A jam-packed T-Mobile Arena on the 30th of September rose in enthusiasm with every jab Saul Alvarez took at his opponent. In his attempt to defend his super-middleweight titles, Canelo Alvarez demonstrated his signature precision jabs and brilliant footwork. As the fight aligned with popular predictions, the fighter gave Jermell Charlo a defeat through a unanimous decision.

While the boxing realm rejoiced at the splendid performance put forth by Alvarez, it grew delirious with Charlo’s inability to match his opponent’s prowess. His inability to respond to the immediate dominance exerted by Alvarez has taken his followers into a spiral of disappointment. A huge wave of criticism his way, in the wake of this devastating loss, clouds of uncertainty loom over Charlo’s career. While he navigates through it all, a notable personality in the boxing realm has also joined this bandwagon against him.

Logan Paul’s coach starts a discourse on social media

Taking to his Instagram stories, well-known coach, Milton Lacroix shared a reel that takes scathing digs at ‘Iron Man’ Charlo. The video features a lion that seems to be roaring but the voice that emerges is a passive one. It reads, “The lion that showed up to fight Canelo.”

In the days leading to the Canelo fight, a huge sect of the fighter’s followers pushed his name as a lion who would absolutely annihilate the Mexican fighter. But when reality made its presence, the world knew in a ring if Canelo and Charlo came face-to-face, who would survive?

One user still stood by Charlo. However, expressing their disappointment with the way he fought that night, the user said, “charlo is still a beast. idk why he ran and hugged all night tho smih.”

Another user suggested that in the course of the 12 rounds, Iron Man too landed some punches on his opponent. They commented, “Charlo took a couple power shots to the shoulder the first few rounds and shut down.” According to CompuBox, Canelo landed more punches than his opponent by a margin of 134 to 71. He landed 35% of his punches overall and 40% of his power connects.

Charlo has close ties with the popstar, Chris Brown. In the days leading to the most important fight of his career, he fell back on the pop star’s creation for motivation. One user took scathing digs at Charlo listening to Brown during his training camp. They commented, “knew it was over when he was listening to Chris Brown during training camp.”

Before this crucial fight for Iron Man, he had spoken a great deal about what it meant to him to go against a fighter like Canelo. A fighter touted as one of the best today, he vowed to show Canelo the face of defeat. But on fight night, his words did not meet reality. A user commented, “i can beat canelo man. i been calling canelo out for 5 years” did nothing the whole fight.”

Echoing the same sentiment, a Canelo fan had expected some resistance to be shown by Charlo. But only disappointment came their way. They said, “Man I was going for Canelo, but I was more disappointed in Charlo. Really thought he was gonna back up all that talk.”
