Canelo Alvarez is back. The Mexican superstar (59-2-2, 39 KOs) hasn’t had the easiest couple of years, but he’s won his last two fights and still holds all the belts in the super-middleweight division. This time out, he’s surprised everyone with his choice of opponent. The expectation had been that he’d fight middleweight champion, Jermall Charlo- but Jermall’s ongoing health issues scuppered that. So instead, he moved on to the undisputed middleweight champion- Jermell Charlo. The (slightly) younger and (slightly) smaller twin (35-1-1, 19 KOs) jumps two weight classes, giving us a battle of undisputed vs undisputed and an intriguing, unexpected matchup.
