    Max Kellerman quoted during Canelo fight:
    "Canelo has been fighting as a pro since 15. He's used to the spotlight...... but it's never been this bright".

    It could be the case with a young kid like Canelo if it was his first fight in the US, but he had fought big fights in the same venue before so I doubt it had a real effect on him.

    Surely any boxer must be in awe of anyone that walks to the ring with Justin Bieber by his side
