ESPN Deportes, Julio Cesar Chavez score knockout with new boxing show A Los Golpes

When the fight ends, the boxing fan is just getting started.

That’s when the debate between friends begin, when the blog wars escalate and the news forums go crazy.

Two weeks ago, ESPN Deportes debuted A Los Golpes (Rolling with the Punches), a weekly primetime boxing news and analysis show that serves as a post-fight arena filled with expert opinion, debate, analysis and boxing tips. Now airing every Monday (7:30 p.m. ET), the show’s concept was developed to offer fans a broader analysis and review of the main bouts that happened over the weekend.

Produced from Los Angeles, the show is also highlighted by the participation of the Mexican boxing champion and International Boxing Hall Of Fame inductee Julio Cesar Chavez. For the first time, he sits on a set as a regular analyst to share his boxing knowledge.

He is joined by hosts David Faitelson and Bernardo Osuna, two of the most respected boxing experts in the industry. The combination of these three personalities promises a unique perspective of what is happening in the world of boxing, a sport that is ingrained in the Hispanic culture.
