Mexican boxing superstar Canelo Alvarez has catapulted to fame in recent years. Putting together a professional record of 42-0-1, the 23-year-old Guadalajara native continues to captivate the boxing world as he heads into the biggest fight of his career. Set to meet fellow undefeated champion Floyd Mayweather Junior, the current WBC and WBA Light Middleweight Champion is truly confident in his ability to take down the 36-year-old Mayweather, even if the odds are against him. The thing that separates boxing from other sports is that on a given night, any fighter, no matter how steep the odds, can take down any opponent with enough preparation and determination. Canelo Alvarez is undoubtedly included since his prep has been strong and his confidence is unwavering.
"I'm a fighter with great mental strength," Alvarez said when asked about the task of preparing for undefeated Floyd Mayweather. "I'm not going to fight the fight that Mayweather wants. I'm going to fight the fight that I need to. There have been numerous tips and numerous people offering advice. I appreciate it, because it all comes with good feelings from the heart. But some of it we'll apply and some things we won't. We know what we need to accomplish."
