After the victory of the Argentina national team against Mexico in Qatar 2022 World Cupcriticized Guadalajara boxer Saúl “Canelo” Álvarez Lionel Messi and removed all the mud.

“Have you seen Messi mopping the floor with our shirt and flag?the 32-year-old Mexican tweeted, referring to a video of the Argentine players celebrating their victory in the locker room.

Canelo’s virtual assault made it clear that the boxer didn’t see the images well: Messi doesn’t clean the floor with his country’s “shirt”, but rather involuntarily kicks it as he takes off a booty.

Even so, Saúl’s gloves didn’t waver as he typed a threat for ten: “I can pray to God I don’t find it!”.

Cesc Fábregas, Leo’s former teammate at Barcelona, ​​explained perfectly what players usually do with the shirts they change from their rivals: “ALL shirts, even the ones we wear ourselves, go ashore and are washed afterwards”.

Those who follow Canelo’s career closely know that this is not his first scandal and it won’t be his last. Let’s review, then, three times in which the best Mexican boxer of the moment was on everyone’s lips.

his first scandal

According to Yahoo Sports, the first time the boxer was involved in a scandal was in October 2011, when his colleague Ulises “Archie” Solis reported that he was the victim of physical assaults on his part.

The former light flyweight champion of the world said he fell out with Canelo at a venue where both would compete. According to Solís, when their tours were matched, Canelo claimed he allegedly spoke to a girlfriend about her.

“Suddenly he began to demand many things from me. She asked me: ‘Why are you with my wife?’ To which I didn’t tell her I don’t even know her. And no more, he hit me with a left left and a right cross, breaking my jaw”, were the statements of Solís to the press.

Archie added that when he stood up, Alvarez lunged again, causing his jaw to break twice.

The former champion sued him for injuries and received an unspecified amount of money from Álvarez four years later, TMZ reported.

revolt in 15

From the oldest to the most recent.

The latest scandal Canelo has been involved in – with the exception of Messi – has to do with his daughter’s 15th birthday Emily Cinnamon.

Apparently, as various local media such as the Heraldo de México and La Opinión reported in October, Canelo had a clash with Eduin Caz, the leader of Grupo Firmein the middle of the festivities.

It all started when Saúl realized that Eduin had “a few too many drinks” and it would end, as seen in a video that came to light in some local media, with the boxer expelling the birthday boy.

Eduin has denied what he said about the alleged quarrel. Álvarez, unlike him, asked for silence.

Bumps in presentation

In turn, it is worth mentioning that in September 2021, before his fight with the American Plant Caleb, Canelo tied pineapples with his colleague.

It was in the presentation of the fight, in the confrontation between the protagonists. The Mexican stood in front of the American, said something to make him angry and Canelo stepped on his stick: he pushed him and everything got out of hand.

Plant aimed a blow at his rival, dodged him and Álvarez, to defend himself, threw a right in his face.

In November, Canelo would beat Plant by knockout.
