Chavez vs Floyd Mayweather Fight Announced By Boxing Legend

Chavez vs Floyd Mayweather

In some rather extraordinary news in boxing a clash of two boxing legends has been announced by one of them.

No, this is not rubbish, it is real.

Mexican boxing legend Julio Cesar Chavez Sr. announced himself on Instagram the following match next month September 16th with Floyd Mayweather in Vegas:

Unbelievable stuff, an exhibition type match but still, two all time greats there.

Unless Chavez is playing a joke on his official Instagram channels, which he is not known for, there you have it.

Mayweather returns next weekend in Mexico City first however taking on John Gotti III in a rematch exhibition.
