Canelo, 32, already has SEVEN scalps over Brit fighters on his 58-2-2 record.

His first win against a Brit was way back in 2011 when he beat Matthew Hatton to win the WBC light middleweight title.

Since then he has also triumphed over Ryan Rhodes, Amir Khan, Liam Smith, Rocky Fielding, Callum Smith, and most recently Billy Joe Saunders.

And Canelo is targeting another Brit on Saturday night when he takes on John Ryder in his home city of Guadalajara.

Speaking to The Telegraph about his record against British opponents, he said: “I’m sorry to all the UK people. But I had to do it.”

Following the undisputed middleweight title clash against Ryder, Canelo is eyeing a bout in the UK.

And the pound-for-pound king promised a UK fight is coming “soon”.

On fighting in the UK, he said: “I’ve been thinking this for a long time.

“I would love to fight there, and believe me, it’s going to be soon.”

Promoter Eddie Hearn confirmed fighting in the UK is a possibility for Canelo.

The Matchroom chief said: “The plan now with Saul is to box all around the world, next Saturday he will be boxing in front of 50,000 fans in his home town of Guadalajara which was always a dream of his, and beyond that he would love to fight in the UK.  

“And there would be nothing we would love more than to bring him to our national stadium for a huge fight in front of the British fight fans.”
