Mike Tyson Goes Off on Canelo Alvarez for Trying to Cherrypick Berlanga and Munguia and Ducking Benavidez Like the Plague: “Canelo is a Shame to the Sport of Boxing and Mexico!”

https://www.marca.com/en/boxing/2024...c118b45b0.html I can't believe what I just heard, Canelo rejected to fight Benavidez, who is a tremendous fighter, young, strong, with hunger and Mexican pride," Tyson noted. "What's wrong with Canelo? Is he afraid of losing? Doesn't he want to give the fans the fight they want to see? "Don't you want to give the fans the fight they want to see? "Do you not respect the legacy of the great Mexican champions who faced the best regardless of the money?... Canelo a shame to the sport of boxing and Mexico. "If I were him, I would accept the fight with Benavidez and show the world that he is the best. But it seems he doesn't have the courage to do it; It is a shame, because he has he lacks heart."

Well, people want to see the fight badly. If they think bullying Nell will make nelo.take the fight then, bullying is what people will do I understand But they never expect anything from the guys they root for. The Not The Face Of Boxingelo is the center of their universe.

Yes, I think Nelo greater than tyson. Tyson saying Nell is scared of benny, and Nell might be. But Nell isn't a coward of course. If you fight bivo l and munguia, that isn't coward material People expect more from Nelo.

Nelo's resume crushes Mike's :lol1: Mike never beat a legit dangerous fighter in his entire career. Holy humbled him A younger Holmes would have crushed Mike. Lenny basically ended his career Everyone else were just glorified bums. Yes, I think Nelo greater than tyson. Tyson saying Nell is scared of benny, and Nell might be.

Tyson is 100 percent correct. But I'm sure this will trigger Canelo's delusional fans. Nelo's resume crushes Mike's :lol1: Mike never beat a legit dangerous fighter in his entire career.

Nelo will fight Benny at a cw of 166lb, once Benny is a 175lb titilist

About time some big names call out his BS. Canelo might get his feelings hurt and try to challenge him to a match like he tried to do with marques.:haha:

Are they real Tyson quotes? I skeptical he went in so hard. What's the source?

Yeah deflect from what the man is saying about Canelo. There is simply no excuse that can be made for Canelo ducking Benavidez. That may be true, but it’s also true Benavidez and Tyson are coke heads. Kinda hard to take what drug abusers say is true.

A shame to the sport of boxing, says the guy with his track record. Not to mention very recently he trained and supported the MMA fighter against the boxer who is his namesake. A shame to the sport of boxing indeed.

I guess he should bite a guys ear off when a fight isn’t going his way to get Mike’s respect. Maybe, first he needs to grow a pair so can sign and get in the ring with the guy.

Nel o ducking benevidez, for now but munguia is pretty good so it's hard to see Nell as a coward really. He's a tease, as he's marinating Benny fight....But he's wary of benny Who do you think would give canelo more problems? Who has a better chance of whooping canelo? I think he's afraid of losing another fight and that's why he's choosing munguia. Wait for his excuse of he couldn't ko ryder and munguia did. I don't know when he's ask about the mexican thing how he's going to react, but I'm looking forward for that question ane answer.

Tyson likes Benavidez because they share the same coke dealer Yeah deflect from what the man is saying about Canelo. There is simply no excuse that can be made for Canelo ducking Benavidez.

Maybe but he’ll need to build up the courage to do it lmao Put some Clenbuterol in that ear, and you'll see Canelo ready with fork and knife.

Well...we said Benavidez is the next logical. NSB kept yelling for Canelo to fight Crawford. Which likely contributed to Canelo just saying F it, I'll just go another way entirely. Hey, not everyone here. I want him to fight either Claressa Shields to Inoue, both with stipulations and with pocket judges.
