The legendary Mike Tyson referred to the Mexican Saúl “Canelo” Álvarez and the way in which is directing your career. Tyson believes that Canelo should stop choosing the rivals he faces , or in the worst case, fight against boxers according to his level, and that they represent greater danger for him.
“Canelo must stop choosing his rivals. He needs to be with the Charlo (Jermall and Jermell), fight with both of them or with (David) Benavidez “, said the former heavyweight champion on his podcast ‘Hot Boxin’.
Canelo’s rivals
He has criticized Canelo Álvarez in recent years, they are the rivals he has faced. Except for the two fights with Gennady Golovkin, from which he came out well off, the Mexican has not had any risky fights.
His last five fights have passed below the table for precisely this reason. Canelo faced Rocky Fielding, Daniel Jacobs, Sergey Kovalev, Callum Smith and Avni Yildrim. He did not suffer with any. His last fight was the most disappointing, due to the little opposition presented by his rival.
The next fight of the Mexican boxer will be the next one 08 against Billy Joe Saunders (30 – 0). Saúl Álvarez holds a record of 55 – 1-2.
