Saul ‘Canelo’ Alvarez is about to achieve the feat of fighting for a world championship in a country other than Mexico or the United States, this Saturday when he faces Cuban William Scull in a unification fight in Saudi Arabia.
If he wins, the Mexican will once again become the undisputed 168-pound champion, as Scull is the current IBF champion, which stripped Canelo of his belt precisely for refusing to fight Scull
In the midst of all these expectations, the Mexican champion decided to travel three weeks in advance to the Middle East to carry out the final phase of his preparation, acclimatize and get used to fighting at a time completely out of the ordinary in boxing: 06:00 local time
But in addition to training, Canelo is also taking advantage of the opportunity to get to know all the attractions offered by the oil paradises, such as Saudi Arabia, and even shared that he has taken the time to undergo extravagant and extremely expensive aesthetic routines
Canelo Alvarez’s eccentric beauty treatment
On social media, a video began to circulate on Wednesday showing Canelo receiving a facial treatment while getting a haircut. But the asset applied to the skin is not just anything, as it was a 24-karat gold mask
According to some beauty specialists, this type of therapy helps to “restore radiance and tone the skin and give it greater firmness”. In addition to reducing wrinkles and expression lines. This type of treatment is very useful for someone with Canelo’s skin tone, which makes them more sensitive to the effects of the sun
Hopefully the benefits of the treatment are real, as the session costs approximately $500 dollars, a small price to pay for someone who next Saturday has a guaranteed purse of $80 million.
In addition, the treatment is a sign of the Mexican’s confidence that he will win on Saturday, as the treatment was applied considering that he will not suffer great damage to his face after facing Scull, where he will be a heavy favorite.
