How did Ryan Garcia impress Canelo Alvarez?

Ryan Garcia has always been an active presence on social media. Posting videos of himself training and sparring is something that Garcia indulges in quite often. In several such videos, Garcia can be seen showing off his speed on the pads.

Canelo Alvarez is not the only fighter that Ryan Garcia has impressed with his swift striking. UFC heavyweight kingpin Francis Ngannou was bewitched by Garcia's skills on the pad. Ngannou was also pleasantly surprised after witnessing the power in Garcia's hands.

Canelo Alvarez is no slouch either. The Mexican has incredibly fast hands and impeccable striking. Countless training videos of Canelo show him shadowboxing and hitting pads with blistering speed.

Check out one such video below:

Canelo Alvarez may be slower than Ryan Garcia, but he certainly has one of the fastest pairs of hands at middleweight and super-middleweight. The Mexican will hope to bring all the speed and power that he has in store when he faces Caleb Plant.

Set to go down in Las Vegas, Nevada, on November 6th, the fight promises to be a smashing event. The pre-fight rituals have already set the tone for the nature of the contest. Their recent altercation suggests that the bout is now personal.
