HOLLYWOOD, CA — WBC middleweight titlist Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. is already hard at work preparing for his long-awaited September 15 championship showdown with Sergio Martinez. Chavez Jr. met up with trainer Freddie Roach yesterday for a workout that included sparring. As evidenced by the pictures, Chavez Jr. looks to have come into camp is decent shape and doesn’t look too far from his fighting weight. However, being that his fight night weight is usually around 180 pounds, we’ll see in the coming weeks how Chavez Jr.’s body deals with cutting weight down to the 160 pound middleweight limit.
