So, you know how people always say, “Be careful what you wish for”? Well, it looks like one boxing fan learned that lesson the hard way when he held up a sign asking Canelo Alvarez to hit him in the belly.
And let’s say, Canelo delivered – with a punch straight to the fan’s stomach! The boxer nearly killed the fan after landing a hard punch into his stomach but he won’t be charged for assault since it was the fans’ request.
Canelo, 33, was enjoying himself with friends and family at a recent event following his win by unanimous decision against Jaime Munguia, earlier this month, when the fan begged him to fulfill his dream of getting punched, as indicated on his poster, by the 33-year-old, undisputed super middleweight champion.
‘One day I will have the honor of getting in the ring with you,’ wrote TikTok influencer Naimdarrechi as a caption to his video on the platform.
Canelo, who at first didn’t want to be bothered, proceeded to get up from his chair before approaching the fan and landing a right hook to his stomach.
But, despite the punch looking painful, the fan managed to stay on his feet after the hit.
Boxing fans on social media were amazed at the way he took in the pain.
‘Didn’t even drop, fair play,’ a user shared on X.
‘He took it well,’ another pointed out.
‘Brave or stupid????’ someone else asked.
So, next time you meet Canelo Alvarez, think twice before asking for a punch in the stomach! It’s always best to keep interactions with professional boxers strictly verbal.
