Former WBC middleweight champion Julio César Chávez Jr., now a 39 year-old cruiserweight, will return to action on April 25th when he faces Colombia's Jhon Caicedo in Reynosa, Tamaulipas, Mexico. Caicedo is 13-1, but last fought at light heavyweight, where he was KO'd early by Avni Yildirim in 2025.  The son of the legendary champion Julio César Chávez, is aiming to regain relevance in the sport and this bout represents a key opportunity for the Mexican fighter, who became world champion in 2011. Chávez Jr. (55-7-1 with 35 KOs) was deported from the United States following a loss to Jake Paul last year.
