Canelo Alvarez hasn’t fought in Mexico since 2011, and that’s not likely to change anytime soon. Though he’d initially intended to face WBC mandatory super middleweight challenger Avni Yildirim in his native Guadalajara this upcoming February, ESPN reports that the fight will instead take place stateside due to COVID.
Per the article, he still intends to pursue a May clash with Billy Joe Saunders, which would also take place in the States.
Mexico currently boasts one of the highest coronavirus case-fatality ratios in the world, with a staggering 8.8% of cases resulting in death. While there’s still boxing going on in the nation, someplace like Texas would offer a monumentally larger live gate.
