The Richie Rich of fisticuffs, Julio Cesar Chavez, Jr., returns to the ring when he faces veteran Peter Manfredo, Jr. in a scheduled 12 tonight at the Reliant Arena in Houston, Texas. After two years of chaos—marked by a lack of discipline, a suspension, several cancelled fights, and a spell of hypochondria—Chavez rebounded to squeak by Sebastian Zbik last summer for a BMX world title. This championship, one that has caused a fair amount of dry heaving from Sergio Martinez fans, is, in fact, no better or worse than any other of the world titles in circulation these days: it brings to mind the 50-billion dollar bank note printed in Zimbabwe a few years ago.
