We are now in the final countdown phase, tutting, while totting up the hours until Saturday fight night at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada, when Saúl “Canelo” Álvarez will fiercely defend his super middleweight world titles against ferociously ferrous undisputed super welterweight world champion, Jermell “Iron Man” Charlo.
It`s the first time that two undisputed champions face each other to test who`s best. Forever a First for Fists!
Throughout this week, we`ve fondly remembered the finest champions of the super welterweight and super middleweight divisions, as a tribute to Charlo and Canelo, who are focused to dazzle. Closing and concluding this constellation ascent, on the “Walk of Fame” here we are, as we`ve finally arrived from the long and winding road, to the front door of the protagonists of the evening. None other than…Saul “Canelo” Álvarez and Jermell Charlo.
After triumphing against “The Pride of Islington” John Ryder at the Akron stadium in Jalisco, Canelo turns back to the United States and the city in the desert, to present his 168-pound championships for the third time. He has a record of 7-1-1 in fights in the month of September, including his trilogy win against Gennady Golovkin.
Jermell Charlo who`s also 33 years old and undisputed super welterweight champion, comes into this fight after stopping teak tough Argentine Brian Castaño, in a punctuating, splintering decider!
The American has brilliantly built a record of 35-1-1, with 19 knockouts and this will be his debut at super middleweight. Among his most notable vanquished rivals: Brian Castaño, Austin Trout, Gabriel Rosado, and Tony Harrison.
