Canelo Alvarez vs. John Ryder: Mexican superstar dismisses Gervonta Davis as the new face of boxing

Canelo Alvarez recently rubbished claims that Gervonta Davis was the new face of boxing after beating the Mexican pugilist's former teammate Ryan Garcia.

The highly anticipated boxing match between Davis faced Garcia took place on April 22 and resulted in 'Tank' getting his hand raised after a seventh-round body shot rendered 'KingRy' unable to continue. In the aftermath of the fight, Davis proudly claimed he was the biggest name in the sport of boxing.

However, Canelo Alvarez disputes those claims. The boxing champion, who's widely considered to be the biggest superstar in the sport over the last few years, dismissed the idea of one fight making someone the new face of boxing.

In an interview with FightHype, Canelo Alvarez reminded fans that he hasn't retired yet and stated:

"I’m not retired yet, my friend. Not yet. They can say whatever they want, but you know, it’s not that easy. One fight doesn’t put you in this position. I like Gervonta Davis a lot, but he needs to do more to be the face of boxing. One fight with Ryan Garcia, and I respect Ryan Garcia, isn’t going to do it."
