Decorated Mexican champion Saul Canelo Alvarez will face undisputed junior middleweight champion Jermell Charlo in the first-ever four-belt vs. four-belt battle on the men’s side. The eyes of the contact sports world will be on Las Vegas this weekend with an unprecedented showdown taking place tonight at the T-Mobile Arena in the U.S. This will be the tapatío’s third defense of his undisputed titles, while marking Charlo’s debut in a new weight class.
Jermell Charlo earned undisputed status at 154 pounds in his last outing when he scored a TKO of Brian Castano in May 2022. The bout was a rematch from their 2021 encounter that ended in a disputed draw that many believe Castano had done enough to win. Charlo is unbeaten in his last five fights since losing a decision to Tony Harrison in 2019.
“I’m a warrior. I did what I had to do, and now we’re at this moment. I don’t think Canelo has faced a fighter of my caliber. He’s been in there with great fighters, but there’s something I bring to the table that’s a lot different than anyone he’s seen,” Charlo said at the final press conference.
Canelo Alvarez is coming off two straight wins against Gennady Golovkin, with whom he completed the trilogy, and against England’s John Ryder; both a bit lackluster. Prior to that he had lost for the second time in his career to Dmitry Bivol.
While Jermell has not seen official activity since May 2022. On that occasion, Charlo defeated Argentine Brian Castaño, by knockout, after an initial draw in 2021.
