In a battle of undisputed champions, super middleweight titleist, Canelo Álvarez will defend his crown against the junior middleweight ruler Jermell Charlo on Saturday, September 30.

Reports placed elder brother Jermall Charlo as the opponent for Canelo on Sep 30 but it is understood that the WBC Middleweight title holder wouldn’t be ready in time after personal issues which have kept him out of the ring for over two years.

Canelo’s undisputed title will be on the line against Charlo, who is moving up two-weight classes and will lose his undisputed status as soon as he enters the ring as the WBO will elevate Tim Tszyu to full champion.

Houston’s Charlo (35-1-1, 19 KOs) was last seen in action last May where he scored a stoppage win over Brian Castano, who most felt beat Charlo in their 2021 fight, to unify four titles at 154.

Canelo had a difficult 2022, losing for the first time in nine years to Dmitry Bivol at Light Heavyweight and then producing a less-than-spectacular showing against GGG in their trilogy fight. Britain’s John Ryder also extended Mexico’s Alvarez the twelve-round distance in May.

Canelo vs Charlo is one of the biggest fights in boxing and a matchup that has captured the imagination of fight fans with early predictions expecting this fight to generate around a 1m buys.
