<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/sports/boxing-the-best-fights-that-could-happen-in-2022-20220101-0007.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Errol Spence</a>‘s luck changed in October 2019 when he suffered a dramatic car crash that put his life in real danger. Fortunately, he could just not only fully heal but come back to the ring. Since then he has just been able to fight once, in 2020. April 2022 may mark the end of his absence in <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/boxing/boxing-floyd-mayweather-next-fight-will-take-him-so-high-20220104-0018.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">boxing</a> activity with a tremendous clash against Yordenis Ugas.
In a live transmission on Instagram,the Truth(27-0-0) said that his next fight will be in April and that his opponent is supposed to be the54 Milagros(27-4-0). This bout will fire the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/sports/boxing-all-current-world-champions-in-the-17-divisions-of-the-4-top-organizations-20211215-0041.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Welterweight division</a> cause on the table there will be the WBC, WBA, and IBF World titles.
With Spence and Ugas fighting for the supremacy of the 147 lbs weight class, there might be other bouts that could switch on even more this category. Even though <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/sports/boxing-fighters-who-have-won-world-titles-in-five-different-weight-classes-20211217-0034.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Manny Pacquiao</a> has retired after losing to Ugas, there are enough fighters to make incredible matches for boxing fans.
<h2>The best fights to occur in Welterweight division in 2022</h2>
Terrence Crawford vs Danny Garcia.Budhas just opened the door for Shawn Porter to retire from boxing, however, he can not just stand there and see how other Spence and Ugas steal all the lights. A good fight to keep Crawford tuned up would be the one against García.
Swift(36-3-0, 21 KO’s) has not fought since Spence defeated him in 2020 and he urgently needs to recover places in the Welterweight race. A clash with Crawford may be the answer that the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/sports/top-25-most-impressive-boxing-records-20210616-0014.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">boxing community</a> is searching for Danny: is his superb career coming to an end?

Vergir Ortiz Jr vs Jaron Ennis.Some similarities could make this fight a magnificent success. Both are young (almost the same age), undefeated, and with tremendous power on their fists. They are searching for a name that could catapult them to the huge fights against the Welterweight<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/sports/top-25-fastest-boxers-off-all-time-20210315-0006.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Top Dogs</a>.
Ortiz Jr (18-0-0, 18 KO’s) has just defeated Lithuanian Egidijus Kavaliauskas in August in the most demanding fight he has had so far. On the other hand, Ennis destroyed Puerto Rican Thomas Dulorned in October with a spectacular KO in the first round of their fight.

Amir Khan vs Kell Brook / Keith Thurman vs Mario Barrios.The winners of these clashes could clearly face each other. The four have already had a World title on their waist, and, even though they are considered, except Barrios, as <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/sports/the-top-25-greatest-boxing-matches-of-all-time-20210416-0020.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">experienced boxers</a>, all of them could still have one last shot to upset the 147 weight class.

Boxing: Errol Spence vs Yordenis Ugas and other great fights to happen in Welterweight division - Bolavip US

<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/sports/boxing-what-does-jake-paul-have-to-offer-julio-cesar-chavez-jr-to-concrete-a-fight-20211223-0030.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Julio Cesar Chavez Jr </a>is having troubles inside and outside the ring. The former World Middleweight Champion, and first Mexican ever to win a title in that division, is dealing with the frustration of <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/sports/boxing-the-ocassions-when-julio-cesar-chavez-jr-shamed-his-family-name-20211216-0027.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">not honoring his father’s legacy</a> in <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/boxing/boxing-floyd-mayweather-next-fight-will-take-him-so-high-20220104-0018.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">boxing</a>, and, now, with health issues, as his wife revealed recently.
The polemic is something that Julito has always dealt with. Since he was a child, he witnessed how his father, the great Mexican champion Julio Cesar Chavez, had trouble with drugs and other substances abuse. Also, from the beginning of his professional career, all the lights were over him for being the son of a <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/sports/best-boxer-in-the-world-of-all-time-20210214-0011.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">boxing legend</a>, and every decision he made was strongly judged and compared with the ones Canelo Alvarez made.
Unfortunately for Chavez Jr, he could not fulfill the expectations over his career and, after losing his <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/sports/boxing-all-current-world-champions-in-the-17-divisions-of-the-4-top-organizations-20211215-0041.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">world title</a> against Argentinian SergioMaravillaMartinez, he was not able to recover the bright. Now, with 35 years old and a very little chance to put his name again at the top of boxing rankings, his personal life is touched by the controversy, according to Frida Muñoz, his wife.
<h2>The health issues of Julio Cesar Chavez Jr according to his wife Frida Muñoz</h2>
TheUnivisionshowDespierta Americahas interviewed Frida Muñoz, still, Chavez Jr’s wife, who leaked the Mexican boxer is living dark times that affect not only his performance in the ring but, overall, his daily life with harmful behavior.
“I do not judge him. He has had a very difficult childhood, and he is repeating what he has learned from his father. He has not received the proper treatment and that is why he continues in the same way. He is an ill person and tries to evade his reality by taking pills and blaming everybody around him“, stated Muñoz.
Despite his hypothetical addiction and psychological problems, Julio Cesar Chavez Jr is not pointed out as a bad person by his wife: “He is a good guy, the father of my children and I am not going to speak negatively about him because I respect the kids and his parents. They know how difficult it has been to deal with his illness“, concludedJulito’s wife.
In 2012, Julio Cesar Chavez Jr was suspended by Nevada Athletic Commission due to a positive result for marijuana next his defeat with Sergio Martinez. Also, in December 2019 he moved his fight with Daniel Jacobs from Nevada to Arizona after he refused to make <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/the-sun-report-cocaine-use-rampant-at-premier-league-games-20211229-0010.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">anti-doping</a> tests before his clash againstthe Miracle Man.

Boxing: Julio Cesar Chavez Jr may have addiction problems, points out his wife Frida Muñoz - Bolavip US

Currently, as the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/sports/boxing-canelo-alvarez-and-the-rest-of-latin-american-awarded-fighters-of-the-year-by-the-ring-magazine-20211229-0042.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Pound for Pound king of boxing</a>, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/sports/boxing-canelo-alvarez-legend-is-bigger-than-chavez-roberto-duran-20211228-0034.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Canelo Alvarez</a> has the power and the opportunity to freely choose the rivals he wants to fight. That is the hardest part: to be chosen by Canelo. Nevertheless, there is a boxer who has publicly stated he is interested in other fights above that of Alvarez: Joe Smith Jr.
Joe Smith Jr, 27-3-0 (21 KO’s), is nowadays the WBO World Light heavyweight Champion. He has taken the belt from Russian Maxim Vlasov on April 2021 and will make his first defense against British Callum Johnson on January 15.
The 32 year old American boxer has made a very interesting career since his pro debut in 2009. He is remembered the most for destroying and retiring mighty <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/sports/best-boxer-in-the-world-of-all-time-20210214-0011.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">BernardExecutionerHopkins</a> with an astonishing KO in 2016. Smith Jr has lost on his first World title shot against current WBA Light heavyweight Champion Dimitry Bivol.
<h2>Why would Joe Smith Jr not fight Canelo first if he had the chance?</h2>
In an interview for The Last Stand Podcast with Brian Custer,Joe Smith Jr stated that his current priority is not money but his legacy though. So, if he had the opportunity to select a rival for him, Canelo Alvarez would not be his first pick.
“At this point, everybody would choose the Canelo fight because it is money to be made there. But really for my legacy, I want to be known as a great fighter so I would like to fight Beterbiev and Bivol.What I really want is to unify and to become the only champion.“, mentionedthe Long Island, New York, native.
<div style="text-align:center">
<figure class="image"> <img loading="lazy" alt="Joe Smith Jr, Bernard Hopkins, Boxing" data-height="413" data-width="740" data-size="w:740,h:413" hspace="5" vspace="5" title="Joe Smith Jr, Bernard Hopkins, Boxing" src="https://bolavip.com/__export/1641330359606/sites/bolavip/img/2022/01/04/bernard_hopkinsx_joe_smith_jrx_boxing.jpeg_22993414.jpeg" width="740" height="413"><figcaption> Joe Smith Jr dramatically knocked out Hopkins in 2016.

</div>
Obviously, after unifying belts with either <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/sports/boxing-canelo-alvarez-and-his-road-to-glory-on-2022-20211216-0019.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Artur Beterbiev</a>, WBC and IBF Champion, or Dimitry Bivol, WBA titleholder, Joe Smith Jr would totally take a shot against Alvarez because “Unless Canelo comes up and wants to fight, I’ll take that fight. That is the big money right there, butl am looking out more than just makingthe bigmoney. I want the keep the name for myself and I want to fight the best. He is the best“, he said.
Canelo Alvarez is willing to jump into Cruiserweight to challenge WBC World Champion <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/sports/boxing-the-possible-rival-for-canelo-alvarez-next-fight-20211229-0029.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">CongoleseIlunga Junior Makabu</a> in May, but, if he makes history <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/sports/boxing-fighters-who-have-won-world-titles-in-five-different-weight-classes-20211217-0034.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">winning a belt in a fifth different category</a>, he could be thinking about trying luck again in the Light heavyweight division.

Boxing: The only fighter in the world that would not prioritize a fight against Canelo Alvarez

Boxing: The only fighter in the world that would not prioritize a fight against Canelo Alvarez - Bolavip US

Whatever <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/offside/how-much-is-floyd-mayweather-winter-outfit-20211222-0030.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Floyd Mayweather</a> does is special. It is clear that he does not like ordinary things. His boxing record, the number of <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/sports/boxing-fighters-who-have-won-world-titles-in-five-different-weight-classes-20211217-0034.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">world titles in different weight classes</a> he has won, his deluxe watches, cars, clothes, and trips can testify in favor of it; and also his next exhibition fight on February 20.
“I don’t like to call what I am doing a fight: I would like to call it a limited edition boxing showcase cause it is bigger than just boxing“, said Floyd in a press conference held in Dubai, where his next exhibition clash will be held. The name of his next opponent is still a mystery, but some reports mentioned that Youtube Money Kicks could be the lucky one.
The Burj Al Arab hotel will be the venue of <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/sports/the-25-top-earning-athletes-of-all-time-20211124-0010.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Mayweather’s coming back to a boxing ring</a>. However, the fighting action will not occur in a hall: this time,the Pretty Boywill perform atop the mentioned hotel, exactly on its helipad. He has already shown himself on this spot days ago when he was part of a special training session of British former World Heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua.
<h2>Floyd Mayweather exhibition fights since his boxing retirement</h2>
After <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/sports/the-most-memorable-fights-between-boxers-and-mixed-martial-artists-20211218-0021.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">overcomingUFC superstarConor McGregorin August 2017</a>, Floyd has said goodbye to official boxing fights. He left his record with an immaculate 50-0-0. However, his passion forSweet Sciencehas taken him to make some quick returns to the ring.
In December 2018, Mayweather starred in Japan in his first exhibition fight. He defeated local kickboxing championTenshin Nasukawaby the way of TKO in less than two minutes. Nasukawa, who was 20 years old by the time, cried at his corner when the fight was over.
<div style="text-align:center">
<figure class="image"> <img loading="lazy" alt="Floyd Mayweather, Tenshin Nasukawa, Boxing" data-height="413" data-width="740" data-size="w:740,h:413" hspace="5" vspace="5" title="Floyd Mayweather, Tenshin Nasukawa, Boxing" src="https://bolavip.com/__export/1641326193903/sites/bolavip/img/2022/01/04/floyd_mayweather_jrx_tenshin_nasukawax_boxingx_exhibition_fight.jpeg_22993414.jpeg" width="740" height="413"><figcaption> Floyd Mayweather smashed Japanese Tenshin Nasukawa.

</div>
Then, on June 2021, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/sports/floyd-mayweather-turns-down-a-fans-request-for-a-selfie-because-of-his-painted-fingernails-20211025-0020.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Floyd Mayweather </a>had his second exhibition bout: <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/sports/internet-star-jake-paul-takes-a-shot-at-boxing-legend-floyd-mayweather-20210819-0008.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">he fought YoutuberLogan Paul</a>, Jake’s older brother, at the Hard Rock Stadium, in Miami, Florida. After 8 rounds, the fight ended and no winner was announced.
<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/sports/top-25-fastest-boxers-off-all-time-20210315-0006.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Mayweather</a> has earned $74 million so far for his two exhibition fights: 9 for the first one in Japan against Tenshin Nasukawa, and 65 for the second one with Logan Paul. Maybe his first “limited edition boxing showcase” could surpass the mentioned earnings.
