Canelo Alvarez vs Jermall Charlo will likely take place on September 16, 2023, on Mexican Independence Day Weekend. However, it is yet to be announced officially.
Alvarez shifted his focus back to the super middleweight division after he failed to defeat Dmitry Bivol for the light heavyweight title in May 2022. He rebounded from this loss by defeating Gennady Golovkin and John Ryder.
On the other hand, Jermall Charlo is still undefeated in all of his 32 bouts. He was last active in 2021 where he defeated Juan Macias Montiel via unanimous decision win.
Now, it will be quite interesting to see whether Jermall Charlo will be able to continue his undefeated run by beating Canelo Alvarez and become an undisputed champion.
