On Saturday, May 7, 2022, Canelo Alvarez battled 175-pound WBA champion, Dmitry Bivol.

Bivol retained his title with a 12-round unanimous decision victory via scores of 115-113 three times.

“I feel like I can come out of this fight with my head held high because I gave the best of me in a different weight class,” said Alvarez after the fight. “I’m looking for challenges that take me out of my comfort zone.”

It’s unclear whether or not Canelo will opt to run it back immediately versus Bivol, but one thing is for certain, Bivol wants to be properly compensated and treated like a champion if a second fight happens.
