Former unified lightweight champion George Kambosos Jr is picking Canelo Alvarez to defeat Jermall Charlo in September in the Mexican star’s first fight of his three-fight deal with PBC.
Undisputed super middleweight champion Canelo Alvarez’s new contract deal with Al Haymon’s PBC is in excess of $100 million for three fights, beginning with a September 2023 title defense against Jermall Charlo.
Canelo Alvarez has signed a three-fight deal with PBC and will be battling Jermall Charlo in a title defense of his undisputed super middleweight championship on September 16th at a still-to-be-determined location.
Matchroom promoter Eddie Hearn has confirmed that Jermall Charlo is the frontrunner for Canelo Alvarez’s next fight in September. Hearn states that attempts at putting a rematch together between Canelo (59-2-2, 39 KOs) and WBA light heavyweight champion Dmitry Bivol have failed, so the Mexican star is moving on.
WBC middleweight champion Jermall Charlo, the unbeaten Demetrius Andrade, spoke on social media, agreeing to fight in October.

Eddie Hearn says he was contacted by Jermall Charlo recently about his wanting to fight Canelo Alvarez. Although Hearn isn’t entirely ruling out the possibility of the inactive 32-year-old Jermall (32-0, 22 KOs) fighting Canelo, he says the priority is Dmitry Bivol for September.
Middleweight champion Jermall Charlo says he’s betting $10,000 on Ryan Garcia to defeat Gervonta ‘Tank’ Davis next Saturday night on April 22nd.
