Not much was known about his mandatory challenger however.

Or his compensation for the bout.

Speaking after the fight reporter Mike Coppinger (hat tip) reported the pay day as on Twitter:

Not bad.

One can’t begrudge any of these boxers getting the most money possible in a short and very dangerous career and line of work.

Fair play to him.

Alvarez moves on to a more genuine test next up in the form of Billy Joe Saunders.

The fight is scheduled for May 8th as things stand.

Subject to change obviously.

Due to the world situation but not far away realistically.
