Canelo Alvarez eyes September bout with Christian Mbilli while set for November showdown with Caleb Plant

Mexican star Canelo Álvarez is being linked to a September clash with unbeaten Christian Mbilli for the WBC super‑middleweight title. Former champion Hamzah Sheeraz predicts Alvarez could stop Mbilli inside six rounds, citing the Mexican veteran’s counter‑punching skill and experience.

Separately, a confirmed fight has been scheduled for November 6 at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas. Alvarez will face undefeated American champion Caleb Plant in a Premier Boxing Champions event televised by SHOWTIME. The winner aims to become the first undisputed super‑middleweight champion of the four‑belt era, adding the IBF belt to Alvarez’s existing WBA, WBC and WBO titles.
