Canelo Alvarez is hoping to KO British boxer Rocky Fielding on Saturday night for his debut in the super-middleweight limit at the Madison Square Gardens in New York.
“I am preparing to make the best of it in this fight by any way, by any means necessary. I’m going to give everything in the ring, and I’m always going to look for the KO as I do in my fights. It’s very important to be on that list of about 10 Mexicans to become three-division world champions, to enter history. That’s why I’m here taking on this important fight, and it’s important that we win this title.” Canelo Stated.
The Mexican fighter who defeated Gennady Golovkin for his titles is now hoping to add the World Boxing Association World Super Middleweight Title to his collections against Fielding who is relatively an outsider after securing the WBA strap against Tyron Zeuge via a 5th round TKO in July of this year 2018.
“It’s not a secret that I’m a better fighter and that I’m more experienced, But I’m taking a risk by entering into a comfort zone of a champion and his weight, that’s a risk, and that risk makes it even. It makes it interesting. No fight is easy, so I’m preparing for a hard fight.
I know that Rocky is used to receiving punches from another weight class and I know that he’s taller. It’s not an easy fight, and I’m preparing for the best Rocky Fielding and to make sure that there are no surprise.” Canelo concluded.
But Rocky Fielding (27-1, 15KOs) is equally optimistic of his chances against Canelo Alvarez (50-1-2, 34 KOs)
“I am going there confident of winning it and I’m confident I can win it, I’m not going there just because it’s Canelo.” Fielding stated.
Santos Saúl Álvarez Barragán is highly tipped by connoisseurs of the game to win with ease but in boxing anything is possible.
