Hector Camacho Jr. had never been stopped in 88 professional fights.

The son of former world champion “ Macho’s” Camacho had a head-butt in Round 5 of a bout against Jesse James Leija .

After five rounds, the unbeaten fighter had lost control of both himself and his own plan.

Eighteen years later , Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. went through the same thought process and book of excuses.

Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. has been stopped as a pro twice by the referee.

The Mexican was the one to call the stoppage and decide that enough was enough.

It is counterproductive for a boxer to take to boxing from a position of comfort or, indeed, softness. They instead need to be hard, history suggests.

As a child, Chris Eubank Jr. never even watched boxing before he started taking it seriously.

As a teenager, he was beaten up on his first day at the gym by his dad.

He spent four years in the U.S. working with some of the best trainers and fighters in the world.
