Saul ‘Canelo’ Álvarez lost to Dmitry Bivol on points after moving back up to the heaviest weight of his career to contend for the 175-pound title. Bivol retained his WBA light heavyweight title and maintained his perfect record, though but none of his previous victories come close to the magnitude of Saturday’s dominant win. Canelo said he was ‘very proud’ despite his loss as he is ‘looking for challenges that others would be scared to take on’.
