It would appear that boxing phenom Canelo Alvarez was briefly took to social media with a response for boxing champion Gennady Golovkin’s recent viral video concerning the pugilist’s drug test failure. Now the message has been deleted, but fans can still get a glimpse at what Alvarez had to say.
Canelo Alvarez and Gennady Golovkin first met inside the squared circle back in 2017, with the match ultimately ending in a highly controversial draw. The two were scheduled for an immediate rematch for May 5, inside the same T-Mobile arena in Las Vegas, Nev.
However, the bout was cancelled after Canelo Alvarez failed a drug test for the substance clenbuterol. The boxer claims the substance entered his system through contaminated beef.
Golovkin would go on to star in a Jordan commercial that featured a coach eating beef, while discussing the “secret ingredient” to boxing. The coach then reveals the ingredient to be “hard work,” as the camera focuses on Golovkin hard in training.
Check out Alvarez’s since deleted social media response to the video within the clip above.
