In an interview with Brian Mazique from Fighthy, Saul Canelo Alvarez did not show respect for his rivals. When asked what made him not interested in fighting Benavidez, Saul Canelo Alvarez closed his eyes and rubbed his tired forehead
Initially, he said he didn’t know how to answer the question. Then he started talking. “The way he speaks, he thinks he is Superman,” Alvarez said. “It is very disrespectful – not only with me, but with everyone.”
“He did nothing. It wasn’t even a champion. It wasn’t even in my class. There were many things that didn’t make sense.”
Saul Canelo Alvarez’s explanation of his reasons for avoiding combat with benavidez was spread and easy to find, making frustrated fans. Benavidez, in fact, was in the Canelo class until the end of 2024, when he climbed in a partially heavy weight, because Canelo did not want to fight with him. And Benavidez won quite a lot of achievements-the four matches he lived with the victory over the Caleb plant, Demetrius Andrade, Oleksandr Gvozdyk and David Morrell JR were sufficient to place it in various lists of credible pounds.
In the past, Canelo also fought in the 79.3 kilograms and even said he wants to be caught in the Explorer class. And it has a non -SMOOTH relationship with previous opponents – Caleb Plant and Gennady Golovkin, who repeatedly brought the failure of the Canelo drug test in 2018, was also considered “disrespectful”.
The next opponent Canelo is William Schoel, which he will face to reunite all the 76.2 kilograms of May 5. Although the carol genealogy remains behind Benavidez, Canelo has better words for his future opponents.
“It’s world champion and I want to become an undeniable champion
Although Canelo’s explanation about why he did not want to fight with the “Mexican monster” tends not to pass the smell test, he said one thing from the interview that could be able to explain the real reason why he prefers not to test against Benavidez: “At this moment in my career, I can do anything.”
