After Mexican star, the present face of boxing, Canelo Alvarez offers with Edgar Berlanga, as nearly everybody feels would be the case on September 14 in Las Vegas, the massive query will probably be – who subsequent for Canelo? And at this present second in time, it’s not an particularly straightforward query to reply.
Canelo we all know is not going to give us the battle we would like, and have wished for therefore lengthy, this a battle towards David Benavidez. So what WILL Canelo give us subsequent? As quite a few people have identified, Canelo doesn’t have too many apparent worthy opponents at 168 kilos proper now.
As such, and fairly amazingly, Chris Eubank Jr is in with an actual shot at touchdown a battle with Canelo subsequent yr. Neglect that Eubank has performed nothing to earn the possibility. Talking of a man who has earned a shot at Alvarez, WBC and Ring Journal NO1 ranked tremendous middleweight Christian Mbilli is asking for the following go at Canelo.
Canelo we all know isn’t too bothered about holding onto his assortment of belts, with the 34 yr previous lately vacating his IBF belt as a result of he wasn’t in any respect thinking about combating the man on the prime of the IBF pile (this being William Scull).
However as Mbilli’s promoter Camile Estephan stated when talking with Ring.TV.com, “who else if not Mbilli?” Estephan stated he actually believes Mbilli, 28-0(23) and coming off a one-sided win over the harder than powerful Sergey Derevyanchenko, can beat Canelo. “It’s apparent he ought to battle Canelo,” Estephan stated of Mbilli.
29 yr previous Mbilli of France believes it too. Estephan stated if the battle passed off in Canada, an enormous area can be required, however that he doesn’t suppose Canelo will conform to battle Mbilli in Canada – “[not] the primary one anyway – if we beat him we’ll give him a rematch, we’ll have it right here,” he stated.
Mbilli isn’t solely a worthy Canelo foe, the all-action Frenchman can be a lot enjoyable to look at, an actual fan-favourite. Mbilli, who throws so many punches he could make an opponent really feel as if he had been caught in a blizzard, has additionally proven a chin, nice stamina, and a few severe starvation and want.
It received’t be Benavidez subsequent for Canelo, it shouldn’t in any method be Eubank Jr, so who else can it’s however Mbilli? Diego Pacheco has been talked about and the unbeaten contender is asking for a go at Canelo. However Mbilli is unquestionably the very best, the obvious subsequent problem for Canelo.
Alvarez has needed to hearken to a whole lot of criticism from followers who strongly really feel he has flat-out ducked Benavidez. If the drum will get banged sufficient for a battle with Mbilli, with Mbilli remaining unbeaten and by no means stopping calling Canelo out, the Mexican warrior will certainly not let followers down once more……will he?
