Canelo Alvarez and Jermell Charlo faced off on Saturday, September 30, 2023, in Las Vegas, Nevada, for the undisputed Super Middleweight championship of the world.
Alvarez, the unified champion boasting the WBC, WBA (Super), IBF, and WBO titles, was rightly the favorite with odds of -400 against Charlo, the underdog at odds of 300. BetMGM’s -275 odds showed a general expectation for the bout to go all 12 rounds.
The 33-year-old Alvarez, hailing from Guadalajara, Jalisco, Mexico, entered the ring as the evidently stronger fighter, with a commendable 59-2-2 record, including an impressive 10-1 since 2018.
His 7-0 record in super middleweight bouts emphasized his versatility to box both on the outside and inside. Charlo, while talented, prefers to box on the outside, leaning heavily on his extended jab.
Charlo had to rely on his speed, footwork, and maintain distance to have a chance against Alvarez.
Despite his best efforts to land a decisive blow early on, Alvarsanelo to win by KO/TKO/Technical Decision or DQ at 240, but those who wagered on the fight not lasting the distance would have also found value at 175.
