Saul ‘Canelo’ Alvarez’s super-fight against Terence Crawford will take place in Las Vegas on Saturday, 13 September.<\/b><\/p>\n
Mexican pound-for-pound great Alvarez will meet undefeated American Crawford for the undisputed super-middleweight title.<\/p>\n
The blockbuster will be streamed globally on Netflix and has been billed the “fight of the century” by Turki Alalshikh, chairman of Saudi Arabia’s general entertainment authority.<\/p>\n
It will be the first fight to be promoted by Alalshikh in collaboration with UFC president Dana White.<\/a><\/p>\n “Turki wants to make the biggest fights that the fans want to see in boxing and this is right up my alley,” said White.<\/p>\n “Are you kidding me that the first boxing fight I’m going to get to promote is Canelo versus Crawford? It’s literally a once-in-a-lifetime fight.”<\/p>\n Alvarez holds all four recognised world titles in the super-middleweight division after the 34-year-old beat William Scull last month.<\/a><\/p>\n That resulted in him regaining the IBF belt and the undisputed super-middleweight title, and after the fight Crawford was confirmed as his next opponent, with the pair posing for a face-off in the ring.<\/p>\n “I’m ready to show once again that I am the best pound-for-pound fighter in the world,” the Mexican said in a statement on Tuesday.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
