Canelo-Charlo set as both weigh in at 167.4 lbs.

Canelo Alvarez and Jermell Charlo both weighed 167.4 pounds on Friday ahead of their undisputed super middleweight title bout Saturday in Las Vegas.

Jermell wasn't even the original Charlo opponent. It was his twin brother, Jermall, who was first earmarked to face Alvarez. Jermall is the bigger Charlo and holds the WBC title at 160 pounds, but he hasn't competed since June 2021 because of a personal matter. So Jermell stepped in.

"I think he can handle the weight, too, because he's taller," added Alvarez, who is 5-foot-8 while Charlo is 6-foot."He's strong. ... I think [the extra weight] is going to be good for him. ... Maybe he struggled to make 154."
