“I think Mayweather when he fought He was against Canelo, Canelo didn’t win any rounds, right? I think Mayweather created a monster in many ways”
In conversation with talkSPORT, Hatton also highlighted the figure that Canelo represents for children and future generations who want to dedicate themselves to this sport, with the premise that if you fall you get up.
“It is an example for many young people that if they beat you, it does not mean that your career is over. That defeat can make or break someone and it made Canelo”, mentioned the ‘Hitman’.
