Canelo Alvarez vs. Callum Smith Preview: Two super-middleweight titles at stake

On Saturday night in the Alamodome in San Antonio, top pound for pound fighter Canelo Alvarez (53-1-2, 36 KOs) will take on Callum Smith (27-0, 19 KOs) for Smith’s WBA super middleweight title and the vacant WBC belt.

Canelo has been hopping around weight classes lately, following his fights with Gennady Golovkin he went up to super-middleweight and grabbed the WBA belt from Rocky Fielding. He then defended his middleweight titles against Daniel Jacobs and in his last fight moved up to light heavyweight and brutally knocked out Sergey Kovalev.
