Additionally, the Mexican has failed to register a knockout\u00a0since Caleb Plant in 2021.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>But, Canelo is refusing to let the cricitism get to him.

He&#8217;s never been in against a fighter like me.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;It means a lot, all I want for my career is history. I want to achieve a lot of things in my career, this is one of them.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>Canelo went on to say the following after the press conference: &#8216;I think they are stupid. I had my injuries and that slowed me down a little bit because I wasn&#8217;t able to train 100 per cent. But just wait for Saturday night.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p><span>Meanwhile, Charlo &#8211; <\/span><span>who currently holds all of the major belts at junior middleweight &#8211; will be jumping up 14 lbs and two divisions as he attempts to become just the second man after Terence Crawford to achieve undisputed status at multiple weight classes in the four-belt era.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>However,\u00a0Charlo &#8211;
