JAKARTA - Mexican boxer Canelo Alvarez insists he is not interested in stepping into the ring to face his compatriot.

Canelo had a total of 61 fights in his career; won 57 draws, drew twice and lost twice. However, he has never fought fellow Mexicans since facing Julio Cesar Chavez Jr in 2017.

In that fight, Canelo won in a rather routine manner; unanimous decision.

Now, however, he no longer wants to enter the ring with anyone from his own country, even Gilberto 'Zurdo' Ramirez.

"I don't want to fight with Mexicans, I represent Mexico," he said this week quoted by Marca, Friday, September 9.

Why canelo Alvarez doesn't want to face Mexico's post?

Some people indicated that the 168-pound united champion did not want to face fellow Mexicans out of fear. While others believe, no one at this level he can face.

Andy Ruiz Jr, who is part of Canelo's team, has now given his thoughts on what lies behind the decision.

"Because Mexican boxers fighting Mexicans is difficult, because we know these Mexicans won't give up, you know," Ruiz Jr added.

"So, the fight between two Mexicans you can definitely expect it to be a war, it's going to be all action.

"He can fight with whoever he wants. He's a major player, you know, he's a champion.

"I feel like he's already at a level where he's proven so much that he doesn't even have to prove anything. I think he just wants to get into a big fight."
