Callum Smith is relishing the prospect of testing himself against Saul ‘Canelo’ Alvarez on Saturday and has stressed his belief he will emerge victorious.
The pair meet in a unification bout at the Alamodome in Texas, with Smith defending his WBA super-middleweight title for a third time and the vacant WBC belt also up for grabs.
Unbeaten Smith (27-0, 19 KOs) has no doubt Alvarez (53-1-2, 36 KOs) is boxing’s best pound-for-pound fighter, and that he is regarded as the underdog against the Mexican, who has been a world champion in four weight categories.
