After his victory over Jaime Munguia, Canelo Alvarez is uncertain about his next opponent. However, Chris Eubank Jr. has emerged as a leading contender to face the 33-year-old Mexican. And since Canelo aims to fight on the Mexican Independence Day weekend in Las Vegas, he may consider Eubank Jr. as his next opponent.
Negotiations for Alvarez’s next fight have been a rollercoaster, as he has nearly defeated multiple world champions. A potential fight with Eubank Jr. would likely be for Alvarez’s undisputed super middleweight titles.
Eubank Jr. is 34 years old, and his last fight was a TKO victory over Liam Smith in September 2023. Eubank holds an impressive record of 33 wins, 3 losses, and 24 knockouts. The Mexican boxing king, Alvarez, has an equally impressive record of 61 wins, 2 losses, 2 draws, and 39 knockouts.
Chris Eubank Jr. has started a new phase in his boxing career by signing with Sky Sports and their partner, Boxxer. However, negotiations for his next fight are still ongoing.
Will Canelo Alvarez’s Fight and UFC Noche Clash?
UFC Noche at the Sphere is scheduled for September 14 in Las Vegas. Combat sports fans eagerly anticipate this event, with UFC president Dana White heavily promoting the new UFC Sphere venue.
Additionally, Mexican boxing superstar Alvarez will fight on September 14. Given that Canelo is Mexican, he plans to fight on Mexican Independence Day to cater to his Mexican fan base. If the start times for these two major events do not overlap, combat sports fans can fully enjoy both the UFC Noche at the Sphere and Canelo’s fight on the same day.
