Famous American boxer Mike Tyson sharply criticized the absolute champion in the second middleweight Saul "Canelo" Alvarez for his reluctance to fight with the undefeated holder of the WBC interim belt David Benavidez.

Earlier, journalist Ricardo Celisa reported that the Mexican refused $55 million for the fight with Benavidez.

“I can’t believe it... Alvarez turned down a 60 million fight with Benavidez. David is a great fighter. Is Canelo so afraid of losing? Doesn't he want to give the fans this fight? You don't respect the legacy of all the greatest Mexican fighters. They fought with the best of the best, without focusing on the money factor. It's a shame for boxing, a shame for Mexico.

If I were him, I would take the fight with Benavidez and prove to everyone that I am the strongest fighter. Canelo is talented, but unfortunately he lacks courage. It’s a shame,” Marca quotes Tyson as saying.
