Logically, it would make sense to announce it right now. But boxing logic is worse than no logic at all. I’m betting on a random Thursday, maybe February or March of next year.
Why? Because that’s how long it takes for both guys to finish their side hustles. Jake needs to sell some energy drinks, and Jr. needs to do a few tequila shots for “training.”
Don’t hold your breath. And if you see a billboard with a question mark for the date, you’ll know you’re not alone.

Imagine it. Jake will scream about being the “new generation.” Chavez Jr. will mumble something in Spanish while looking mildly confused. Then, someone will throw a water bottle.
Spoiler: It will be Jake. And Chavez Jr. will respond by not showing up to the weigh-in. Classic.

We’ll all laugh, tweet about it, and then forget until fight night. Because that’s the cycle. It’s a beautiful, toxic relationship we have with these clowns.
