Authoritative American coach Teddy Atlas never tires of criticizing the absolute champion in the second middleweight Saul Alvarez. This time, the specialist expressed the opinion that the Mexican star is not the best boxer in his division.
“Obviously, Alvarez can be considered number one, but he has two defeats and two draws. You could say that he has four defeats. I believe that until a fighter has lost, you cannot understand how good he is. So it was with Saul. You can lose and then get better, although that doesn't happen with Canelo.
Benavidez continues to get better, he is bigger and stronger. I will say that with his 27-0 record, he is ahead of Canelo,” Atlas said on his YouTube channel.
