Undisputed super middleweight champion Canelo Alvarez, arguably boxing‘s biggest superstar, will return to the ring on Saturday night to defend his title against Jermell Charlo. The PPV event kicks off at 8 p.m. ET at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.
The only way to watch tonight’s fight, which headlines the Premier Boxing Champions, is to purchase the PPV livestream which is available on both PPV.com and Fite.TV for $84.99. The PPV livestream is also available for purchase on Showtime.
While there isn’t a way to stream Canelo vs. Charlo online free, your FITE pass gets you free replays of the fight that you can watch online.
Tonight’s fight is not only highly anticipated because of the clash between two undisputed champions — at 33 years old, both fighters are nearing the end of their decorated careers — but also because of their similarities in skill, size and strategy. According to ESPN, both Alvarez and Charlo weighed exactly 167.4 pounds on Friday, one day before meeting in the ring. It marks the first four-belt vs. four-belt on the men’s side.
Considering the fairness of the match, even the most respected boxing experts are having a hard time calling the match. As of this writing, Canelo is the favorite with a moneyline of -480 against Charlo’s +330.
