Former WBC middleweight champion Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. (49-2-1, 32KOs) is not very happy with fellow Mexican superstar Saul 'Canelo' Alvarez (48-1-1, 34KOs).

The two boxers are negotiating a potential catch-weight bout at 165-pounds. Canelo, who holds the WBO junior middleweight title, would move up from 154-pounds, while Chavez Jr. would come down from the super middleweight limit of 168.

The fight would headline an HBO Pay-Per-View event on May 6th. At the moment, the biggest issue with finalizing Chavez-Canelo is the money.

Chavez Jr. says Canelo is making things very difficult to reach a deal. He claims his own side has budged a few times and accepted all of demands that were thrown in their direction, but says Canelo is looking to secure the majority of the money in the pot.

"The negotiations are still going, but there has been no willingness on the part of another Mexican fighter, because he wants to get five times more [money] than us, which is something that I find unfair. We do not want more, we are giving them more - but that is the right thing to do, especially because it is the fight that people want to see. And if they do not accept, then it's not us who aren't interested in the fight," Chavez Jr. told Box Azteca.

"I accepted 165 [pounds], and everything that they asked of me I accepted. We agreed to be the one to take less money. Because that is something that's right to do, not them with their childish whims. This is a sport and it's here to give pleasure to the people. Let the people know that we are willing to give them everything they are asking for... only that we will not do it because of a person's complaints. Let's do things professionally and if things are right it will happen - or else there is no sense in dealing with the growing egos of people who do not look out for people or care about the boxing public."
