Canelo is the Golden Boy first because he can fight his ever-loving ass off [Music] [Music] it's all over [Applause] just 21 years old [Applause] enough poking her right hand by Alvarez foreign [Music] [Applause] Canelo would be tested big against the legend Sugar Shane Mosley Sugar Shane Mosley it's terrific quite a terrific guy and the chance from a huge Mexican audience here in Las Vegas have already begun to go up which is cinnamon you know [Music] [Applause] foreign [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] Going the Distance Alvarez won a unanimous decision Canelo [Music] he now had the WBC and the WBA super welterweight titles he's been in a lot of Arenas since the 1980s for big fights few have been as electric as this Floyd Mayweather Jr is one of the greatest boxers to ever fight it's easy to see canelo's 42 wins and think Alvarez was ready for Floyd watch him stand in front of Canelo Canelo throws a left right he's over here popped but he was still just 23 years old is that if you're the money man you can pick and choose opponents fight them when they're not too dangerous take Canelo when he's 22 years old minimize the risk minimize the damage and get out with all your money and all your parties pretty good strategy for the fighter but maybe not for the sport he would go the distance with Money Mayweather ultimately it was a one-sided affair Mayweather remains money in Las Vegas [Applause] [Music] Steve Floyd handed out a master class in boxing to the 23 year old Canelo Alvarez took a lot from the defeat and over the next several fights his defensive skills flourished his head movement has been brilliant in the last couple of fights the Canelo continues just to slip punches beautifully standing in the pocket and using more head and body movement to force misses it's almost like an exercise in the ring Sergio when you say hey just slip and hit what level of aggression to beat Canelo should we expect from you tomorrow night I've never seen Kirkland try to play rope adult that tells you how hurt he must be I want to be on on him so close it's gonna feel like we're foreign [Applause] hey how you doing and then Canelo started to counter with big Power and just blasting him out with one of the great combinations we've seen in recent years demolished James Kirkland signature KO one for the highlight reels [Music] what a performance by Canelo Alvarez

of a Triple G type of fight Canelo back with the right hand 58 56 Gennady Golovkin it was a highly contested fight in a battle to unify the titles [Music] both Fighters standing toe-to-toe Triple G rallied Like A Champion down the stretch and that and to pull out what I thought was a draw a three-way split this is officially a draw that was an epic middleweight title fight the fight was a draw but many fell Triple G at one setting up a rematch to settle the score foreign [Applause] get ready to go in the ring in the remix the rematch was another battle this one closer than the first fight

Guadalajara Mexico [Applause] and out fighting the roughest and toughest in the whole wide world he moved up to contend for the super middleweight titles pitted against undefeated Champion Callum Smith [Applause] Canelo is poised to cement his legacy as one of the greatest boxers to ever fight Saul Alvarez Canelo Canelo Alvarez with the look of a world champion fighting four times in one year Canelo set him on becoming the first Mexican boxer in history to unify in the four belt era oftentimes when you get to this point in your career and you're setting guys up in front of an all-time great like Canelo he's knocking him down one after another it does not become Canelo vs insert name here it's Canelo versus Ghost it's Canelo versus great nice uppercut with the right hand he made quick work of his mandatory Challenger Carmelo Alvarez leaving no doubt in the minds of those who watched on this given night and over the last decade [Applause] a brilliant 1-2 closed out the [ __ ] the fight it's over no Moss from Abney eeldrum and this was just a pound for pound beat down next Canelo took on the WBO super middleweight champion Billy Joe Saunders Saunders was undefeated and thought to be a true challenge for Alvarez Canelo competed four times in 11 months this year I mean folks if you have a champion in their Prime and they're competing two or even let's say three that's a treat four I'm not gonna say it's unheard of but it is not common [Applause] looking for that counter right uppercut he's already missed it three times but he's thrown it with a lot of power yeah like always Canelo dictated the pace [Applause] [Applause] scores for Canelo round eight going to the body and setting up the uppercut you see Canelo Landing big shots and he's here the right eye of Saunders to swelling up Canelo in his troops here at ATT stadium and this is what Canelo got to opponent he breaks down a pencil the opposal Canelo acciwack he's already knocked him out after the fight his orbital was shattered ended up The Knockout win I'm not sure what happened to the corner of Southerners nevertheless after the eighth round Saunders was unable to continue [Applause] Canelo now possessed three of the four super middleweight belts all that remained was a showdown with ibf champion Caleb plant you look at the quality of opposition and now the length of it and again 31 years of age I can also remind you he has never been down on the canvas the fight would determine the first Undisputed super middleweight champion in the four belt era plant was undefeated entering the fight with 21 wins introducing a final dance with super middleweight history for Canelo Alvarez who aim to cement his status among Mexican boxers laughs the fight lived up to expectations thrilling the sold out crowd at the MGM Grand these are heavy blows and trust me we can see and hear these shots they're heavy [Music] each fighter brought their best not just a fantastic game plan here by Canelo but the discipline to stay on that game plan throughout into those uh Championship rounds as you mentioned Caleb won a few rounds but as the fight carried on Canelo separated wow

picture of Destruction [Applause] with the victory Alvarez had proven again that he reigns over the rest foreign [Applause] the best boxer in the sport Canelo has only just now entered the prime of his career does he have the same length of resume as Lexia Chavez no but I think if you just add up the accomplishments and some of the rare air that he now occupies [Applause] time he's done I think
