Saul Alvarez explains why he is not interested in the Olympics

Saul Alvarez (53-1-2, 36 KOs) excludes his participation in the Olympic Games. One of the best professional boxers on the planet told Fox Sports about his attitude to the participation of professionals at the Olympics.

“If I wanted to participate in the Games, I would not become a professional. Having become the world champion, I reached the top, thank God, I did it. Now let others dream of flying to Tokyo in 2021 and taking away medals from young fighters... That would be wrong on my part,” Canelo said.

Saul Alvarez in his last fight stopped Sergey Kovalev, and won the championship belt in his fourth weight category. It is still unknown who will be the next rival of the Mexican star. Possible options include world middleweight champion Billy Joe Saunders and a third meeting with Gennady GGG Golovkin.
