Julio Cesar Chavez is a sporting legend and one of the greatest boxers ever to grace the ring. In his directorial debut, actor Diego Luna (Y tu mama tambien, Criminal) creates a spellbinding and moving portrayal of a Mexican hero. Coming from the streets of Sinaloa, northwest Mexico, Chavez rose to become a national icon, winning six world titles during the 1980s and 90s over four different weight classes and becoming one of the most respected and feared fighters in boxing history. With interviews from Mike Tyson, Don King, and Oscar De La Hoya as well as behind the scenes footage and boxing action from some of his most celebrated fights, this is a definitive account of a true boxing great.
