Canelo: I Beat The Best and critics argue they don’t look the same as before

At the age of 30, Mexican superstar Saul “Canelo” Alvarez is motivated to become the first Mexican boxer to be an undisputed four-belt world champion.

In December, he captured the WBC, WBA super middleweight titles with a domination of Callum Smith for a twelve-round win.

He will be back in Miami on Saturday night, when he takes on mandatory world champion Avni Yildirim at the Hard Rock Stadium.

If he wins, Canelo will return to the ring on May 8 in a unification clash with WBO World Champion Billy Joe Saunders.

And a win over Saunders could lead to a crash with IBF World Champion Caleb Plant.

When his career finally comes to an end, Canelo aspires to be seen as one of the best fighters in boxing history.

“When I retire, we’ll see [where I land in history], right now I’m making my career, I’m writing history and we’ll see where I am when I retire … yes, you have to look at it based on wins, based on numbers and championships, this is how it’s done be done, ”Canelo said to Erika Montoya.

In recent years, Canelo has come under fire from many critics – for not believing he has to face the very best.

Canelo disagrees, explaining that he’s the best out there and that they just look.

“Almost all criticism is unfair. Because if I beat the best, they say the opponent didn’t look the same as in the past. Why is that happening? Because with me they have an opponent who doesn’t let them do anything, an opponent who takes them out. [The critics] trying to find the weak side for everything, they never give credit. But I’m used to that, ”Canelo said.
