Professional boxing career

Chevalier made his professional debut against Jean Carlos Molina on 29 March 2014, and won the fight by a first-round knockout. He amassed a 14–0 record during the next five years, before being scheduled to face Luis Lebron for the interim WBO Latino featherweight title.[2] Chevalier won the fight by unanimous decision. Two of the judges scored the fight 100–90 for him, while the third judge awarded him a 97–93 scorecard.[3] Chevalier made the first defense of his newly acquired regional title against Yeison Vargas on 7 December 2019. He won the fight by a third-round knockout.[4]

Chevalier was booked to face Carlos Zambrano on 4 March 2021, following a 15-month absence from the sport. He won the fight by a third-round knockout. Chevalier first knocked Zambrano down in the first round, with a shot to the back of the head which wasn't spotted by the referee. He knocked Zambrano down twice more in the third round, first with a right straight and then with a body shot, which left Zambrano unable to beat the ten count.[5]

Chevalier faced James Wilkins for the vacant WBO-NABO featherweight title on 9 July 2021. The fight was Chevalier's United States debut, as the bout took place at the Banc of California Stadium in Los Angeles.[6] He justified his role as the betting favorite,[7] winning the bout by unanimous decision, with scores of 97–92, 95–94 and 96–93.[8]

Chevalier faced Carlos Padilla on 6 July 2022, following a near year-long absence from the sport.[9] He won the fight by a second-round technical knockout.[10] Chevalier next faced Cesar Juarez for the vacant WBO Intercontinental super featherweight title on 26 October 2022. He won the fight by a seventh-round technical knockout.[11]
