  • Canelo Alvarez is currently the undisputed super middleweight champion of the world.
  • Canelo Alvarez is one of the pound-for-pound boxers in the world.
  • Canelo Alvarez is coming off a win over John Ryder.

Mexico’s Canelo Alvarez is coming off his latest title defense against tough opponent John Ryder in May 2023, where he retained his status as the undisputed super middleweight champion of the world with a masterful and lopsided unanimous decision win. It was the third time that Alvarez had defended all super middleweight titles.

This dominant win for Alvarez has solidified his place as one of boxing’s premier athletes in online sports betting through boxing odds. But when will the Mexican superstar be back inside the ring? And who will be his next worthy opponent?

When is Canelo Alvarez’s Next Fight?

Canelo Alvarez has called for a title rematch with his former tormentor Dmitry Bivol during his post-fight interview following his decision win over Ryder.

Bivol gave Alvarez his second career defeat with a unanimous decision win.

The Mexican superstar is eager to get his revenge against Bivol and capture another title in the 175-pound division to prove that he is the best pound-for-pound boxer in the world today.

The Mexican superstar’s biggest single fight payout was his last fight with Golovkin, where he was guaranteed $45 million. These denominations were inclusive of base pay and pay-per-view shares but excluded his endorsement deals outside of boxing.
