Die-hard fans of boxing may expect upcoming bouts between Mexico’s pride, Canelo Alvarez, and Britain’s Chris Eubank Jr. This fight has elicited a different feel amongst the fan base, still expecting him to fight other big names such as David Benavidez, Dmitry Bivol in Remach, or Christian Mbilli. Both of these fighters are looked at as more deserving by the fans based on talent, status, and the possibility of facing Canelo Alvarez.
Vows To Be the Future Face of Boxing
Regardless of what fans have had to say, Chris Eubank Jr. has been bold enough to say that a victory over Canelo Alvarez would put him as the face of boxing. In an interview with his promoter Ben Shalom, talks are already being made to schedule the fight, and it’s feasible that it may happen before the year ends. Eubank Jr. has been sure of the fight, noting that apart from Benavidez, there are few names remaining in Canelo Alvarez’s weight class that would create so much interest in the fight. Eubank imagines that bout would be interesting to stage because he has a different style, a different personality, and a different background than his opponent.
What To Expect From a Canelo Alvarez-Eubank Jr. Fight
Still, the matter remains: Would the fight with Canelo be interesting to fans for the fight Eubank is ready to give? Some think his best opponents are Benavidez, Bivol, Mbilli, or someone like that because all of them are fighters who would pose a test to him. Nonetheless, unlike before, his career is at a place where he has a great say in his matches, choosing bouts that best suit him and his career path.
Canelo Alvarez is 62-2-2 with 39 knockouts and has continued to fight whoever he wanted to whenever he wanted. Edgar Berlanga affirmed both his ring dominance and significant pay-per-view cachet. This speaks volumes that though the fans may disagree with some of the decisions Canelo Alvarez has made, they are more than willing to come and watch him fight.
Final Thoughts
Eubank Jr., with a record of 34-3-0 with 25 knockouts, entered this discussion after defeating Kamil Szeremeta via knockout. Still, this win could be added to his records. Nevertheless, doubts arise about whether he is a worthy match for Canelo Alvarez.
The fight between Eubank Jr. and Canelo Alvarez would attract fans’ attention because of the difference in their characters and fighting techniques. Yet, one cannot help but think that fan interest in it potentially being a quite colorful and heated promotional war between two fighters could be further fueled by the British fighter’s seemingly cocky sense of entitlement.
Above all else, however, Canelo Alvarez is still a massive pay-per-view attraction, and the idea of a Canelo vs. Eubank Jr. fight will always have its market. However, it should also be noted whether this fight will occur and how the fans will react if the fight does occur. For now, the world is waiting for an official decision as to who will be the next worthy contender who will get a chance to challenge Canelo.
