In 2012, the now undisputed super middleweight champion Canelo Álvarez had raked in over $1.2 million dollars after defending his then light middleweight title against Shane Mosley. From a $10K TAG Heuer watch to a $200K Audi R8, here’s how the Mexican boxer made, spent and saved his first million dollars.

he should spent the next one million on learning english
How does he continue to duck Benevidez!?
What is Mexico tax rate.?
I bet he had a bit more than a million, because he owed taxes on that first million too. That would have wiped out his savings. I like his choices though. He got a few wants out of the way, a few necessities, and tucked some away until the next payday too.
Yo Segui tu trayectoria del boxeo pro! Eres poderosos y chingon. Tu si me haces sentir orgullo por la tierra de mi Madre y familia. Tienes el poder de voce usa eso para levantar al Pueblo. No le debes nada a nadien tu solo lo ganaste por eso te saludo. Nada de envidia solo buenos deceos aun la manera que hablas no es creida me late sigue bailandolos en el ring. El movimiento de los pies sera tu fuerte. Sigue representando lo Bueno no lo malo!
He didn’t pay taxes on the 1 million?

Saul "Money" Alvarez
Very fair. he treated himeself then took care of business
And now he is investing in his business for longevity and financial freedom once he retires
Canelo is the face of boxing. This is undeniable and non-debatable. He brings in the most money and crowds. He’s made boxing more well known!
Gran empresario que salio el hombre felicidades.
There’s a$$holes that become wealthy and then there’s Canelo 🇲🇽
500k is not a lot in the US for homes, but for reference you could by a 2 bed 1 bath apt in the city for about 20k. I've seen 4 story gated compounds with pool and mountain views go for 500k.
Payyyyydayyyy
