Mexican boxer Julio Cesar Chavez Jnr has entered a prison in the northern Mexico state of Sonora after his arrest in the United States in July, Mexico\u2019s national arrest registry showed on Tuesday.<\/p>\n

Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum, in her daily press conference, said the 39-year-old had been deported.<\/p>\n

She previously said there was a warrant for his arrest for charges of arms trafficking and organised crime, and that prosecutors were working on the case.<\/p>\n

The Mexican attorney general\u2019s office declined to comment.<\/p>\n

The boxer\u2019s extradition comes as US President Donald Trump cracks down on immigrants as part of a promise to deport millions of people.<\/p>\n

Chavez Jnr, the son of a legendary former world champion boxer Julio Cesar Chavez, was detained by US immigration<\/a> authorities soon after losing in a sold-out match to American influencer-turned-boxer Jake Paul.<\/p>\n

Mexican prosecutors allege he acted as a henchman for the powerful Sinaloa Cartel, which Washington designated a foreign terrorist organisation earlier this year.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Mexican boxer Julio Cesar Chavez Jnr has entered a prison in the northern Mexico state of Sonora after…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":80420,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[571],"tags":[2620,64,63,802,61101,2490,61102,9225,61104,61107,61109,481,61103,2184,61105,61106,61108,85,1055],"class_list":["post-80419","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-boxing","tag-agence-france-presse","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-boxing","tag-claudia-sheinbaum","tag-donald-trump","tag-hermosillo","tag-jake-paul","tag-joaquin-el-chapo-guzman","tag-julio-cesar-chavez","tag-julio-cesar-chavez-jnr","tag-los-angeles","tag-mexican-attorney-generals-office","tag-mexico","tag-nogales","tag-sinaloa-cartel","tag-sonora","tag-sports","tag-united-states"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/80419","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=80419"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/80419\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/80420"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=80419"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=80419"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=80419"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
