Who does not want to fight Canelo Alvarez? After defeating Errol Spence Jr. last year, Terence Crawford wished to face Alvarez at a catchweight to lay his hands on the latter’s undisputed Super-Middleweight title. Meanwhile, David Benavidez has long been desiring to face the Mexican phenom in the ring. On the other hand, Dmitry Bivol agreed to rematch Canelo should the fight take place at 168 lbs.

However, as per the latest updates, Canelo Alvarez is moving on with a different opponent on May 4th this year. In this connection, the undisputed Super-Middleweight champion resumed his training. And after Michael Benson shared Alvarez’s latest training clip, fans immediately reacted to it.
