CANELO ALVAREZ is set to add more millions to his incredibly large bank account with a new side hustle.
The former undisputed super-middleweight champion has enough money in the bank to last him several lifetimes.
The Mexican mauler, however, has already planned for life after boxing by opening a chain of petrol stations in his homeland and a line of convenience stores.
And the future Hall of Famer has expanded his restaurant portfolio by opening a taqueria in the USA.
The 34-year-old – along with his brother Ricardo – launched their first American branch of their El Pastor Del Rica taqueria chain in San Diego this week.

Canelo turned up with his family and greeted the scores of adoring fans eager to get their hands on tacos.
And after cutting the ribbon, the Guadalajara gladiator made sure to have some of the tasty tacos on offer.
Canelo hasn’t fought since his September showdown with Puerto Rican pounder Eder Berlanga.
He dominated the then-undefeated Berlanga for 12 rounds to retain his WBA, WBC and WBO 168lbs belts via unanimous decision.
Canelo’s next outing will likely take place on Cinco de Mayo weekend in Las Vegas.
A blockbuster fight with former undisputed welterweight champion Terence Crawford has been mooted as a possibility.
