Saul “Canelo" Alvarez
Canelo Alvarez boasts a legendary career, with a record of 39 KOs from 60 victories. The 33-year-old superstar is coming off a dominant win against Jermell Charlo in September 2023. He's only ever lost to the great Floyd Mayweather and light heavyweight champion Dmitry Bivol. Canelo's exceptional skills and experience make him a must-watch fighter, even if some fans are calling for him to face tougher competition. Canelo is a future Hall of Famer and has won three on the bounce since his 2022 setback against Bivol. The Mexican star went the distance in his wins over Gennady Golovkin, John Ryder, and Jermell Charlo.
