Saul 'Canelo' Alvarez is considered one of the best boxers in the world, as well as one of the highest paid.
His current fortune stands at around 140 million dollars, and he's showing no signs of slowing down given the various projects he's involved in.
Alvarez is set open a chain of convenience stores in the Guadalajara metropolitan area under the name 'Upper by Canelo Energy'.
The convenience stores will follow the same model as his Oxxo franchise, which also has its own gas stations in parts of the city.
The slogan? "We believe that behind every great day there is a coffee that wakes you up, a sandwich that replenishes you or a drink to give you your best".
Born on July 18, 1990 in Guadalajara, Alvarez began his business career by selling popsicles as part of the family business. Now, he has a huge fortune thanks to his activities in and away from the ring.
An investigation by El Mister shows that Canelo is involved in several ventures, from convenience stores to taquerias, and even trading companies.
