Eddie Hearn said that he thinks the next fight Canelo Alvarez will take place in May. Hearn said Canelo was told he should be fine to start training again two months after undergoing successful wrist surgery following his Gennady Golovkin trilogy.

Eddie Hearn suggested that they could arrange a rematch between Alvarez and Dmitry Bivol for the title of absolute super middleweight champion, and then, if Bivol wins, try to return to light heavyweight and organize a meeting with Artur Beterbiev for the absolute title of 79 kg.
