With his paramount boxing abilities, Canelo Alvarez has become a household name in the world of boxing today. He has enjoyed a decorated career and is showing no signs of slowing down. Until now, he has confronted some of the best fighters in the business and fared exuberantly against most of them, barring one. i.e. Floyd Mayweather.

Alvarez and Mayweather fought each other in 2013, wherein the Mexican boxer succumbed to his first and only loss. Subsequently, Alvarez proved to be one of the most improved boxers of all time and has won multiple world championships. Moreover, he feels if Mayweather fights him today, he can hand the undefeated boxer his maiden defeat.

Speaking to Univision, Alvarez said, “Without a doubt I would beat him, it would be a very different fight. I am a more mature fighter, it would be a totally different fight.” (h/t Boxing Scene)

In a 12 round war between Mayweather and Alvarez, the former was the undeniable favorite, but many expected Alvarez to turn the tables. However, ‘Money’ battered his young adversary to the pulp and registered a sensational win.

After that fight, the pair never re-matched, but Alvarez took that loss into his stride and moved ahead to cement his reign. Today the 30-year-old is the best pound-for-pound boxer on the planet and is nowhere close to done.

Can Canelo Alvarez pragmatically beat Floyd Mayweather in a rematch?

A young Canelo’s experience and boxing prowess was overshadowed when he fought Mayweather for the very first time. Following that defeat, he raised his game to the next level.

Alvarez is one of the best stylistic pugilists present today. By adding constant wins to his resume, he has already begun walking on the legendary path. That said, if he fought Floyd Mayweather by any chance today, he would provide ‘Money’ with a sturdy in-ring test.
