The Mexican paid tribute to the best representatives of the heavyweight
The absolute world champion in the second middleweight Saul “Canel” Alvarez believes that representatives of the heavyweight Tyson Fury And Oleksandr Usyk should be in the top of the best boxers in the world, regardless of the weight category.
“There are a lot of good boxers out there. I think Tyson Fury deserves a seat [в топе рейтинга pound-for-pound]. Usyk, I think, too,” Canelo said.
Representatives of Fury and Usyk are negotiating a fight for the title of undisputed heavyweight champion of the world. The fight is tentatively scheduled for April 29th.
In early November, Alvarez underwent surgery on his left wrist. Canelo plans to return to the ring in May. Saul’s possible opponent is WBO mandatory contender John Ryder.
In turn, Alvarez wants an interim fight in May, and then he is aiming for a rematch with WBA light heavyweight title holder Dmitry Bivol.
