Canelo Alvarez is set to challenge Christian Mbilli for the WBC super middleweight title in Riyadh this September. This matchup marks Alvarez's comeback after a loss to Terence Crawford last year, a defeat that cost him the undisputed championship and led to elbow surgery. Alvarez, boasting a record of 63-3-2 with 39 knockouts, aims to reclaim his title. Meanwhile, Mbilli, undefeated at 29-0-1 with 24 KOs, was recently promoted to full champion after a split draw against Lester Martinez. The powerful French Cameroonian has showcased his skills with notable victories over Maciej Sulecki and Sergiy Derevyanchenko. While Alvarez had initially targeted September 12 for his return, an official date for this highly anticipated fight has yet to be confirmed.
