I won all my 17 amateur fights using Canelo's style only. I truly believe that he is the greatest fighter of our generation 💪 No debates!
Good stuff!
Uh huh until he loses against a 35yo golovkin
@@sylvesterrr6712 then he evolved
That’s so cool!!! What kind of training did u do to acquire his boxing style? I want to try it too!!
*Canelo is fighter of the Decade without question.*
What decade
@@somedude3977 this decade
I think Crawford has to be in the discussion too. He is so under appreciated
@@ersula9769wrong in so many ways
@@ersula9769 I’m a bud fan but man he hasn’t even come close to fighting the calibre of opponents canelo has
Def top 3 of fighter's this decade. His ability to stay focused for so long is an ability not many fighter's have. Gr8 documentary 🙏
Probably because of his defensive skills, less debilitating punches to the head equals more focus maybe? 😅
@curlyfryactual as a former fighter I def agree. By the age of 26 my head couldn't take the shots anymore. I was told I had a hard head and to take a punch so I could dish out havoc. Those were horrible trainers but looking back my reaction time was very slow so that was the only way I could win. You live in Canada by chance??? I'm now a trainer and I've learned so much more.
@curlyfryactual I think they used me up cause I was always sparring pro's. Mind you I was a crusier weight and these guys were pros that weighed much less. But they were Champs and i was a kid. My head will never be right but that's OK. This is what it took for me to be a man and not be bullied anymore. I thank God for every punch that made me the man I am 2day.
His combinations are so clean
Canelo's style is just incredible, a master in the ring and able to adapt to any style and counter it. Definitely one of the greatest of all time and happy to see a legend in my time fighting in the ring!
He couldnt counter Floyd style though🤣
@@draken7344 Floyd’s the best ever so when you dummies laugh at him for losing to Floyd your actually taking credit away from Floyd….
@@draken7344 nobody could counter floyd's style you idiot what does that have to do with the video? canelo was young when he fought floyd nowhere near as good as he is now
@@draken7344 he fought a very young canelo behave
started boxing this year and i’ve been watching a lot of boxers and your videos . you helped a lot ❤
Thank you! Glad to hear the content is helping you.
Yes, he is the best of our era.
@Bo Bo What drug test did he fail? Do you have the evidence? And who did he duck? Is your estrogen so high that is causing you to write incoherent statements?
@@marco477utep he tested positive for clenbuterol, the rest of his gym has also been caught on steroids
@@elijahebbert6884 Dr. Daniel Eichner, head of the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA)-accredited SMRTL lab, agreed that Canelo’s samples were within the range expected from tainted meat, stating:“These values are all within the range of what is expected from meat contamination."
Please inform your self. You look like a total moron
@Bo Bo … People can disagree, that includes Bivol and Mayweather, but his receipts at the the gate and others of us have our own opinion.. Canelo is the best of this era that’s why he sits at the top of the heap!!
There’s nothing wrong with having a few losses on your résumé, all the greats (Duran, Hagler, Robinson, Ali) have lost at one time or another…It’s the guys with the 0 that are suspect to me becuz, no fighter is perfect especially when your opponent is a UFC fighter 🤔
WTF does that?
@@elijahebbert6884 Nery popped 2017 and went to Reynoso gym 2019 nice try though and Valdez was for phentermine which is on the banned list because it kills hunger but it's not on the ped list but nice try 😉 still a bad thing to do though. As for clenbuterol Erik Morales, Francisco Vargas, canelo 7 other boxers and 10+ Mexican soccer players popped for traces of clenbuterol so WADA had to investigate and turns out reports of Mexico injecting it's cattle with clenbuterol was true and that would explain 20+ Mexican athletes having traces of clen so WADA raised the legal limit by a fraction for all countries since China was also having this problem with it's athletes. it was actually a bigger issue than little canelo Álvarez but the boxing community is so dumb combined y'all have an IQ of 50 so you never researched any of this 😂
Waiting for it , thank you for helping i am studying everyboxer i can study and your videos are helping so much
That's great to hear Ali! I'm glad they are helping you. Enjoy the breakdown!
Loved this breakdown and analysis-love Canelo’s head movement and creative flow on his combinations once he cuts loose. Very beautiful set ups to the liver shot.
Most exciting fighter in the modern age. So dynamic and beautiful.
Great video Jamie! Canelo has evolved so much
Thanks Zico! 👊 Without a doubt!
Great video. Canelo is an exciting elite boxer. A one all-time great.
Reupload of the Canelo video I posted a couple of weeks ago. I've made some edits and should hopefully stay up this time! If you could please LIKE👍the video it will really help out to push this video again in the YT algorithm to more people. (Watching the video again will also really help, even if you watched the first upload). As always thanks for all the support everyone! Enjoy! 👊 Original edit is on Patreon)
Pls do a video on why canelo lost to bivol ...
Best regards from india 🙏🏼
It has so much info that it *is* worth watching a second time
@@TRex-fu7bt I hv watched his videos multiple times ....
@@TRex-fu7bt Thank you!
@BoxingLife I agree, this fight is well worth a second look as to why he lost.
Your videos are high quality. I love the accent.
I try to replicate his style of
Mexican Boxing, by being a pressure fighter who loves to counter punch, constantly cutting off the ring while walkig down my opponent, bringing my rear foot forward with a tight high gaurd followed by my lead foot. The high gaurd traps as well are purely top level, the high gaurd jab mix up and the high gaurd distance deception constantly baits shots which sets me up for counters, I condition my opponent with certain punches to see how they react then switching it up with feints to draw out the expected reaction to then throw big power punches, putting my entire bodyweight into it. The feints and set up constantly keep the opponent thinking and the mix of different looks with different stances always keeps my opponent wondering. My head and forearm control when up close is used to prevent counters after throwing a combination, overall this style is class and with more sparring experience with this I'll be able to develop it even more.
Yes great fighter... La Era del CANELO.. real boxing 🥊 FANS know what time it is...
beautiful Analysis! Respect
Glad you enjoyed it!
Excellent analysis and film footage. Really nice work putting this vid. Together.
One of the best boxers ever. You touched on the point that make some masters at their craft, whatever it it.
Canelo said when he learned something new, I would think about it all the way home, I would think about constantly, while I’m sleeping. If you ever meet someone who is a master at something they will have this trait.
The ability to perform the task well, a love of refinement and perfection of the task, a drive to constantly improve.
When this all comes together they say the person is gifted and may become a master.
What I saw watching all Canelo’s fights from the start,, was that he was always improving. Each fight was better than the last one.
Canelo is a master and boxing fans a lucky to live in a time when we can enjoy excellent camera work an coverage and discussion like this about his mastery of the game.
Canelo is certainly one of the most validated boxers of recent history... dudes a beast 💪
Love your videos! Thank you for this!
Another banger of a video!
Keep putting out quality content.. brilliant shit mate
Great breakdown 👍 love Canelo's boxing style. His style has always reminded me of a mix between African American style & Mexican style. His defense & reflexes are elite as well as his offense & pressure.
I know what you mean but there's no such thing as African-American style. Matter of fact most black American boxers don't even have that style. Not Tyson, Foreman, Holyfield, SRL SRR, Joe Frazier, Ken Norton, Aaron Pryor, Meldrick Taylor, Porter, Spence, Norris, Hagler the list goes on and on and on and on....
@@la-do-ra-ch6810 I think what you or me may deem "African American style" is subjective. From my years of watching Boxing there's certain attributes that make up what I perceive as African American style & I think Canelo has a lot of those qualities in his game. Defensively responsible & elusive being some of the main qualities. I'm not saying you're wrong but when I think of Tyson I don't think "African American style" I think of fighters like Floyd, Sweet pea, Ward, etc. I respect your opinion & perspective though 👍
@@phoraonesinatra african american as in movement right
There's no such thing as a Mexican or African style, every boxer is unique. These are just stereotypes made up to sell fights.
@@phoraonesinatra Yes but you also understand that most Black American fighters aren't like that, right? The term a lot of people use to describe that style is a "slick defensive fighter". But the reality is that most aren't like that. The only country that comes to mind where you can say 90% of boxers have that style is probably CUBA. But the US is not that. People just like to use labels to create groups and identities but that's never been the reality in US.
great breakdown as usual
A great breakdown as usual. He really used the arm punching against Bivol, it wasn´t enough though. Canelo´s main advantage is that he is a very complete fighter. Some fighters are very good in certain areas and try to exploit them. Canelo is proficient in most and that can give him the edge facing lots of different styles.
Canelo is the best in my books ❤🥊🥊
I love Canelo Alvarez Boxing style.🇵🇭🇲🇽🇦🇺
Canelo era fighter of the decade 🇲🇽🥊
This decade just started, and there were such fighters as Pacman, Floyd, Fury and others in the previous one. What decade you are talking about?
Great Video. Counter puncher pressure figter Body Snatcher. feints traps set ups head movement and Defense specialist can out box u and beat u up canelo is good at everthing for me his a aggressive counter puncher but that dosent even scratch the surface of what canelo is good at his a master of counter punching body punching combination punching his expert at setting traps make his opponent guess wher the punch is gonna land head or body block the head your body gonna suffer block the body your head gonna suffer. Canelo is smarter than given credits for
Awesome video, thank you.
Glad you liked it! Thanks!
Son proud to be Mexican and have canelo represent boxing
. 💯
Yes One of the best 👍💯
@10:19 When you say in his change of entry when he is coming in with this combination that was great until Bivol because with Bivol he started doing the same combination to come in over and over again after 3rd around!
I think that’s one of the things if the rematch happens he will fix and recalculate!
PLEASE DO A VIDEO ON JESSE "BAM" RODRIGUEZ AS I SOUTHPAW THE BREAKDOWN WOULD BE MOST APPRECIATED, THANK YOU
Canelo Alvarez 👑
This is the Canelo era
Facts 💯
you earned a sub my g
Thank you! Welcome!
YEA I LOVE HOW HE TEACHES THE STYLE UR JUST YAPPING
Nvm i knocked someout out with this video thanks you
I legit searched this topic everywhere
When i watch floyd and canelo box, i realize just how beautiful boxing is.
Beautiful violence is the sweet science 🥊 my second love lol
cotto vs margarito. the bull and matador, made all the more intriguing and tragic because no one knew the mexican had loaded gloves and he ruined cotto that night. he was never the same
Could you elaborate on the waist movements he does when moving back? At 14:40
Very good video! Could you do Tommy Hearns next as he had a very good style for longer limbed fighters?
👌
Love your channel :) would be great to see videos like this for some female fighters, like Katie Taylor for example
Canelo would destroy Katie Taylor
Champ!
Great video 👏
my boxing coach is always telling me to square my shoulders with my opponent, feet almost pointing forward and it never made any sense to me.. but watching canelo fight I kinda get what he wants
ARRIBA MEXICO ! 🔥🥊
So you’re telling me canelo is actually skilled and isn’t only good because of his hair colour?
Hey @boxing life what do you mean by beating old time greats? Cotton was 35 when he fought canelo, kovalev and ggg were 36 and 37 respectively. That’s not old. Old is Pacquiao fighting Márquez at 40 or Crawford beating 39 year old gamboa
I think he meant all time greats but his accent makes it sound like he said old
@@gils3066 you sure dawg?
Why didn't Canelo use all those in his fight with Bivol?
canelo's hand was broken against bivol
No style is perfect. No boxer is perfect. But Canelo has proven that he is great, and that his boxing style is top notch. Like any style, it is best epitomized by a boxer who combines his natural attributes into said style. Or more accurately, crafts a style that is based on his unique attributes. Examples of this would be Ali (long moving style to match his frame and disposition), Marciano (crouching with power/pressure and supreme conditioning), Tyson (explosive power designed to slip past punches coming at him-AKA-Peekaboo), Mayweather (deftness and speed behind high shoulder), and of course Canelo here who has fast-twitch explosive muscles and a defensive style designed to allow for those explosions to land on target.
the only 2 lost fights he has was 1 While fighting an already experienced b over while he was 20 and 2 fighting someone why over his weight and height and in both fights he ended well
Golovkin should be on his list of losses, and we ALL know this!!!!
I believe canelos style is A mix of Julio Cesar Chavez Ali Tyson n Floyd Mayweather jr n oScar de la Hoya
C 6:49
Does Canelo make you feel small or inferior? 😂
Ever heard that Bob Marley quote “Some people feel the rain, others just get wet”
Guess which one you are?
Ask Adelaide Bird. She definitely felt the rain while judging that fight with Floyd
His still a counter puncher just like mike Tyson was
he is? I thought he was a like inside fighter no? or do you mean he incorporates counter punching with his crazy inside punches?
@@manix4938 inside punching after slipping shots. Meaning aggressive counter puncher
@@jsr7183 spot on
@@jsr7183 moving forward pressing to force the opponent to throw shots that can be countered. My favorite style to watch and requires such a skilled fighter to master. Mike and canelo are like watching art to me
He didn't win the national championship in 2015 he won it in 2005
ok after five minutes the analys gets better ... jump into it withiut too mush preables
I love his duck style
Don’t dare compare plant to mayweather. Canelo tried the same hand probe on Mayweather however, mayweather would instantly move his whole body out of the way or counter with a short left hook when canelo was loading up the right hand… also planted would fold down with his shoulder roll, compared to mayweather leaning all the way back outside the ropes staying out of range.
Canelo will be the best fighter in the whole world after his retirement in all times
Lmaoooooo😊
Pretty much impossible to beat the legends of before but canelo is in my top 25 already and I do realized how big of a statement that is. He could fight in any era
KingNelo 👑🥊🇲🇽🤑🤓
@Bo Bo you love Canelo that's why you love watching all his videos ha🤓
Canelo is a Great fighter for sure, but let’s see canelos next move, hopefully we can see the Benavidez fight, that’s a fight I would like to see.
Julio César Chávez still the best
Canelo is exciting to watch but he's not the best.
He will be inefficient vs technically sound and athletic boxers.
“The Mexican” 😂
Bivol ruined canelo in my opinion. You can’t come out wearing a crown and get so thoroughly bullied
So a king can’t loose all time greats lost during their primes and came back stronger canelo included after his lose to mayweather he came back better plus canelo needed a little humbling let’s be honest your ego definitely inflates after you stop or dominate your way to undisputed his plan was becoming to predictable he didn’t even have a backup plan for bivol
So accurate. I was a pretty big canelo fan until he went on that run through billy joe, Caleb, and calum. He got way too arrogant.I started following Bivol before their fight and I declared at that time, you can check my post history on YT, that Bivol will be too much for canelo. Bivol does the little things PERFECTLY. His defensive/offensive footwork rhythm was something canelo had 0 answers for except to punch Bivol in his deltoids. I’m nobody and I could see the writing on the wall way before they fought but canelos crown made him blind.
Ahh I remember this guy he never fought the best guys of his time ducked them by moving to weight classes and asked for belts to be made up so he didn’t have to fight them then his steroids suspension he’s pretty much remembered as a subpar champ who never gave fans the fights boxing wants only gave fans fights he could win
Mayweather changed canelo boxing style.... there's 2 canelo's BEFORE Floyd and AFTER Floyd
His tricks il tell u a few I dont fight Mexicans but 30 plus of his wins are against Mexicans-- who have u fought
Canelo is a very good fighter made to look great point blank
Lol he’s beaten so many American champs and European champs come on
two words - mayweather and bivol.😂
only two losses in over 60 fights that's a better record than most boxers quit hating loser lmao
Canelo can beat Beniv.he should just fight him and shut him up.
Well I Guess Charlo Will Be Wearing A Cast After The Fight" He's Gonna Pound on Charlo Arm.. His Hook Will Not Exist 🥊🥊💯💯💯💯💯🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I know all Canelos tricks and techniques: The feints, his head movement, his power punching, including the secret contracts, his ways to avoid other mexican and power punchers like Ramírez or Benavides and his fantastic tricks to beat heavy bags like Chavez JR. or Perro Angulo... One of my favorite is his trick to make fights when fighters are old or almost retire. But the best trick of Canelo is that very very special delicious Mexican BEEF he likes to eat, that's the most important part of his boxing game.
Your mom is riding that Mexican beef
He avoided no one
@@brandoasan5639 You are delusional
@@judah9906 you are an ignorant
@@judah9906 who has he avoided exactly he's fought all the top competition
canelo need trading punches to win . He doenst good at cutting the ring , he controls the fight by his devastating power
Floyd Mayweather was given the fight vs Canelo by point Canelo was the winner
3 losses ggg got robbed in that first fight but he is the best fighter in the last few years of boxing
cherry picking wall of fame🤣🤣
he's fought all the best fighters how is he cherry picking y'all haters need to grow up and quit hating you're pathetic
Steroid taker's style of boxing
Taking steroids doesn't make you that good 😂
Copying garcias crown, saunders shoulder celebration and dress style and plant and charlos car choices and bivols letterman jackets. Be original.
Yes canelo has evolved from fighting everyone to ducking everyone these days and lackluster stamina only looks good against fighters with no power and no movement now his best style is duck style dont fight Mexicans (( but fought many before 30 of his wins are fighting Mexicans dont fight boring fighters dont
Fight this dont fight that .. canelo fans now rather him just win instead of fighting tough opponents im a boxing fan not a canelo fan coming from a ex canelo fan he’s from 1 to 10 a 7 as a fighter every time real competition comes he ducks or he loses or they hand him a draw ..
Dudes fought at least 6 fights in the last 18 months and he’s ducking?
Benavidez, Charlo, ggg, Andrade all together have not had 6 fights!! So whine, bitch and moan all you want, your comment has NO MERIT!!
Canelo’s white privilege is what got him to where he is nothing else and nothing more 😂
jelly much? 🤣
Cleanbutaral and steroids are also part of his legacy. Just like Many PakRoids Punkiao
Canelo#1🇲🇽🥊
overrated like crazy
