Canelo Alvarez, having already started training again, seems to be gearing up for his next boxing challenge. There’s talk that David Benavidez or Demetrius Andrade, depending on their upcoming bout’s outcome, could be his next opponent. Given the skills and reputation of both potential contenders, Canelo’s early return to the training ring signals his commitment to ensuring he's fully prepared for the challenge ahead.
Recently, Canelo showcased his prowess by decisively defeating Jermell Charlo, marking another significant win in his illustrious career. This victory only solidified his standing in the boxing world. However, not all prospective fights are being met with the same level of enthusiasm. For instance, the prospect of Canelo taking on Jermall Charlo, the middleweight champion who hasn’t stepped into the ring for nearly three years, isn’t generating much excitement among fans.
Another potential, yet highly controversial matchup, could be against MMA superstar Conor McGregor. This potential fight has received mixed reactions. Many, including boxing legend Carl Froch, believe it to be more of a spectacle than a genuine contest, with McGregor’s boxing skills not being on par with an established boxer like Canelo.
