Canelo Álvarez threatened Lionel Messi for what he considered an offense against the Mexican name. Something that even his own compatriots have come out to detracteven asking him to limit himself to boxing.
Faced with this reality, many comments have emerged, including those of the popular Argentine influencer, Jero Freixas, who humorously defended the captain of the Argentine National Team through a video with his wife.
In the audiovisual, Freixas’s wife asks him to please not mess with a boxer, this in reference to Canelo Álvarez. The Argentine tells his wife that he is the voice of Messi and that he is not interested in anything else. “If you mess with Leo I become Popeye“, said.
Jokingly, his wife says that he barely weighs 70 kilos wet, so he does not trust his physical abilities to face Canelo. Jero Freixas recalls that Kun Agüero has already defended Messi and the woman reminds him that one arm of Agüero is like four of the Argentine influencer.
The controversy created by Canelo Álvarez
On their social networks, Canelo Álvarez threatened Messi for allegedly having trampled on the shirt of the Mexican National Teama fact that has been underestimated even by the members of El Tri themselves, including Andrés Guardado.
Andrés Guardado claimed to be the owner of the shirt that Messi had in the locker room and described the show that Álvarez made about this situation as “nonsense”.
It should be noted that Jero Freixas in his video raised a question: What happened to the Argentines and the Mexicans if we love each other so much? This around the negative comments that arose from this controversy.
