In 1981, Chavez made his pro boxing debut. Back then nobody envisioned him as a special talent, but the Mexican had his intentions clear on what he wished to do. With his sheer brilliance, he registered constant wins and made his way to the top. After 24 years as a competitor, he retired with a whopping 107-6-2 boxing stint.
Following his footsteps, Canelo Alvarez, too, is tracing the pathway of greatness.
