Mike Tyson’s advice to Canelo Alvarez
Tyson was in attendance for Bivol’s fight against Alvarez at the T-Mobile Arena in Paradise, Nevada.
After the fight, he took to social media to give a breakdown of the fight. Moreover, Tyson also gave some solid advice on what Alvarez should have concentrated on.
Talking about Alvarez not focussing on jabs, Tyson said, “I used to think, if Canelo was using his jab effectively, hard. The guy wouldn’t have been able to come in. Coz the guy was coming in because he wasn’t worried about Canelo’s jab. So, he got more aggressive, and he got brave. If he’s not jabbing, he has no defense”
