Canelo Alvarez did not like what he saw in the Mike Tyson-Jake Paul fight. Two weeks ago, the 27-year-old Paul took on the 58-year-old Tyson in a fight that was widely panned by fans.
Alvarez was asked about the fight, and he said he felt sad watching it.

“You know, I feel sad about what I saw from Mike Tyson, because at his age and everything, he can’t do that kind of stuff, but it’s business for them and it’s fine, whatever.”
The Mexican superstar boxer says he considered avenging Tyson over the “injustice” that he saw in the fight.
I thought about [getting revenge for Tyson] when I saw the fight, when I saw the injustice. But we’ll see. I’m in my thing.”
Paul responded to Canelo’s comments on social media.
Why the fuck would I give him the payday? When I beat him it would be the same bullshit and lies…that Canelo was too small and Jake Paul paid him off https://t.co/FiGKo4UZuJ

As of now neither Paul nor Alvarez have fights lined up for next year, but it’s doubtful that they will face off against each other in the near future.
