In his past three fights, Saul “Canelo” Alvarez faced various expectations. He tried to regain his gold in a different division, faced Dmitry Bivol, and put an end to his long-running feud with Gennady Golovkin. He also faced John Ryder, and in his return to Mexico, he was given the opportunity to put on a show for his fans.
After struggling against Bivol, Canelo got past Ryder and Golovkin, and now he has a new challenger in Jermell Charlo, who is looking to add another title to his collection of belts at light middleweight.
Due to the number of prominent fighters who have gone the distance with Canelo, including Golovkin, Bivol, and Floyd Mayweather Jr., Charlo is regarded as an underdog. He has to prove himself to be a worthy successor to the past champions if he wants to catch a break.
