The reigning UFC welterweight champion Kamaru Usman tried long and unsuccessfully to get a crossover fight with world boxing leader Canelo Alvarez, but in the end the Mexican lost for the first time in many years. And now the “Nigerian Nightmare” does not know if the superfight will take place, and whether there will be such a huge interest in it, given the “corruption” of Saul.
“It’s just hard now: everyone is fixated on dominance,” Usman threw up his hands in a comment
The Underground.
“I still think it’s an amazing, phenomenal fight because Canelo is still at the top of the pound,” Saul says for some reason. “But of course, he’s a bit tarnished now, his aura of invincibility has shrunk a little. But good luck to him! He is a real champion, one of the best boxers, especially in my generation.”
