As part of the arrangement, Sportsbook.com will be the title sponsor of two upcoming Pay-Per-View fights featuring some of the biggest names in boxing at the Staples Center in Los Angeles and Madison Square Garden in New York.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
On May 28 in Los Angeles, Julio Cesar Chavez, regarded as the greatest fighter in the history of Mexico, and his undefeated teenage son J.C. Chavez, Jr. will be on the same championship boxing card.
