So that&#8217;s why I like fighting in Vegas, and there&#8217;s a lot of history there.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>The 33-year-old Alvarez has been a big part of that history, whether it&#8217;s beating Gennadiy Golovkin twice with another fight ending in a split draw, or defeating Shane Mosley, Daniel Jacobs or Sergey Kovalev. His favorite memory is of the one-sided unanimous decision over Miguel Cotto in November 2015.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;He&#8217;s a great champion,&#8217; Alvarez said in the ring after that fight, &#8216;but now it&#8217;s my era.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>WBC president Mauricio Sulaiman previously declared David Benavidez will be Canelo&#8217;s mandatory challenger for the super middleweight belt.<\/p>\n<p>But Alvarez has not committed to facing Benavidez, a 26-year-old who is 27-0 with all but four by knockout. If Alvarez beats Charlo and turns down Benavidez, the WBC likely would vacate his championship.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;I&#8217;m going to win (versus Charlo), but I don&#8217;t know what is next,&#8217; Alvarez said. &#8216;I&#8217;m going to sit down with my team and talk about it because I&#8217;m 100% focused on this fight.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>As for his potential options post-Charlo, Alvarez said his intention would be to &#8216;make the best fights out there. We will see after this fight.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>Canelo did lose by unanimous decision to Dmitry Bivol in May 2022, though all three judges had the fight close at 115-113. Alvarez rebounded with a unanimous decision a year ago over Golovkin and then easily beat John Ryder in May on the scorecards. But Triple G had seen his best boxing days, and Ryder was simply outclassed.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailymail.co.uk\/sport\/boxing\/article-12580001\/Canelo-Alvarez-beats-Jermell-Charlo-retains-titles.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read Full Article<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Canelo Alvarez puts on a clinic against Jermell Charlo, winning easy unanimous decision to retain his four super middleweight titles The WBC\u00a0previously said that\u00a0David Benavidez will be Canelo&#8217;s next bout DailyMail.com provides all the latest international sports news\u00a0 Any hints that Saul &#8216;Canelo&#8217;
