One of the best boxers in the world, super middleweight king Saul Alvarez (58-2-2, 39 KOs) could face the British boxing star Chris Eubank Jr. (32-2, 23 KOs). At least that's what Matchroom Boxing head Eddie Hearn thinks.

“I love the idea of ​​the Canelo fight with Jaime Munguia that I already mentioned, as well as the rematch with this year’s Alvarez winner Dimitri Bivol, of course if Bivol beats Gilberto Ramirez. Chris Eubank Jr could also be a good opponent for Canelo. If Chris wins the big fight, his fight with Alvarez could be a huge deal," Hearn said.

Recall that on December 17, a fight between Chris Eubank Jr. and former world champion Liam Smith can take place.

This week, Canelo showed the results of surgery on his left wrist, which he had to undergo after his third fight victory over Gennady Golovkin in September. The return of Alvarez is expected in September next year.
