The undefeated ‘Superb’, has vanquished all his opponents, and given his record, he could be Alvarez’s toughest test at super middleweight. However, he hasn’t faced someone as sturdy as Canelo in his entire boxing career. Considering this, a fight between the two promises to be an absolute blinder as both of them are equally hungry to solidify their reign.
Despite having his own war to focus on, expect ‘Superb’ to keep a close eye on Morrison vs Eubank Jr.
