However, Demetrius Andrade expressed his desire in fighting Alvarez and it didn’t go down very well. During the post-fight press conference, ‘Boo Boo’ made his way to the arena and grabbed some mic-time with Canelo Alvarez. It appeared to be a friendly chatter in the beginning.

However, both men got involved in a verbal battle. While Andrade claimed himself to be Canelo Alvarez’s fan in the start, he also vowed to beat him in a fight.

“I Know, I know that [You are my fan]. Man, you fight with nobody. You are a champion, but you fight with nobody, man. Get the f*** out of here,” said Canelo Alvarez.

Despite reigning over the super middleweight division, Alvarez has hinted at moving down to the 160 lbs weight class again. But the four-division champion’s primary aim is to unify the belts at 168 lbs. Hence, Caleb Plant will probably be Alvarez’s next opponent. This means Demetrius Andrade will not get the fight anytime soon. But can it happen in the future?
