SAUL “Canelo” Alvarez has posted a photo of himself posing with all his supercars – as he tells his Instagram followers: I don’t like to show off.
The Mexican middleweight, 26, crushed Amir Khan‘s world title bid in May when the Brit moved up two divisions.
And he says his array of top-end motors just illustrates how hard he has worked after coming from nothing.

Alvarez, who has vowed to take on pound for pound king Gennady Golovkin, said: “The other side to me. I don’t like to show off, but I have earned this after coming from sh*t.
“There is more, but I will just show this with all respect. #teamcanelo happy new year”
Alvarez is the latest in a line of boxers who have spent big on cars.

The American legend, 39, has bought more than 100 luxury cars, including 16 Rolls-Royces, from just one Las Vegas dealer over the past 18 years.
Mayweather prefers to pay in duffel bags bulging with cash.
And he reportedly has $15million worth of cars he has never driven in his garage.
