Canelo Alvarez is very close to face Gennady Golovkin for the third time, but the Mexican boxer still hurts the defeat against Dmitry Bivol, and he relived that moment where he lost for the second time in his career. It was in an exclusive interview with the Mexican network TUDN where he acknowledged that it still hurts.
“Well, I’m fine physically and mentally, we are in a sport where you win and lose, especially when you risk this kind of thing. I feel good, eager to return, enthusiastic, with the same enthusiasm training. Obviously it hurt at first, one is not prepared to lose, it still hurts, but these are things that happen, just as when we win we celebrate, when we lose as men we also have to accept it, it had to happen and move forward,” Canelo said.

Saul Alvarez stood by his analysis of that night where not only was it evident that he can also lose, but that they already found a way to put him in the spotlight.
“We didn’t miss anything, I’ve always said that if they beat me they are better than me, the truth is that he didn’t beat me for being better, I simply ran out of air because of things that happened in camp, I didn’t say it because people can say they are pretexts, I don’t normally do that. I lost and it was my turn to lose that night, many things happened that shouldn’t have happened, I take that as learning so that it doesn’t happen again in any of my fights, you learn from everything,” Canelo.
