Famoso Hernandez- Jesus Chavez on May 28

Julio Cesar Chavez Sr. set to return on same date?

Carlos “Famoso” Hernandez gave Boxingtalk the scoop on his next fight, which will take place at the Staples’ Center in Los Angeles, May 28th on Showtime PPV.  Hernandez, Boxingtalk's #6 130 pounder, will be taking on Jesus Chavez (Boxingtalk #5) in a WBC junior lightweight title eliminator, which would position the winner to for a bout against Marco Antonio Barrera, or the winner of Manny Pacquiao vs. Erik Morales.  Famoso also informed Boxingtalk of his belief that on the same card, Julio Cesar Chavez Sr. will make his “Farewell to LA” fight along with his son seeing action as well.  IBF bantamweight champ Rafael Marquez may also be on the card, whichy would certainly be an amazing night for Mexican fight fans if all of these fighters appear.  Famoso said of his fight with Chavez that even though he is Salvadorian, that “LA is my town and I am going to win...It’s time to become champion again.”  Remember Where You Heard It First!
