Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. took on Daniel Jacobs from the Talking Stick Resort Arena in Phoenix, Arizona last night (Sat. December 20, 2019).

The crowd was very pro-Chavez, who came out to support the son of the Mexican boxing legend, who was also in attendance for the bout. However, after the fifth round, Chavez said he could no longer continue citing an injured hand. His coach, Freddie Roach, claimed Chavez suffered from a busted nose and couldn’t breathe.

Here’s the footage from Chavez’s corner when he determined he could no longer continue.

Chavez’s father was also caught on footage the moment the stoppage was announced, and he hung his head in shame, covering his face with his hand.

The crowd went nuts, immediately throwing things into the crowd.

Chavez Jr., who came into the fight overweight and has a long history of having his heart and fighter’s spirit questioned, offered his explanation for the stoppage soon after.

What do you think about Chavez Jr. quitting against Jacobs and his father’s reaction?

Canelo Alvarez and Daniel Jacobs met for a unified middleweight championship bout inside the T-Mobile Arena from Las Vegas, Nevada last night (Sat. May 4, 2019).

Alvarez’s WBA (Super), WBC, The Ring, and lineal middleweight titles were on the line, as was Jacobs’ IBF middleweight strap. Alvarez looked to control the fight early on. He showed some great movement and counter-punching ability. His defensive tactics against Jacobs were probably the best we have ever seen from the Mexican star.

However, Jacobs changed the course of the fight in the middle rounds when he connected on a huge hook. From then on out, Alvarez showed more respect for Jacobs’ power, and “The Miracle Man” began to put together his punches. Although Jacobs had a much better second half, making the affair a more competitive one, it wasn’t enough for the win.

Alvarez took home the unanimous decision and added Jacobs’ IBF middleweight strap to his collection. Check out the highlights here:

Although Jacobs put on an impressive showing in the latter portion of the fight, it wasn’t enough to dethrone the middleweight king. Alvarez took home a unanimous decision victory on the judge’s scorecards, with the scores reading 115-113, 115-113, and 116-112.
