Canelo Alvarez vs Dmitry Bivol live stream: How to watch
The Mexican and Russian boxers go head to head for the WBA light-heavyweight title.
Canelo Alvarez is already regarded as the undisputed champion at super middleweight, and this weekend the Mexican boxer hopes to add another title to his collection as he returns to light-heavyweight action.
He'll be facing off against Dmitry Bivol, and will be looking to take the Russian's WBA title off him – which he has held since 2017.
Bivol is unbeaten in his previous 19 fights – which have included 11 knockouts – while Canelo has managed 39 knockouts in his 60 professional bouts, so it's finely poised to be an electrifying encounter.
