The great Julio César Chávez Sr., Mexican boxing's most iconic superstar, announced the launch of a reality show that will be called “Los Chávez” offering an unprecedented view of his family life, exposing on television the triumphs and controversies that marked his professional and personal life. He announced on his social networks that he decided to share the life of his family, something he had not contemplated until now. “Now people will be able to know what really happens in my family. It’s six weeks of the reality show, so people can get to know me more deeply. What I do day to day, what my children do, and many other things,” the multi-division champion commented.
Fernando Barbosa, head of distribution and production for Disney in Latin America, described the show as a combination of The Osbournes and The Kardashians, highlighting the “crazy, interesting and extraordinary” nature of the Mexican champion’s life. Los Chávez will air on the Disney+ streaming platform. The trailer for the series shows Chávez with his children Julio César Jr., Omar and Nicole, as well as his wife Miriam Escobar, and offers a preview of personal and family moments, in addition to the difficulties with Jr.’s addictions, and the problems in his marriage.
