Saul ‘Canelo’ Alvarez Record

Saul ‘Canelo’ Alvarez is without any doubt the single biggest name in the sport of boxing today. The fighting pride of Mexico remains the biggest star in the sport, despite being in the later years of his career and not fighting just as regularly as he once did.

Fast forward to now and ‘Canelo’ boasts an incredible boxing record of 61-2-2. The Mexican superstar has been fighting professionally since he was just 14-years-old, having fought for two full decades as a prize fighter.

The 34-year-old has won 61 of his 65 fights, suffering just two defeats throughout his entire career. Of these 61 wins, ‘Canelo’ had won an incredible 39 of them via knockout.

‘Canelo’ is in fact undefeated at super-middleweight, with his only two defeats coming up at light-heavyweight and of course years ago against the great Floyd ‘Money’ Mayweather. ‘Canelo’ is usually always odds on to beat his opponent with the best UK betting sites, no matter who is in the opposite corner.

Highly touted as the man to take over the boxing mantle from Mayweather, ‘Canelo’ didn’t disappoint and has become the single biggest draw in the entire sport of boxing. He attracts the biggest gates, the most viewers, the biggest pay-per-view revenue, and generates the biggest purses in boxing.

The 34-year-old is the biggest cash cow in the sport, with millions of fans tuning in to watch him for each and every one of his fights.

Alvarez’s first taste of world title success came way back in March 2011 when he defeated Britain’s Matthew Hatton for the WBC World Super-Welterweight Title. ‘Canelo’ won the fight via unanimous decision, becoming world champion for the very first time in the process.

That was the first of 22 world title triumphs for the Mexican. ‘Canelo’ defended the WBC belt five times before unifying the 154-pound division when defeating Austin Trout back in April 2013. A fight later, ‘Canelo’ then lost for the first time as a pro as he was defeated by the great Floyd Mayweather.

Following that defeat, Alvarez soon stepped up to middleweight where he became world champion in defeating Miguel Cotto. After campaigning for another couple of years at middleweight, which included his two mammoth fights against Golovkin, ‘Canelo’ then decided to move up another weight, this time to super-middleweight.

He obliterated Rocky Fielding in three rounds, before then moving back down to middleweight again for a fight against Daniel Jacobs. Next was the light-heavyweight division, where ‘Canelo’ faced Sergey Kovalev for the WBO World Title at 175-pounds. ‘Canelo’ won this fight via stoppage in the 11th round.

After his solo fight at light-heavyweight, ‘Canelo’ decided it was time to completely wipe out the super-middleweight division. In quick succession, Alvarez defeated Callum Smith, Anvi Yildrim, Billy Joe Saunders, and Caleb Plant. In just four fights Alvarez claimed all four world title belts at 168-pounds. Quite an incredible feat.

Alvarez then dared to be great once again, stepping up to light-heavy once more to take on the unbeaten Russian Dmitry Bivol. ‘Canelo’ fell short on that occasion, but soon bounced back by putting an end to his long-term rivalry with ‘GGG’. Alvarez beat Golovkin via wide unanimous decision, also defending his four world super-middleweight titles in the process.

Then of course came his two fights in 2023 against John Ryder and Jermell Charlo. ‘Canelo’ once again won both fights via wide unanimous decision, putting on a show for his hometown fans in Guadalajara, Mexico for the Ryder fight and putting a beatdown on Charlo in his second home of Las Vegas.

Then came another defence, this time in an all-Mexican affair against the unbeaten Jaime Munguia in March. Like he has done for four consecutive fights now, Alvarez won the contest via unanimous decision. ‘Canelo’ hasn’t tasted victory via stoppage since November 2021 now.

That takes us up to date in the career of Saul ‘Canelo’ Alvarez. He has won 22 world title fights in total and has already been crowned a world champion in four different weight classes. The man is an absolute beast inside the boxing ring and will take some beating.

At just 34-years-old, ‘Canelo’ still has plenty left in the tank and is sure to be around world level for the next few years. Who knows, he could even surpass 25 world title fight victories and add a world title in yet another division. You wouldn’t put it past him.
