Canelo Alvarez shrugged off a massive punch from a fighter who’s finished all but two of his opponents.
Throughout his career, the Mexican has proven his power beyond doubt, knocking out a plethora of talented boxers.
However, he can take a shot as well as he can deliver one. Canelo ate every punch Amir Khan threw at him, and even absorbed a brutal blow from Gennadiy Golovkin.
And during a training session, one heavy hitter was stunned when he couldn’t budge the all-time great.

The entertaining fighter couldn’t believe that his power had zero impact on the super middleweight world champion.
In an interview with Ring Champs with Ak & Barak, he said: “That dude is good. He hits hard. I know he held back for sure.
“There was one thing I remember, I set him up for a shot, and it worked. I don’t want to say which one because I don’t want to give up my secrets.
“I hit him with a hard hook. I made him drop his hands, and think I’m going to do something else, and I hit him as hard as I could, and his head went like this (mimics minimal reaction).
“He was like, ‘That was good’.”
