    Surely he was legal to be here for the Jake Paul fight which was only 5 days ago. This is quite a shocker. And I question why any Mexican athlete would ever want to step foot in the United States after an incident like this.

      Nah, this one makes complete sense if there were warrants out for his arrest in Mexico. We have extradition laws with Mexico (and most every other country in the Americas). Which is why we know most of these deportations are bologna. If someone actually had a warrant out for their arrest and was arrested for anything in the U.S. they would have been flagged for extradition when their ID was taken. If we couldn’t correctly ID them, then there was no way for the U.S. to suddenly claim they had charges against them in another country. Any way you put it together, the executive branch is lying.

        He was standing with the president of Mexico as recently as 2 weeks ago. The idea that he had a warrant out for his arrest at that time is clearly bogus.

            I’ve heard nothing from either government yet. Still currently accusations, no results no evidence. A lot of people connecting some dots, which are that Chavez Jr is recently married to an ex of the El Chapo family, and maybe this is meant to be some sort of example by the Trump admin for whataver reason. If you look back on Chavez Jr’s history, he’s basically a young rich kid in Mexico and that meant hanging out with the other young rich kids including the rich kids of crime families. Which he’s now marrying an in-law of.

    Wonder how much of a shitshow the World Cup is going to be? Nobody is going to want to go to the US to play if they could wind up in some gulag.

      Football fans would willingly go to a gulag to watch the World Cup. They went to Qatar without any hesitation. 99% of people don’t take politics, human rights or morality into consideration when planning entertainment.
