Ever think that you saw Canelo Alvarez at your local grocery store? No, we’re not referring the the batch of carrots in the produce section. Instead, we’re shedding light on the fact the IBF, WBA, WBC, WBO and Super-Middleweight Champion just has one of those faces. “Little Cinnamon” sightings have been occurring all over the U.S. of late, and in true journalistic form the JefeBet team has weighed in with our picks of top Canelo lookalikes.
Five Indisputable Canelo Alvarez Lookalikes That Prove He Was Separated at Birth
Blake Griffin
Rumor has it that NBA power-forward Blake Griffin and Canelo Alvarez were separated at birth. Although, Griffin clearly ate most of their mother’s sustenance given that at 6’9″ he stands more than a foot taller than his twin. Height differences aside, both professional athletes have beady eyes, a crimson coiffure, a sorta-beard, and enough swagger to fill the Barclays Center.
Chris Pratt
Hollywood star of Jurassic World and Guardians of the Galaxy fame also bears a strong resemblance to Canelo. You may not see it at first, but if you recall, Pratt started off in tinseltown with reddish hair. He quickly colored it out when he realized that you can’t be taken seriously as a “ginger” unless you can throw some serious punches. Soon after the color-change Pratt was able to elevate from Parks and Recreation to blockbuster status. Still, the Jurassic actor will never forget his roots as the monozygous sibling to Canelo.
Chucky
Canelo swiftly denies family ties with this infamous figure, given the background and layers of legal woes that surround his kin. The real name of his look alike is Charles Lee Ray (Alvarez). However, years ago, Ray performed a voodoo ritual inside a toy store to transfer his soul into a Good Guy doll in an effort to escape the law. He is now known as Chucky.
The resemblance is undeniable but there’s one current statistic that proves the kinship. While Canelo’s official professional boxing record states 60 bouts in total, his fights in the Mexican state of Nayarit were never carried over. Data shows that his actual professional record equates a grand total of 67 bouts. Guess how many kills Chucky has? You guessed it – 67! We couldn’t make this crap up if we tried.
Nico the Squishmallow
There’s one uncanny look alike that even Canelo would dare debate – Nico the axolotl Squishmallow. Now we know what you’re thinking – how could an axolotl, a paedomorphic salamander, be related to the boxer? Let’s look at the facts. The axolotl species was originally found in Lake Xochimilco in Mexico City, which is a short drive from Canelo’s home in Guadalajara. We just got shivers.
