Canelo Alvarez Narrows Next Fight to Two Opponents

Canelo Alvarez, fresh off a unanimous decision victory over Jaime Munguia, is narrowing down his next opponent to either Chris Eubank Jr. or Edgar Berlanga for a fight likely in September. Eubank Jr., who recently redeemed himself with a TKO victory over Liam Smith, is seen as the frontrunner, while Berlanga, though undefeated, is criticized for facing low-level opposition. Fans and analysts express disappointment over these choices, preferring a fight against David Benavidez or Terence Crawford. Promoter Eddie Hearn advocates for Berlanga due to marketability, despite acknowledging his lack of high-caliber opponents. Alvarez is also planning a potential superfight with Crawford for Cinco de Mayo 2025.
