Saul "Canelo" Alvarez has picked Tyson Fury as his favourite in the rematch with Deontay Wilder. Mexican superstar, however, mentions, that former heavyweight champions Fury should do everything from the very first second until the last one.
“It's going to be a very interesting fight. If Tyson does things right until the last second of the fight, I see him with more possibilities [to win]. He must make the perfect fight.” Canelo told ESPN Deportes (via
Boxingscene).
Despite picking Tyson, Alvarez has also given credit to the "Bronze Bomber" and emphasized his ability to finish the fights with a single punch.
“Tyson moves very well and is very smart inside the ring. We know that Wilder has real impressive power, that at any moment he can finish the fight with a single blow," "Canelo" added.
Wilder and Fury will meet on February 22 at MGM Grand, Las Vegas.
