Why does Canelo struggle with his conditioning so much?

[IAmABoxingGuru]

Every fight he takes his usual mid fight break and just cruises by in order to catch his breath for the later rounds. Is he not training to his fullest potential?

[TheSlickster]

I think it’s the way he unleashes his punches and constantly tries to reposition himself(counter puncher habit)

[Golden Boi 360]

he fights in explosive spurts. just like in a video game, after a combo your energy meter has to refill.

Covid.....

[buddyr]

he walks around at over 200 lbs. Weight cuts are a mf.

[Sctrojan]

Stocky build and muscle mass. Same reason AJ's stamina is **** too. Genetics probably factor in as well.

When Canelo Alvarez fought Mayweather, it was his fitness which also lost him the fight. Alvarez for me lacks gears, he does not have many gears which he can go through 'So all these people saying he is some sort of explosive fighter, are way off'.

Alvarez is a one paced, systematic fighter. Unfortunately not many fighters can destabilize Alvarez enough to force him to go through the gears or change his pace dramatically.

I don't think his endurance or overall fitness is bad, but it is not elite. Fighters like Carl Froch or Joe Calzaghe had elite level endurance, and vivid gears which you could witness change a fight.
