He wrote, “Canelo Alvarez’s opponent in his 10th fight was 0-0, and whom after defeat, never fought again. In my 4th fight I’m taking on a pound for pound decorated fighter who has won on the biggest stages and is considered one of the top welterweights ever.”

Canelo, in his 10th fight, battled Javier Martinez, who was a debutant back then. The future P4P star put on a classic beating and defeated Martinez via a T/KO. Post that fight, Martinez never took up the ring space again.
