San Diego, Ca- Ignacio Beristáin will not train Julio Cesar Chavez Jr for his upcoming fight. Chavez was rumored to fight this December but was not able to get any opponent. Now Chavez Jr. is rumored to be back in the ring on January 26. The front-runner to land the Chavez Jr fight is Alfredo “El Perro” Angulo. Beristáin and Chavez team up this past May when they lost a unanimous decision against Saul “Canelo” Alvarez.
” I am not an exclusive trainer for one fighter. I have lots of fighter and obligations I need to attend too. If he calls me in the future to train again, I am ok with it. I am professional, but for the moment I need to work with my other fighters. I don’t even think his training after seeing a picture that he looks overweight.” Beristáin told the media.
” I feel the fight against Angulo will be a great fight.”
Beristáin is Mexico City training his fighters, and Chavez is in Los Angeles getting ready for his return.
