Canelo Álvarez is one of the most popular boxers of our time. This Mexican legend has beaten everyone except his greatness, Floyd Mayweather Jr. Though, who knows if Canelo gets the chance of a rematch, who is going to win? Except even Floyd Mayweather would not want to get in the ring with Canelo again.
About Canelo Álvarez's Height
Canelo Alvarez is a thick fellow. He may be of average height (for Mexico) but he is built like a bull. Canelo could be said to be a little bit taller than Floyd Mayweather Jr. Though it would be hard to tell if they are not standing side by side or face to face because Canelo looks much shorter than he actually is.
That's why it is so hard to digest Canelo's claimed height of five feet nine inches for him. He simply does not look that tall, even with his sturdy body stature. Hell, he looks barely taller than Floyd, who claims to be five feet eight inches tall - it would all fit in, it seems - except Floyd isn't five feet eight inches tall either, he is five feet seven inches.
The real height of Canelo Alvarez is 5'7.5" (171 cm)
