Canelo seeks undisputed gold return against Mbilli in Riyadh
Alvarez enters this fight with a record of 63-3-2, looking to bounce back from his September loss to Terence Crawford, which snapped a six-fight winning streak. That streak included a decisive victory over William Scull, which saw Alvarez become a two-time undisputed champion in the division. Mbilli, however, has been a formidable force, holding the WBA, WBC, and IBF titles, making this a high-stakes clash for the unified belt.
The undercard features several notable matchups that will precede the main event, ensuring a full evening of boxing action for viewers. As the fight approaches, attention remains on whether Alvarez can adjust his strategy to overcome Mbilli’s technical prowess and regain his status as the division’s top contender. This bout is critical for Alvarez’s legacy, as a victory would restore his dominance in the super middleweight class.
