Ciudad de México Update:

Álvarez, hailing from Guadalajara, Jalisco, will defend his WBC, WBA (Super), and WBO titles, while aiming to reclaim the IBF belt he vacated in 2024 after opting not to face Scull, the mandatory challenger at the time. A victory would make Canelo a two-time undisputed champion at 168 pounds, further solidifying his legacy in boxing history.

The fight is scheduled to begin at 6:00 a.m. local time in Riyadh, which corresponds to 11:00 p.m. ET on Friday, May 2, in the United States. Fans can watch the event live on DAZN Pay-Per-View

During his professional career, Canelo has built up an impressive record of 62 wins - 39 of them by knockout, as well as two draws and two losses.

Which fights did Canelo Álvarez lose?

The 34-year-old has only lost two fights in his professional boxing career. The first was against undefeated Floyd Mayweather and he lost the WBC and The Ring super welterweight titles when he was just 19 years old. The other defeat was at the hands of Russian Dmitry Bivol, who took the WBA light heavyweight title from him.

It is worth mentioning that the native of the state of Jalisco has been champion in four different categories, which are super welterweight, middleweight, super middleweight and light heavyweight.
