Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. made weight for his fight Saturday night. If Chavez had failed to make weight, he would have had to pay Alvarez $1 million per pound as a penalty. Now, he'll get to keep every bit of his guaranteed $3 million purse (Alvarez will earn a guaranteed $5 million). I felt it was going to be a lot of work and it has been a lot of work. After all, he’s basically a blown-up super middleweight who had to meet the catchweight in order to fight Alvarez – the recognized middleweight champion and the No.
