While Alvarez is still the clear favorite (see below for the odds), there is a whisper campaign going on in the press, as to whether or not he's getting too old to keep the super middleweight throne. Complicating matters further is that this is Canelo's first fight since he had surgery on his left wrist, needed after his 2022 win over Gennady Golovkin.
So, to clear talk of Gervonta Davis, Alvarez is headed into battle against "The Gorilla" John Ryder, who hails from the United Kingdom. The No. 3-ranked fighter won his last four matches, and enters with a record of 32-5-0.
Not to look past Ryder (though many are), Canelo's next target would be David Benavidez, and a rematch against WBA (Regular) light heavyweight champion Dmitry Bivol. The Russian entered that fight with a 19-0 record, but was still seen as the underdog when he upset Alvarez.
So, here, Alvarez looks to get the right winds in his sails. Here's everything you need to know to get a Canelo vs Ryder live stream:
