As Canelo enjoys the massage, Fernanda Gomez clicks a photo which catches the undisputed Super-Middleweight champion lying on his face. “You’ll pay for this,” Canelo is heard saying with a smile on his face as Fernanda casually shows him the pic. And how could she disobey her beloved husband’s command when he is literally an undisputed champion in the sport? Therefore, while laughing, Gomez immediately replied, “I’ll delete it.”

Meanwhile, as the camera focused on Gomez, she briefly spoke about her marriage with Canelo Alvarez. “This will be our 10th year together. It’s the date we have tattooed. November 28, 2014,” Gomez, who runs a boutique salon, said while showing a tattoo on her wrist. On the other hand, after practice, Canelo Alvarez boasted of his daughter.

It is certainly hard for any boxer to leave his family and train somewhere far away from them. Therefore, it was nothing short of a blessing for Canelo Alvarez to have his family around as he prepared for the 65th professional fight of his career where he would defend his Undisputed Super-Middleweight title for the fourth time. Anyway, as little Mia held the heavy bag for her father, Canelo Alvarez lovingly called her the coach before instructing Mia to even dry his eyes with a towel.

My daughter is all about her dad. For her, her dad is everything. She’s proud of her dad. She’s a daddy’s girl,” said Alvarez affectionately. “Always wants to be near me. She wants to play. She defends me against her mom,” he added as the camera spotted little Mia. So, what did you think of Canelo Alvarez’s heartwarming interaction with his family?
