Canelo Alvarez Responds to Mike Tyson’s Prediction on His Fight With Billy Joe Saunders

The pound-for-pound king of boxing, Canelo Alvarez, will walk into the ring on May 8 for a massive title unification fight against Billy Joe Saunders. This fight will play a pivotal role in both the fighter’s extensive careers, as it will align the winner for a gigantic undisputed super-middleweight title fight.

A bout between Alvarez and Saunders has become a talk of the town for obvious reasons. Also, many hotshots of the sport have given their predictions on this fight.

‘The Baddest Man on the Planet’ Mike Tyson himself unveiled a shocking prediction for the 168 lbs unification contest. He asserted that his battle will not last over 1-2 rounds, and Alvarez will be the clear winner.

In a chat with ESNews, Alvarez responded to the same. He said, “I hope so! I hope so, 1-2 rounds let’s go.”

In his last fight, the Mexican boxer showcased his brilliance by annihilating the Turkish pugilist Avni Yildirim. Right from the first bell, Alvarez walked ‘Mr. Robot’ down with constant hits to the head and body. His skill sets were too much to handle for ‘Mr. Robot’ and the referee concluded the contest after round 3, to save Yildirim from further damage.

With that fight, the 30-year-old directly got lined up to face the Brit Saunders on May 8.
