    Yao Ming learned English in a year.
    Alvarez feels no need to learn English.

    Why bother when America panders and even offers Spanish option in customer service hotlines.

    Whites doing it to themselves and silently begging to be outbred & invaded

          Delivery, personality, and charisma are king.

          Ricardo Mayorga didn't care to learn English. Imagine if he had been a very good fighter

            To be a superstar at the Mayweather level or should I say in this generation, you have to be more than a boxer. You have to be known for your actions both in and out of the ring (good or bad).

            This is the age of social media and we also have a rising combat sport to compete against that the previous generations didn’t, MMA. You have to appeal with more than your fists. That’s how McGregor literally fast tracked his way to stardom.

            You can’t have one without the other to remain a superstar.

              Mayorga never as big as canelo. But guy was pure entertainment. Calling fighters ******, straight forward fighter (meaning he wasn’t never all talk) , smoking cigarettes was classic in the ring . I remember even the African American community was behind him for while . Don king did his talking

              Same way Oscar de la Hoya DOES canelo USA talking.

              They need to put canelo on jimmy kimmel , good morning America , Sports center lol


              Mayorga is a main prime example that controversy SALES. But canelo ain’t that.

                Yea

                I don't know how Canelo does it

                He's a very good fighter but Mexico has many.

                Is the draw of a Ginger Irish Look that strong

                  I think he is just a tier below Money Mayweather when it comes to notoriety and recognition. Canelo is probably the more popular of the two; Particularly among North Americans and especially among his loyal Mexican fanbase but Money May is by far the more infamous of the two and known the world over for being just the opposite by playing the role of villainy.

                      There's still time where Alvarez can make it happen.

                      Floyd became a huge star at what 30 years old
