Interim WBC super middleweight champion Benavidez will face WBA regular champion in October David Morrell (9-0, 8 KOs).

In this situation, Canelo, who is due to return to the ring on September 16, is left without an opponent. The chances of organizing a rematch between Alvarez and Dmitry Bivol on this date are slim due to Bivol's excessive financial demands and the lack of agreement on the weight limit of the meeting.
