TThe countdown to the start of the 2026 World Cup is getting faster and faster, and while the entire football world is looking forward to the World Cup, there are also people from other sports who want to be part of this great extravaganza that brings together the world’s best national teams in search of maximum glory.
One of the athletes Mexico wanted to join the organization as one of the hosts was boxer Canelo Alvarez, who has played a very important role but has not received much attention or attention until now.
Is it time for Canelo Rubarez to retire and Mexico lose its idol?
Canelo Alvarez’s key role in the 2026 World Cup
According to a report by TUDN’s Gibran Arrague and Marfur Alonso, Canelo Alvarez has spent a significant amount of his own money to help improve the transportation system in the city of Guadalajara, one of Mexico’s main World Cup venues as it prepares to welcome thousands of fans next June.
Canelo is investing in providing Mexico with better public transportation
TUDN said: “The entire city is being renovated, with La Minerva, the entrance to the city from the airport, now more beautiful than usual. And Canelo is part of the fix as he invests to ensure Mexico has new, better and safer public transport for the World Cup.”
Canelo’s help was so well-received that he didn’t expect anything in return, but once it all became public, his supporters praised the act and appreciated the fact that they were putting some of Canelo’s money into making sure the World Cup party was a huge success.
Mexico has more doubts than certainty about qualifying for the World Cup
While everyone seems to be doing their part to make Mexico a great host for the 2026 World Cup, the main character, the national team, is not doing much as they recently suffered a crushing defeat to Colombia in a friendly that served as a prelude to the World Cup.
Last Saturday, October 11th, Mexico went scoreless against Colombia with a four-goal lead, but it was an unforgettable performance that left doubts about the national team heading into the next World Cup. Fans are upset by this latest result, but are hopeful that things will improve as there is still time and room for improvement considering there are still a few months until the World Cup starts.
