Canelo Alvarez is still one of boxing’s biggest stars in the entire sport worldwide. An all-time great and not old for pro boxing these days.
He came up against one of the greatest fighters that ever lived last time out against Terence Crawford in a genuine super fight.
Alvarez lost on points and Crawford has gone down as one of the greatest fighters that ever lived in boxing.
Crawford has since retired.
Why Canelo Must Make Important Move In 2026
Enter Alvarez’ comeback in 2026. It has been confirmed now that he will return in September in Saudi Araba against an opponent to be confirmed.
His fight against Crawford was at super-middleweight last time and he hasn’t boxed well there before at 168 pounds.
However he has boxed outstanding at middleweight previously at 160 pounds and he is not a big partier in between fights, there is no reason why he can’t still make middleweight surely.
He brutally knocked out Amir Khan at middleweight before and has had great fights at middleweight.
We believe this simple move can make all the difference for him this year. Super-middleweight time and time again hasn’t been a great division for him.
Here is Canelo’s comeback date in boxing at the moment.
