🛑 Shocking news: Canelo Álvarez is hospitalized after being bitten in the intimate area – Fight with Terence Crawford at risk
What seemed to be a quiet training session prior to one of the most anticipated fights of the year ended in absolute chaos, when Saul “Canelo” Álvarez was urgently taken to the hospital after suffering a bite in an extremely sensitive area: its intimate parts.
The incident, which occurred on Tuesday afternoon in a private camp in Guadalajara, has generated shock both in the sports press and among boxing fans. The fight against Terence Crawford, scheduled for the coming weeks, could be in danger of postponing if the injury turns out to be more serious than was initially thought.

🥊 What happened exactly?
According to face -to -face witnesses of the gym, Canelo was in a closed sparring session when, during an intense clinch, his practice opponent lost control and accidentally gave him an unauthorized bite.
“It was a moment of confusion. No one understood what happened until Canelo bent with pain shouting and dropped to the floor,” said a member of the technical team, who asked to remain anonymous.
Medical sources confirmed later that the bite was located in the upper internal part of the thigh, very close to the groin, although some rumors in social networks claim that it was even more compromised.
🏥 Hospitalization and prognosis
Canelo was immediately transferred to a private clinic where he was evaluated by a team of specialist doctors. Although his life is not in danger, the medical report indicates that soft tissues suffered a moderate contusion and requires observation to rule out infection or subsequent complications.
“It is stable, but very uncomfortable. For now nothing is ruled out with respect to the calendar of his next fight,” said a spokesman for the Canelo team.
🧨 And the fight against Crawford?
The long -awaited fight between Canelo Álvarez and Terence Crawford, two of the largest names of current boxing, is agreed to be held in less than a month. However, sources close to the promotion team are considering a possible reprogramming, especially if Canelo training must be interrupted for more than a week.
“We cannot risk a fight of this caliber with a fighter who is not 100% physically. But everything will depend on how it evolves in the next few days,” said a high manager of Golden Boy Promotions.
🌐 Reactions in social networks
The hashtag #Canelomordido became a trend in a matter of hours, with thousands of memes, theories and messages of support for the Mexican boxer. Although some took the news with humor, most fans expressed genuine concern:
“It is not funny. It is the body of an elite athlete. We hope it is fine and that you can fight soon,” wrote an X user (formerly Twitter).
📌 Conclusion
While Canelo Álvarez recovers from one of the most unusual lesions of his career, the boxing world anxiously awaits official news about the future of his fight with Terence Crawford.
One thing is safe: the ring can be a dangerous place … but this time, the real blow came from the teeth.
