On July 20th, in a once-in-a-lifetime contest, Jake Paul will share the ring with Mike Tyson. The fight, expected to be an exhibition, will take place at the AT&T Stadium in Texas and be aired on Netflix. In this context, Canelo Alvarez, who has been called out by Jake Paul multiple times, revealed why he would not watch Paul vs. ‘Iron’ Mike.

Ahead of his return to Las Vegas against Jaime Munguia, the undisputed Super-Middleweight champion of the world almost echoed Bernard Hopkins who harshly spoke about Tyson’s upcoming match against ‘The Problem Child’. Well, here is what Alvarez said.

Why is Canelo Alvarez uninterested in watching Mike Tyson vs. Jake Paul?

Despite the promotion being done, Golden Boy Promotions Partner, Bernard Hopkins recently told Fight Hub TV that he would not watch Jake Paul and Mike Tyson share the ring. Expecting Paul vs. Tyson to be “more of a sideshow” with some blood and sweat, Hopkins said he would rather watch two turtles compete. “I won’t watch it. I could watch two turtles run and feel more excited,” Hopkins told Fight Hub TV. And now Canelo Alvarez almost echoed him.

During his latest interaction with TMZ, Canelo Alvarez, who “deserves” $150 Million to fight David Benavidez, was asked if Paul vs. Tyson interested him by any chance. In his reply, Alvarez said, “Not at all. With Netflix being involved, yes, that’s good. But, not [interested] in that kind of fight. I think it’s more [of a] show than a fight.”

I know you want it. I’m repping Puerto Rico, you’re repping Mexico, so it’s Puerto Rico vs Mexico. I want Canelo. I want all the biggest names. Like I said, I’m the face of this sport,” Jake Paul had announced.
