Julio Cesar Chavez Junior is 20 years old, not very strong for a welterweight, and not very quick either. He is technically very sound both on offence and defence and has the trademark left hook to the body that his father had. He also seems to have a decent chin, also no surprise because of his father's chin. In any case, he's being brought along carefully, fighting 6 rounders against decent fighters but not world class ones. Personally I think that his management is doing the right thing. What's the hurry?! If he was 27 or 28 years old I would say the same thing, that he should be stepping up by now. I'll bet that he gets stronger and faster over the next 3 or 4 years, and only then starts fighting the big boys with top 10 rankings.

We all remember Mike Tyson being a muscular, dangerous guy at only 19 years old, but Mike was a very rare exception. Lennox Lewis was a skinny, undeveloped fighter at that time, someone who wouldn't have lasted a full round with Tyson, but look what he became! Most guys don't reach their peak boxing strength until they're in their mid to late 20s. A few exceptions don't change the general rule.
