Absolute world champion in second middleweight Saul Alvarez I agree with my critics who claim that in his last fights he did not perform his best.
According to the Mexican, the reason for the deterioration in his performance was a hand injury, due to which he was unable to train fully.
“They are right, I couldn’t prepare for these fights 100% because of the hand. I couldn't train at 100%, but now I can work at full strength. Eddie Reynoso and I work on our paws and so on - you've seen the video.
When you don't have full training camps, you're not 100% confident in what you're doing. But at the moment I’m happy and glad that I can prepare 100%, work with Eddie on the pads and hit the heavy bags hard. So that gives me confidence,” Alvarez said in an interview with Showtime Sports.
