In a surprising development that has rocked the boxing world, SaĂșl âCaneloâ Ălvarez has been spotted at Errol Spence Jr.âs training camp, helping him prepare for his highly anticipated rematch against Terence âBudâ Crawford. The news has sparked a wave of speculation and explosive reactions in the boxing community.
Canelo, Spenceâs new mentor?
Sources close to Spenceâs team reveal that Canelo not only attended as a spectator, but was actively involved in the training sessions, offering strategic advice and sharing his vast experience in the ring. This unexpected endorsement from the Mexican superstar suggests that Spence is willing to make drastic changes to his approach to face Crawford again.
Recall that in their first fight, Crawford dominated Spence resoundingly, taking the victory by TKO in the ninth round. Since then, Spence has vowed to return stronger than ever, and Caneloâs presence in his camp seems to be the clearest sign that heâs willing to do whatever it takes to achieve victory.
An alliance against Crawford?
The relationship between Canelo and Crawford has been tense in recent months, with both fighters trading media comments about a potential superfight. Caneloâs decision to train with Spence could be interpreted as an indirect declaration of war against Crawford, adding even more tension to an already heated rivalry.
