To the controversy generated by Saúl ‘Canelo’ Álvarez against Leo Messi, the captain of the ‘Tri’, Andrés Guardado, has been added, who seemed to disagree with the boxer and criticized him for his statements, stating that He doesn’t know football.
Guardado came out in defense of the captain of ‘La Albiceleste’ and questioned the accusations of the Mexican boxer about an alleged lack of respect by the Argentine for Mexico , for apparently kicking a green jersey that was on the locker room floor after the South Americans’ 2-0 win over the Central Americans.
“We all know the respect that Leo Messi has for everyone. Canelo doesn’t know how a locker room works. What was said seemed silly to me,” said the midfielder from Mexico and Real Betis from Spain.

On Sunday night, Álvarez started a controversy on the social network Twitter, threatening Leo Messi with blows for allegedly kicking a Mexico shirt that he had exchanged with Andrés Guardado, something that many footballers have classified as “something normal” that happens in the changing rooms.
After the first accusations by the Mexican boxer, the first to come out in defense of Messi was the Mexican journalist for the ESPN network, David Faitelson, to whom Canelo also responded with threats and insults.
