Canelo Alvarez is regarded as one of the greatest boxers of this generation. With a highly active boxing stint over the past few years, Alvarez has cemented his spot as the number one pound-for-pound fighter today. He often makes it to the news with his in-ring performances and dominating boxing wins.

Both the men engaged in a fun task here as Alvarez took Bensinger for a ride in his car. The latter relished his time in this short session, but he was left startled when the Mexican boxing great drove his car up the wall.

Canelo looks for enjoyment in such activities that give him a true adrenaline rush. Apart from ‘Sweet Science’, he relishes his time playing golf, spending time with his loved ones, and more.

Despite his other interests, Canelo’s main focus always remains on getting better inside his boxing gym. Alongside coach Eddy Reynoso, he spends substantial time improving the craft of his prowess.

Instead of Makabu, Canelo might line himself up for a fight against Jermall Charlo for Cinco De Mayo weekend.

If this fight happens, needless to say, it’ll be bigger than Alvarez’s potent clash with Makabu. This is because Charlo has been calling for a fight with Canelo for years, and he’ll be eager to settle the rivalry.
