It is not news that boxing superstar Canelo Alvarez has an iconic car collection. He reportedly owns a Mustang 500 Eleano, Shelby Mustang, Ferrari 458, Lamborghini Urus, and limited edition Lamborghini Gallardo, among many other luxury cars.
However, one of his most prized possessions is his 2018 Bugatti Chiron. It is one of the fastest production cars in the world, going from 0-100kmph in just 2.5 seconds with a whopping top speed of 261 mph. It also features a two-tone scheme that appears to include Atlantic Blue and French Racing Blue.

Therefore, it came as a surprise to fans as Alvarez apparently decided to sell his $3.7 million car. The Mexican boxer registered the car on duPontREGISTRY.com and listed the car with notes that suggested it had been in the garage. The interior and exterior looked in perfect condition and the odometer recorded 1,520 miles on the car.

Notably, Alvarez did not specify the reason for the sale. Many speculated whether Alvarez was facing financial constraints, but given his recent net worth of $180 million, that seems unlikely.

The fans did not let Alvarez off the hook for this as one fan joked about Alvarez facing financial problems. “Hahaha so if a millionaire sells his car its financial problems hahahahah,” he wrote.
Another fan also made fun of the notion that Alvarez suffered financial problems. “Financial problems? Lmao hell no,” he wrote. Moreover, one fan
stated that maybe Alvarez just wanted the latest Bugatti, saying, “He wants the new Bugatti.”

However, one fan defended Alvarez hilariously, stating that he did not want to become like fellow Bugatti owner and controversial star Andrew Tate. “Doesn’t want to be a clown like Andrew Tate,” he wrote.
The fans definitely had a field day with Alvarez, who might have just been looking to make some space in his garage. However, he has more important things to focus on.
