Canelo Alvarez is set to take on long-time rival Gennady Golovkin in their much-anticipated trilogy fight on September 17. Moreover, Alvarez will be looking to get back to winning ways after his upset loss to light heavyweight champion Dmitry Bivol.

Ahead of his fight with Golovkin, the Mexican boxer can be seen training on his footwork and power in a video. But this did not get the response he was hoping for, as a few fans trolled him over this video.

Fans troll Canelo Alvarez over his training video

Boxing analyst Michael Benson posted a video of Alvarez working on his footwork and head movement ahead of his fight with Gennady Golovkin with the caption, “Canelo Alvarez putting his hand speed and head movement on display in training for the Gennady Golovkin trilogy fight on Sept 17th…“.

However, some fans were not so impressed by this as they started trolling Alvarez. One fan pointed out that Alvarez should focus more on the other aspects of his game rather than just power. He wrote, “I like seeing him working g on other aspects of his game other than power.
It will help him in the rematch with Bivol.”

Notably, another fan also pointed out that Alvarez just has one aspect to his game and that he was exposed in his last fight against Bivol. He wrote, “What will he do when he loses? He is a one-trick pony exposed in his last fight.”

However, there were also fans who praised Alvarez for the skills he showcased in the video, as one fan stated that he was a great fighter who should be appreciated. He wrote, “ Saul@CaneloAlvarez is a great fighter, is he the best ever, no. Is he one of them, yes. He continues to strive for greatness and it’s admirable. Appreciate him whilst we have him! #BeRealBXNG.”

Lastly, another fan stated that this was the reason why he was on the top of the pound-for-pound rankings for such a long time praising his skills. He wrote,” P4P top 10 for a reason”

It looks like there was a mixed reaction from the fans to his training video, while some still feel that Alvarez is overrated and was exposed in his Bivol fight, others are optimistic that he will return to his former glory.
