Boxing's pound-for-pound king, Canelo Alvarez, is welcomed by Pug and Copp on today's show. Before Canelo joins the show, Mike and Lance preview his upcoming bout against Avni Yıldırım and discuss the odds and undercard. Canelo explains why he fights as often as he does and then shares his thoughts on fighting in Miami (8:30). After, Canelo delivers his thoughts on his impending fight with Billy Joe Saunders and shares what his intentions are with Caleb Plant (12:30). If Canelo could tackle one issue in boxing, what would it be? Plus, how will he use his promoter's license, is a future fight against GGG possible, and what weakness of Callum Smith did Canelo's team exploit (21:00)? Lastly, Pug and Copp weigh in on if Eddy Reynoso is a shoo-in for Trainer of the Year.
