Canelo Alvarez’s Betting Outlook vs Charlo

Canelo is regarded by many as arguably the biggest star in boxing today and is a pound-for-pound ranked talent within the sweet science.

The four-division world champion looks to notch his sixtieth professional win in a historic contest versus a fellow four bel5t, undisputed world titleholder.

Initial discussions leading into this leaned more towards the larger Charlo twin, Jermall, being the one to get the Canelo fight.

Things did not pan out for the middleweight titleholder and Jermell became the fighter opposite Alvarez this weekend.

Canelo Alvarez vs Jermell Charlo Recent Fights

Canelo has held world titles as high as 175 pounds while his opponent here has never journeyed above competing at 154 pounds as a professional pugilist.

Jermell Charlo’s Betting Outlook vs Alvarez

Charlo is also an undisputed champion at light middleweight and jumps up two weight categories for this anomalous undisputed versus undisputed fight in the four-belt era. He looks to become an undisputed belt holder yet again in an even higher weight category against a generational great within the sport.

Jermell Charlo has bested everyone he has ever stepped in the ring with but he faces his biggest test yet this weekend.

Both have their own advantages and despite the aforementioned accomplishments in higher weight divisions, Canelo’s height and reach is actually a bit less than Charlo’s.

Canelo Alvarez vs Jermell Charlo Tale of the Tape

Alvarez vs Charlo Prediction

This prizefight is scheduled to go for twelve rounds and I see value in seeking out a prop bet on this fight not going the distance (+175).

Some thin Canelo has lost a step in recent outings as far as finishing ability and Charlo has never been stopped as a pro but I see some things changing a bit in the coming days.

I foresee value in seeking out prop bets on Canelo winning via KO or TKO (+250) and Canelo winning between rounds 7-9 (+700).
