Early Life and Nickname
Canelo Álvarez was born near Guadalajara, Mexico. When he was five, his family moved to Juanacatlán, Jalisco. Growing up on a farm, he learned to ride horses, a hobby he still enjoys today.
He is the youngest of eight children, and all seven of his brothers also became professional boxers! Some of his brothers include Ramón Álvarez, Ricardo Álvarez, and Rigoberto Álvarez.
His nickname, Canelo, means "Cinnamon" in Spanish. It's a common nickname for people with red hair, like him. In Mexico, red hair is sometimes linked to Irish soldiers who fought for Mexico a long time ago. Canelo once said, "There might have been an Irish grandfather somewhere back in my past." His neighbors also called him "Jícama con Chile," which is a popular snack in Mexico.
Amateur Boxing Career
Canelo started boxing when he was about 13 years old. He was inspired after watching his older brother Rigoberto's first professional fight.
In 2004, he won a silver medal at the Junior Mexican National Championships. The next year, in 2005, he became the Junior Mexican National Boxing Champion at just 15 years old. His amateur record was very impressive, with 44 wins and only 2 losses, including 12 knockouts.
Professional Boxing Journey
Starting Out
Canelo turned professional at 15 because his trainers couldn't find enough opponents for him in amateur boxing. In his first 19 months as a pro, he knocked out 11 of his 13 opponents, who were all much older than him.
One of his early fights was against Miguel Vázquez in January 2006, which he won. He fought Vázquez again in 2008 and won that rematch too. On June 28, 2008, Canelo and all six of his brothers made history by fighting on the same night!
Winning First World Titles
Canelo won his first major world title, the vacant WBC light middleweight belt, on March 5, 2011. He defeated Matthew Hatton by a unanimous decision in California. He then successfully defended this title against Ryan Rhodes and Alfonso Gómez.
In 2012, he beat boxing legend Shane Mosley by unanimous decision to keep his WBC title. Later that year, he defeated Josesito López by TKO in the fifth round, staying undefeated.
On April 20, 2013, Canelo faced Austin Trout in a big fight in Texas. He won by unanimous decision, adding the WBA (Unified) and vacant Ring light middleweight titles to his collection.
First Professional Loss
On September 14, 2013, Canelo faced undefeated boxing superstar Floyd Mayweather Jr.. This was a huge fight, and Mayweather won by a majority decision, giving Canelo his first professional loss.
Moving Up in Weight
After his first loss, Canelo started fighting at a slightly heavier weight, often at a "catchweight" of 155 pounds. He defeated Alfredo Angulo by TKO in 2014.
He then had a very close fight against Erislandy Lara in July 2014, winning by a split decision. In May 2015, he scored a spectacular third-round knockout against James Kirkland.
Middleweight Champion
On November 21, 2015, Canelo became the WBC and Ring middleweight champion by defeating Miguel Cotto by unanimous decision. This was a big win for him.
In May 2016, he defended his middleweight titles against British boxer Amir Khan, knocking him out in the sixth round with a powerful right hand. After this fight, Canelo decided to give up his WBC title, which was then awarded to Gennady Golovkin.
Back to Light Middleweight
Canelo then moved back down to light middleweight and challenged WBO champion Liam Smith in September 2016. He won the fight by knockout in the ninth round, becoming a world champion in a second weight class.
Big Fights and Rivalries
Canelo vs. Chávez Jr.
On May 6, 2017, Canelo fought Julio César Chávez Jr., another famous Mexican boxer. Canelo dominated the fight, winning every round and earning a clear unanimous decision. This fight was a huge event, selling over a million pay-per-view buys.
Canelo vs. Golovkin I & II
Right after the Chávez Jr. fight, Canelo announced he would fight Gennady Golovkin (often called "GGG") on September 16, 2017. This was one of the most anticipated fights in boxing. After 12 intense rounds, the fight was declared a split draw, meaning neither fighter won. Many people disagreed with the judges' scores.
A rematch between Canelo and Golovkin happened on September 15, 2018. This time, Canelo won by a majority decision after another very close and exciting fight. He became the WBA (Super), WBC, and vacant Ring middleweight champion.
Becoming a Four-Division Champion
Super Middleweight Debut
In December 2018, Canelo moved up to the super middleweight division for the first time. He fought British boxer Rocky Fielding for the WBA (Regular) super middleweight title. Canelo won easily by TKO in the third round, becoming a three-division world champion.
Unifying Middleweight Titles
Canelo returned to middleweight in May 2019 to face Daniel Jacobs. He won by unanimous decision, adding Jacobs' IBF middleweight title to his WBA (Super), WBC, and Ring belts, unifying three of the four major titles in the middleweight division.
Light Heavyweight Champion
In November 2019, Canelo made a big jump, moving up two weight classes to light heavyweight to challenge Sergey Kovalev for his WBO title. Canelo knocked out Kovalev in the eleventh round, making him a four-division world champion and only the second Mexican boxer to win a world title at light heavyweight.
Undisputed Super Middleweight Champion
Winning All the Belts
After his win over Kovalev, Canelo decided to focus on becoming the undisputed champion at super middleweight. He left his contract with Golden Boy Promotions in November 2020.
On December 19, 2020, he fought undefeated WBA (Super) and Ring super middleweight champion Callum Smith. Canelo dominated the fight, winning by unanimous decision and adding two more titles.
He then defended his titles against Avni Yıldırım in February 2021, winning by corner retirement in the third round.
In May 2021, Canelo faced undefeated WBO champion Billy Joe Saunders in a unification fight. Canelo won when Saunders' team stopped the fight in the eighth round due to an injury Saunders suffered from a powerful uppercut. This fight set a record for the largest indoor boxing attendance in US history with over 73,000 fans.
Finally, on November 6, 2021, Canelo fought undefeated IBF champion Caleb Plant in a historic fight to become the undisputed super middleweight champion. Canelo won by TKO in the eleventh round, becoming the first boxer ever to hold all four major world titles at super middleweight.
Return to Light Heavyweight and Second Loss
On May 7, 2022, Canelo moved back up to light heavyweight to challenge undefeated WBA (Super) champion Dmitry Bivol. In an upset, Bivol won by unanimous decision, handing Canelo his second professional loss. Canelo later said he wanted a rematch.
