Canelo Alvarez suffers an uncomfortable moment because of Elon Musk and a millionaire sponsorship
The Mexican boxer avoided a controversial topic at the press conference for his next fight

Astrong controversy was experienced between Canelo Alvarez and Elon Musk, after a rumor went viral of the Mexican boxer, where he would have refused to support a brand of Elon Musk and at the same time would have sent a harsh message to the businessman to make it clear that he would never support him because of the position that Musk has regarding immigration.

The viral post claims that Canelo allegedly confronted Musk directly, stating: “With all your money, I will NEVER promote your Teslas. It is because of rich men like you that my Mexican people are hunted like animals. I will not support a brand that profits from anti-Mexican racism”. The post concludes with the phrase: “Canelo is not for sale! His heart is with his people”.
However, when directly asked about the rumor during the press conference for the fight between Canelo and Terence Crawford on Friday, the champion refused to give a clear answer. “I don’t want to talk about that, man, we’re talking about fighting, but I always support my people,” was his only response.
Although Canelo did not confirm or deny the rumor about the sponsorship, his response did reaffirm his stance of support for the migrant community, a stance he had previously expressed. In an interview with AS Sports, Alvarez reacted to the ICE raids by alluding to immigrants to ask themselves if it was worth living in the United States in a constant state of fear. “Above all, the first thing in life is to be at peace, to be calm… there is nothing more valuable than tranquility,” he said.
Social media rumors
Canelo’s failure to confirm or deny the rumor did not stop it; on the contrary, it fueled it. His response allowed the story to continue circulating and become a powerful symbol of his solidarity in defending the people of Mexico and showing himself against Musk’s product, a very controversial businessman.
Instead of denying the news, Canelo’s silence made it part of his current affairs and caused attention to drift away from his next fight. Alvarez has always been supportive of his people and it is not surprising that he rejected Musk’s possible offer, but the boxer preferred to dodge the question from journalists in order to avoid the subject.

The fight between Saul “Canelo” Alvarez and Terence “Bud” Crawford, scheduled for September 13, 2025 at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas, is not just a contest: it is a generational clash that will define the legacy of two of the world’s best pound-for-pound boxers.
The fight will feature a highly anticipated clash of styles. Canelo is a power puncher, known for his powerful body shots, constant pressure and excellent counter-punching.
