The P4P King, Canelo Alvarez, is still at the top of the boxing world. However, his head movements and his quick punches proved futile in front of two professional boxers. Out of the 62 bouts he’s had in his career, these two men are none other than, the legendary boxer, Floyd ‘Money’ Mayweather, and the current WBA Light Heavyweight Champion, Dmitry Bivol. And recently Fight Hub TV asked Canelo Alvarez which opponent out of these two boxers turned out to be the tougher one. Now, Alvarez was as humble as ever and answered the question with complete honesty.

Canelo Alvarez is currently preparing for his next fight against John Ryder. It is important for Alvarez to win this fight because he’s going to fight in Mexico after a long span of twelve years. Now, especially after David Benavidez vs. Caleb Plant‘s fight, many fans urged Canelo Alvarez to fight against Benavidez in his next bout.

In the interview with Fight Hub TV, Canelo was asked when he fought against Mayweather and Bivol, which fight was the more difficult one out of the two? So, Alvarez replied, “Uh I think both are similar, just Bivol is bigger so I think Bivol.
