Alvarez apologizes for beating so many Brits

mexican superstar Saul Alvarez during his career he beat many British boxers. Throughout his career, from junior middleweight to super middleweight, Canelo defeated many British fighters, including Ryan Rhodes, Matthew Hutton, Amir Khan, Billy Joe Saunders, Callum Smith, Liam Smith and Rocky Fielding. On Saturday in Mexico, Canelo will defend the undisputed super-middleweight crown against yet another Brit, the mandatory contender. John Ryder. Like Canelo's previous British rivals, Ryder is a clear underdog.

“I apologize to all Brits, but I had to do this,” Canelo said in an interview with Telegraph Sport.

At the same time, Canelo continues to dream that one day he will perform in the UK. There have been talks of a UK title defense in 2023, but at the moment it doesn't seem to be happening yet.

“I have been thinking about this for a long time. I would love to fight in the UK and trust me it will be soon,” Canelo said.

Promoter Eddie Hearn, who works with Canelo on a fight-by-fight basis, would like to host one of the Mexican's fights in a British stadium.

“The plan for Saul is to box all over the world, this Saturday he will perform in front of 50,000 fans in his hometown of Guadalajara, which is what he has always dreamed of, and in addition, he would like to fight in the UK,” said Hearn. “And we would love to bring this fight to one of our national stadiums in front of British fans.”
