Charlo, the unified junior middleweight champ, moved up two weight classes to take on Alvarez.
His performance against Charlo figured to be a measuring stick on whether Alvarez could recreate some of his previous magic. There's no doubt now that he can, but the question is whether the Mexican-born fighter can sustain it.WBC president Mauricio Sulaiman has declared David Benavidez will be his mandatory challenger for the super middleweight belt.
Alvarez spent his training camp preparing to take it to Charlo's body, and that's exactly what he did. Round after round, Alvarez backed up Charlo, throwing one punch after another at his midsection. Alvarez delivered even more power punches in the fourth round as the Houston resident continued to play defense, apparently hoping Alvarez would provide him an opening. But Alvarez moved forward without any apparent concern that would happen.
