BREAKING NEWS: Canelo Álvarez Rejects $70 Million Offer

“He’s scared,” says David Benavidez

David Benavidez, known as The Mexican Monster, has made bold claims about Saúl “Canelo” Álvarez. According to Benavidez, Canelo rejected a $70 million fight offer because he didn’t want to risk his legacy.

Speaking on Cigar Talk, Benavidez stated:
“Canelo doesn’t want to fight me because he’s scared. Look at him—he’s focused on making the biggest paychecks instead of taking on real challenges.”

Reports suggest the rejected offer didn’t include PPV earnings, which could have significantly increased Canelo’s total payout.

Canelo’s Focus on Money

Benavidez is not the only fighter Canelo has declined to face. According to reports, Canelo also rejected negotiations with Terence Crawford, demanding a nine-digit purse, leaving many fans questioning his current priorities in boxing.

Benavidez’s Next Move

While Canelo remains elusive, David Benavidez is preparing for his upcoming fight against David Morrell Jr. on February 1st at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas. With victory in sight, Benavidez aims to challenge Artur Beterbiev for the light heavyweight championship.
