After the harsh defeat on May 7 against Dmitry Bivol at T-Mobile in Las Vegas, Saúl ‘Canelo’ Álvarez has had to endure all kinds of harsh criticism against his style, talents and skills, especially the onslaught of an old acquaintance like Óscar de la Hoya.
The promoter and owner of Golden Boy Promotions has made harsh comments, not only against the Mexican boxer but against his trainer Eddy Reynoso and even Matchroom Boxing, a company with which Canelo has signed for his last fights and those that lie ahead.

It is known that Álvarez’s departure from Golden Boy was not in the best of terms: a complaint involved and harsh accusations del Canelo towards De la Hoya, whom considers an “ambitious” who “has no loyalty”
.
A repetitive criticism of the retired boxer against the unified super middleweight champion is what he does in his time free, the practice of golf; Not only has De la Hoya discredited Canelo for this hobby, the Mexican journalist David Faitelson has also massacred him before public opinion for this reason.
But already fed up with those comments and taking advantage of the fact that he was asked this Monday about the subject, Canelo Álvarez, with his characteristic serious and respectful personality, but very direct in terms of words, gave a Answer on whether golf negatively influences your performance:
“Nothing to do with it. It is better to have love for another sport than for other things”
The message must be deciphered. Days ago Eddie Hearn, president of Matchroom Boxing, hinted that De la Hoya still had a drug addiction because he questioned that the Mexican does not make his decisions and it is his handlers who decide.
So Saúl Álvarez very subtly touched on a delicate point in the life of the retired former “Golden Boy”, who has been hospitalized several times to leave his dangerous and self-destructive addiction to drugs and alcohol.
The boxer next to fulfill 31 years will be in Mexico City this week precisely for the inauguration of his ‘No Golf, No Life’ tournament, which he has proclaimed will serve to motivate, meet and train the new generations of this sport .
Sports and entertainment personalities will be competing in it, although who has not been mentioned.
