Canelo has always maintained he will look to
But boxing fans could get the all-time great for a further three years - thanks to his model partner Fernanda.
Canelo, 34, told SunSport: "Actually, my wife wants me to retire at 40!
"Imagine that, and I say 'No, I don't, I don't think so.' She likes to see me fighting and all that kind of stuff.

"And obviously she wants to have more kids and she wants the other kids to see me in training and seeing what I do in the training camps and this and that.
"But I say to her, you know, they're gonna see me in another areas of my life, in my business and that kind of stuff, but we'll see."
The boxing champion has two daughters, Emily and Maria and a son named Saul Adiel - all with different women.

Canelo's kids are his biggest fans and watch every one of his fights from ringside - but only after being reassured by their super-dad.
Canelo Alvarez warns he's ready to bash more Brit rivals with boxing icon 'dreaming' of UK debut
He said: "They get a little bit nervous, you know, they get a little bit nervous but they like it. They scream, they support me with all they have.
"I think Maria is the one with more nervous on herself because she says that she don't want somebody to hurt me or something like that.
"And I say, 'Don't worry, that's why I'm here training for and doing my best here in training camp so that doesn't happen.'"
Eldest Emily is the only of his children to truly understand Canelo's superstardom.
He said: "I think they realise a little bit, but not the magnitude of what I do or what I am in boxing.
"Maybe my older daughter, obviously she's 17, so she already realised how big I am. But my other kids Adel and Maria, maybe they realise a little bit."

Canelo returns in an undisputed super-middleweight title decider against Scull in Riyadh - airing on DAZN in the early hours of Sunday morning.
It marks his first ever fight outside of North America - with Canelo in love with boxing as much now as he was for his pro debut
20 YEARS
ago.
He said: "I enjoy it a lot. Believe me, it's not that I don't be here anymore.
"So I still enjoy this kind of thing, I'm gonna fight outside of United States and Mexico.
"So for me, it's something I really want in my career for many years. So that motivates myself a lot."
Canelo also has the chance to regain the IBF title he had to vacate last July - with Scull inheriting the belt to set up the unification.
A super-fight against Terence Crawford, 37, is also expected to follow in September in Las Vegas as part of a four-bout deal with Saudi's Turki Alalshikh.

Canelo only penned the bumper contract after walking away from a shock fight with 28-year-old
Talks were advanced for a May 3 bout in Vegas - with news
He said: "Maybe her friends told her about the fight.
"Because the fathers of her friends told them and everything talking about it - because they don't know anything about boxing.
"That kind of people don't know anything about boxing and they think Jake Paul is really good fighter. Which he is a fighter, but it's levels in boxing.
"And that's why my daughter told me, 'You're gonna fight with Jake Paul?' And I said, 'He's not on my level my love, don't worry!'
"I think it's for that fact that people don't how boxing works."
He said: "I'm very happy. Things happen for a reason and I'm happy with this and I'm gonna enjoy it as much as I can."

I've splashed £1million to get the world's smallest waist -all my organs moved around because of it but I'm not done yet
A WOMAN has revealed that she has spent over £1 million trying to get the world's smallest waist. Aleira Avendano, 33 has spent two decades cinching her waist down to just 18 inches, 16 inches smaller than the average British woman's. Advertisement 2 Aleira wants to have the world's skinniest waist Credit: Instagram aleiraoficial_sexy 2 She's spent £1 million on her unique look Credit: Instagram aleiraoficial_sexy The Florida-based yoga instructor has achieved her tiny waist by wearing a corset, and is determined to beat the current record held by 86-year-old Aleira's controversial methods have caused her internal organs to "shift and adjust" to new spots. However, despite the dangers, Aleira, who is originally from Venezuela, isn't ready to quit. "I find it challenging when it comes to buying clothes, as nothing fits," she told NeedToKnow. Advertisement Read more real life stories "My sizes are unique, and I have naturally wide hips." "I have to have clothes custom-made for me. It's been a major investment – enhancements, treatments and healthy food. "A huge commitment. Honestly, my body should be insured." As well as spending £1 million on her waist whittling mission, Aleira has also spent £471,000 on cosmetic surgeries, including seven boob jobs, four nose jobs and veneers. Advertisement Most read in Fabulous Aleira previously claimed that all woman "should have plastic surgery to be truly beautiful." And despite the health risks, Aleira has encouraged others to try and get a waist like hers. The 45-second trick to get a snatched waist that Love Island star swears by At the start of her waist cinching journey, Aleira wore a corset six hours a day, but she has now ramped this up to 23 hours. Wearing a corset comes with a myriad of issues, such as breathing difficulties, organ compression and muscle atrophy. Advertisement The model has now launched her own brand of shapewear, to help people achieve her "one of a kind look". "My shapewear line will change many lives" she said. What are the dangers of wearing corsets? Wearing corsets, a fashion practice that dates back centuries, can pose significant medical risks despite their aesthetic appeal. One of the primary concerns is the potential for internal organ damage. Corsets, especially when tightly laced, can compress the ribs and exert pressure on internal organs such as the liver, stomach, and intestines. This compression can lead to displacement and deformation of these organs, potentially causing digestive issues, reduced lung capacity, and impaired circulation. Breathing difficulties are another serious risk associated with corset use. The constriction of the rib cage can limit the expansion of the lungs, leading to shallow breathing and decreased oxygen intake. Over time, this can result in respiratory problems and reduced stamina. In extreme cases, prolonged use of tightly laced corsets can lead to conditions like atelectasis, where parts of the lungs collapse due to inadequate ventilation. Additionally, corsets can affect the musculoskeletal system. The constant pressure and altered posture imposed by a corset can weaken core muscles, leading to muscle atrophy and decreased strength. This can result in long-term back pain and poor posture once the corset is removed. There is also a risk of nerve compression, which can lead to numbness, tingling, and in severe cases, nerve damage. While modern corsets are often designed to be less restrictive than their historical counterparts, the potential health risks remain. It is essential for individuals to be aware of these risks and to use corsets sparingly and with caution. Consulting with medical professionals before incorporating corsets into regular wear can help mitigate some of these risks and ensure that any adverse effects are promptly addressed. "It's a gentle product with incredible results, created by me and inspired by the story of my own body." Aleria added: "I don't miss my old figure at all. Advertisement "People react in different ways. "Some follow me, some feel nervous, and others admire me or see my body as something crazy." She added that men "can't get enough" of her "exotic" figure.
