It's the opening weekend. That's a big deal to a lot of people.

 

I have no problem with the game it's an understandable judgment they get innumerable more eyeballs. I write as I'm watching nd Texas on abc. I can't see the appeal of the analysts but to each their own.

Mexican boxing legend Julio Cesar Chavez & soccer star @OficialGio surprise @ESPNDeportes in Spanish-lang TISC spot https://t.co/Z62g1wYQDA pic.twitter.com/JH4EH85nNc

— ESPN PR (@ESPNPR) September 22, 2016

ESPN is debuting two new “This is SportsCenter” commercials in Spanish, featuring MLS All-Star Giovani dos Santos, Mexican boxing legend and ESPN analyst Julio Cesar Chavez, alongside SportsCenter hosts Tony Cherchi and Alvaro Morales, and Raza Deportiva and Nación ESPN host Mauricio Pedroza. The spots debut today on ESPN Deportes and ESPN in Mexico and Central America.

As the Los Angeles Galaxy is closer to securing its spot in the MLS playoffs, Gio dos Santos and his trusted alien sidekick and Los Angeles Galaxy mascot Cozmo star in the first spot, titled “Gio’s Playground.” During the 30-second ad, they practice for the upcoming MLS playoffs, but, in an office setting. Out of the soccer field, they both face a different challenge, an authoritative Julio Cesar Chavez, who with a simple yet powerful stare communicates to Gio that it is time to stop goofing around.
