HERMISILLO, Mexico: A judge in Mexico said boxer Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. will stand trial over alleged cartel ties and arms trafficking but could await that trial outside of detention, the boxer’s lawyer said. Chavez’s lawyer, Ruben Fernando Benitez Alvarez, confirmed that the court imposed additional measures and granted three months of further investigation into the case. He described the claims against his client as “speculation” and “urban legends” following the court hearing on Saturday in the northern Mexican city of Hermosillo.
