Mexican boxing superhero and
pride of Guadalajara, Jalisco, Mexico, Canelo Alvarez (42-1-1, 30 KO’s)
returns to the ring hungrier than ever after a hard-fought loss to the
pound for pound king Floyd Mayweather in September 2013. His bout
against Mayweather marked the highest grossing pay-per-view event in
history and made him a hero to thousands of boxing fans all around the
world. Now, six months later, the 23-year-old is ready to make his
highly anticipated ring return and prove to the world that he really
does belong amongst the elite fighters of his generation.
Alfredo “El Perro” Angulo (22-3, 18 KO’s) from Mexicali, Baja
California, Mexico is a fan-favorite in the boxing world. The
31-year-old star embodies the guts and glory of a true Mexican warrior
and has every intention of demonstrating this against the younger
Canelo. Like Canelo, Angulo is also coming off of a controversial loss
after suffering an eye injury during the ninth round of an exciting
showdown against top Super Welterweight Erislandy Lara in June 2013. A
win against Canelo would cement Angulo’s status as one of boxing’s most
dangerous fighters and catapult him to the top of the list of world
title contenders.
“Six months ago, movie theaters were packed
with boxing fans eager to watch the match-up between the reigning
boxing kings of the U.S. and Mexico,” said Shelly Maxwell, executive
vice president of Fathom Events. “We are thrilled to welcome Canelo
back to another amazing fight as he and Angulo go ‘toe to toe’ for a
night that will surely leave you on the edge of your seat.”
