JAKARTA - Relations can end at several points, as happened to Oscar de la Hoya and Canelo Alvarez.
Their path separates in 2022. but since then, De La Hoya has been a little obsessed with Canelo, who he constantly mentions in interviews.
His final statement was to give Canelo a number of tips on how to take his career to the next level.
In an interview with Fighthype, De la Hoya questioned Canelo's style, which he said should be changed if he performs a rematch in the future with Dmitry Bivol.
"I feel very confident that Canelo should change his style. He will not beat Bivol in the same style," De La Hoya was quoted as saying by Marca, Wednesday.
"He had to throw a combination and not a simple blow in a rematch with Bivol."
De la Hoya points to Gilberto 'Zurdo' Ramirez, who will face Bivol on November 5, for example, in a highly anticipated fight.
If Zurdo manages to beat Bivol, it can make Canelo rethink the rematch with the Russian boxer.
"One Canelo's mistake was that he threw a punch at one time, tried to knock him down. Zurdo would throw four, five, six, seven punches and strangled Bivol. Hopefully the ring is small," commented De La Hoya.
De la Hoya's second advice to Canelo is nothing new, as it is in line with the idea he has suggested in the past to the Mexican.
Although the relationship between De la Hoya and Canelo is broken, it seems that The Golden Boy wants the best for Canelo. For that, he sent him a very clear message.
Maybe he should change coaches. Everyone changes coaches; everyone gets better. I'm not saying Canelo isn't great. He's a great fighter, but he can't beat Bivol in the same style because he's not ready. It's impossible," he said of Canelo coach, Eddy Reynoso.
