Lou DiBella: Julio Caesar Chavez Junior is a talented fighter – Boxing News
Lou DiBella, CEO of DiBella Entertainment and promoter for Sergio Gabriel Martinez, praised Julio Caesar Chavez Junior for being a talented and lethal pugilist. According to him, Chavez is being falsely promoted as a paper champion.
DiBella Entertainment and Golden Boy Promotions are currently busy in promoting the upcoming championship fight of their clients, two of the best middleweights in the world, Sergio Gabriel Martinez and Julio Caesar Chavez Junior.
The bout will be held on September 15, 2012, televising live from Thomas & Mack Center in Las Vegas, Nevada, United States. Both promoters and fighters, along with their trainers, recently arranged a press conference, putting forth their thoughts to the
media regarding the bout.
Lou, who promotes world number one middleweight Sergio, adopted a cool and lay low stance while expressing his views about the clash. DiBella stated, “People said [Chavez] was a paper champion, but I’m afraid of him. This is not an easy fight even though
I believe Sergio Martinez is one of the pound-for-pound best.”
The renowned promoter further added that the bout would revive the true spirit of boxing which has been tarnished by some recent controversies. DiBella commented that we need to put the best against the best to give the fans an exciting and energetic bout.
During the press conference, Pablo Sarmiento, Sergio’s trainer, bashed Julio Junior aggressively, dubbing the WBC middleweight champion and his trainer Freddie Roach as men having a major problem. Pablo stated, “The best way to sell the advertising will
be the bottom of [Chavez’] shoes because it will be the first thing the cameras focus on. Jr. and Freddie Roach have a major problem.”
The media interaction also witnessed the Hall of Famer Freddie Roach share his thoughts in his regular care-free and friendly manner. Roach praised Sergio for being a good fighter and a nice guy, adding that this is a big fight for everyone and may the best
man win the bout.
Freddie stated, “I look forward to this fight. Sergio is a good fighter and a really nice guy. This is a big fight and the fans want to see it. It’s going to be a great fight, may the best man win.”
