Via a translator, Canelo said, “I haven’t talked to him no because he’s just recovering from his surgery. But what I said about him, it wasn’t making a bad way, it was meant to be constructive criticism. I want him to take it that way and get the motivation to get on the right track.”

Both Canelo and Garcia currently train under two-time trainer of the year Eddy Reynoso. The pair share the same gym and spar together occasionally. As Canelo knows what it takes to get to where he is, all he was doing was looking out for his teammate.
