Mexican boxer Julio Cesar Chavez Jr has entered a prison in the northern Mexico state of Sonora after his arrest in the United States in July, Mexico's national arrest registry showed on Tuesday.

Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum in her daily press conference said the 39-year-old been deported. She previously said there was a warrant for his arrest for charges of arms trafficking and organized crime, and that prosecutors were working on the case.

Chavez Jr was wearing a black hoodie and red sneakers, it said.

If that's all he was wearing, they should have arrested him for indecent exposure as well.

Can't believe it took five people (plus AI, probably) to white this short news report.

He wasn’t deported, he was extradited in response to a Mexican warrant for his arrest. But either way, he isn’t coming back.

“OK, five collaborators, including one writer.”

Three sources. The writer was checking for facts. That is good.

One editor. Good journalism.

What is your problem?

Could'a been a floor-length evening hoodie.
