Canelo Alvarez turns down $100 million deal

As per the reports, Saul ‘Canelo’ Alvarez turned down a $100 million deal with Premier Boxing Champions (PBC). It was a two-fight deal to fight Jermall Charlo and Errol Spence Jr or David Benavidez, respectively.  

The pound-for-pound king had other plans for himself; he signed a $160 million three-fight deal with Matchroom Boxing.

Dmitry Bivol, a Russian boxer, was the first opponent. Bivol won the fight by decision, which was one of the biggest upsets for Alvarez aficionados. Moreover, his next bout was intended to be a trilogy with Gennady Golovkin, but with Alvarez’s latest loss, the trilogy’s chances may be jeopardized.
