Canelo’s revelation about the end of his career

When will Canelo retire? Is retirement looming over Canelo? He responded directly as his body has endured many hits during his boxing career.
“I think I at least have four more years in me, maybe five. I’ve been a professional boxer since I was 15 years of age. That is almost 18 years of fighting professionally. I always said I would retire when I was 36 or 37, around that age. That should be more than enough, it’s so many years of boxing. By then, I will have accomplished many things and then I will have to enjoy life with the family and all.”
