Hey everyone, it’s your boy back again with another story from my latest adventure. This time, it’s about trying to recreate that awesome Canelo Alvarez walkout. You know, the one with all the Mexican vibes and that killer song? Yeah, that one. So, grab your snacks, and let’s dive into how I tried to make this happen.
First things first, I had to figure out what song Canelo used. Turns out, it was “Por Mi Mexico” by Lefty SM featuring Santa Fe Klan. A real banger, released in 2020. I learned that Lefty SM, the dude who made the track, sadly passed away last year. So, using this song felt like a cool way to pay some respect.
After getting the song down, I started thinking about the whole Mexican pride thing. Canelo’s all about that, and I wanted to capture that feeling. I remembered some stuff about him and Joan Sebastian, an icon, and I thought, “How can I mix that in?” It wasn’t easy, trying to get that same energy and those special moments into my little project.
I also found out Canelo’s a fan of Peso Pluma, and he digs the song “Las Morras.” It’s from Peso’s new album. So, I listened to it a few times, trying to get into that mood. It’s a whole different vibe, but it helped me see another side of what gets Canelo going.
- Get the Music Right: I spent hours listening to “Por Mi Mexico,” trying to get the feel of it. It’s one thing to hear a song, but to really feel it, you know?
- Channel the Mexican Pride: This was tough. I’m no Canelo, but I watched a bunch of his interviews and tried to understand what Mexico means to him. It’s deep.
- Incorporate Some Peso Pluma: Since Canelo likes him, I figured, why not? I added a bit of “Las Morras” into my prep, just to mix things up.
Making It Happen
Okay, so here’s the funny part. I’m no boxer, and I definitely don’t have a ring to walk into. But I set up my living room like a makeshift entrance, complete with some dim lights and my phone blasting “Por Mi Mexico.” I even tried to do that cool, focused walk that Canelo does. My cat was watching me like I was crazy, but hey, you gotta commit, right?
I did a few takes, trying to get the walk and the feel just right. It’s harder than it looks! You need that confidence, that swagger. I messed up a lot, laughed at myself, but kept going. It was all about having fun and trying something new.
The Aftermath
In the end, did I nail it like Canelo? Nope, not even close. But did I have a blast trying? Absolutely. It was cool to dive into something so different and see what it takes to create those epic moments, even on a small scale. Plus, I got a new appreciation for the music and the heart behind it.
Oh, and I stumbled upon some juicy gossip while researching. Canelo’s making bank, like $30 to $35 million, plus a huge chunk of the PPV revenue. And his opponent, Edgar Berlanga? He’s pulling in around $500,000 to $700,000, plus some extra from the PPV. Crazy, right? It really puts into perspective how big these events are.
So, that’s my story of trying to recreate the Canelo walkout. It was a wild ride, full of music, a bit of culture, and a whole lot of fun. Hope you enjoyed hearing about it. Catch you in the next one!
