Canelo Alvarez Slated for Sept. 12 Return in Saudi Arabia

Turki Alalshikh said Canelo Promotions’ first Riyadh card, “Mexico Against the World,” lands Sept. 12 with Alvarez headlining for a world title, opponent TBD. Alalshikh teased “a big, big fight.” Alvarez (63-3-2, 39 KOs) returns about a year after his Sept. 13, 2025 Terence Crawford loss and elbow surgery. Meanwhile, Crawford retired Dec. 16, removing the rematch option for now.
