Read our privacy policy Canelo Alvarez will fight Caleb Plant on 6 November to crown the undisputed super-middleweight world champion. Dmitry Bivol was highlighted as an alternative opponent, with Canelo possibly moving up to 175 pounds for a shot at the Russian’s light heavyweight world title. It will also be Canelo’s fourth fight inside 12 months, following another masterful performance to befuddle Callum Smith and a routine knockout win over the overmatched Turkish fighter Avni Yildirim. While Plant, 21-0, 12 KOs, is coming off a points decision in January against compatriot and former world champion Caleb Truax, whose most famous night came in 2017 when he outpointed James DeGale to take the IBF title, before ‘Chunky’ won the rematch four months later.
