Canelo Alvarez has always been outspoken about his team and hasn’t backed away from criticizing his teammates when needed. He is one of the most active fighters in the existing trend and despite achieving so much in the sport, Alvarez doesn’t seem to have declined his hunger for earning more.

That said, he had advised Ryan Garcia to stop wasting talent when the lightweight star was out of plans on returning to action. While Garcia has now parted ways with Team Canelo, Alvarez doesn’t seem to have changed his approach. He recently stated how boxers in the gym lack discipline. Canelo also put former heavyweight champion, Andy Ruiz Jr, on that list.

In a chat with ES News, Canelo Alvarez said, “A lot of fighters come to the gym and really good fighter and keep come all the time. But if you come today, train 20 mins, and go and then you don’t come four days or three days. And then next day you say, Ay, I come in at 12 and you come in at 2. You need to be disciplined.”

He added, “Andy Ruiz too. He comes one day and then not come.”

However, it’s been almost a year since we have heard from ‘The Destroyer’.

Canelo Alvarez and his gym are going through a few changes

Canelo Alvarez’s recent statements on his fellow fighters have urged Ryan Garcia to respond. ‘KingRy’, who is now working with Joe Cusumano, accused Reynoso of being absent from the fight camps. Although Garcia expressed his respect for his ex-trainer, he didn’t hesitate to express himself via a tweet.

He quoted- “Canelo doesn’t know the facts, The first camp I had with eddy went great then everything went bad he only showed up two weeks before Fonseca fight and that’s when I first asked my manager to talk to him about finding a new trainer. Vergil Ortiz left bc eddy never showed,” wrote the former Interim lightweight champion on Twitter.

Ryan Garcia will return to action against Emmanuel Tagoe on April 19. Representing Joe Cusumano’s camp, it will be interesting to see whether he can show some improved features in his boxing skills. Because Ryan Garcia suffered his maiden knockdown against Luke Campbell in his last fight.
