Canelo Alvarez’s secret weapon

WHEN we look at Canelo Alvarez we seen an amazing fighter, with fast head movement, rapid punches and great power. But we don’t really think about or watch footwork.

But when you do, it really is something else. 

The way he moves in and at of range, and how he cuts the ring down to get him in the right position to land the punches, then my favorite , the way changes his angles to land the body shot is phenomenal.

I made a video that you can watch below on how to change the angle when fighting inside – and Canelo is a real master at this. Covering his opponents vision, having them think he is going to do one thing then do another is what makes him a great fighter and so hard to beat.

Check out this video on changing the angle with your feet then the next time you see a Canelo fight, look out for this:
