOLIS — Shai Gilgeous-Alexander told anyone who would listen earlier in these 2025 NBA Finals: Yes, he’s the one with the Most Valuable Player trophy and the matinee idol billing, but the Thunder are far from a solo act.“No one-man show achieves what I'm trying to achieve with this game … those guys are the reason why we're as good of a team as we are,” he said following Oklahoma City’s series-leveling Game 2 win. “I just add to it.”AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementGilgeous-Alexander added plenty on Friday: a game-high 35 points, headlined by an all-time-clutch, postseason-career-high 15-point fourth quarter, to propel the Thunder past the Pacers to a series-evening — and possibly season-saving — 111-104 win at Gainbridge Fieldhouse.But surviving a physical, nasty, fever-pitched Game 4 to send this best-of-seven series back to Oklahoma City all knotted up at two games apiece took […]
Cubs out to boost run production vs. improving Pirates
Jun 12, 2025; Chicago, Illinois, USA; Chicago Cubs center fielder Pete Crow-Armstrong (4) hits a two-run home run against the Pittsburgh Pirates during the fourth inning at Wrigley Field. Mandatory Credit: Kamil Krzaczynski-Imagn Images There has been a common theme in the Chicago Cubs' recent losses: an inability to produce with runners on base. It's something the Cubs will look to rectify on Saturday when they host the Pittsburgh Pirates in the third matchup of a four-game set. The Cubs stranded nine runners and went 0-for-10 with runners in scoring position in a 2-1, 10-inning loss on Friday. In a 7-2 defeat to the Philadelphia Phillies on Wednesday, they left seven on base and were 1-for-7 with a chance to score. The loss before that (4-3 in 11 innings against Philadelphia on Monday) saw Chicago leave eight on base while […]
Hrůzy války. Bývalý ukrajinský hokejista utrpěl na frontě děsivá zranění
