Canelo Alvarez would be willing to have a rematch with Floyd Mayweather Jr. or a fight with Manny Pacquiao, though not at a catch-weight.
Mayweather topped Alvarez by majority decision in 2013 in a bout held at a catch-weight of 152 pounds. Both Mayweather and Pacquiao largely compete at welterweight. Alvarez is a junior middleweight whose past three fights have been held slightly above the 154-pound limit, at a contractual limit of 155 pounds.
?I?m willing to fight anybody. He?s [Pacquiao] not ready to move up to my weight class, and I respect that. He shouldn?t be given any advantages,? Alvarez said after his third-round knockout of James Kirkland this past Saturday in Houston, speaking through translator Eric Gomez, vice president of Golden Boy Promotions.
Alvarez wouldn?t agree to a second bout with Mayweather under the terms that brought about their first fight.
?Never again,? Alvarez was quoted as saying. ?That was a hard lesson I had to learn.?
