This weekend, in the early hours of Sunday morning, Canelo Alvarez defends his undisputed world super-middleweight title against USA’s Jermell Charlo. It’s an intriguing contest, with Charlo stepping up two weight classes to take his shot at Alvarez.  

UK betting sites will expect big numbers on the fight, as it’s one that should interest even the most casual of boxing fans. With Alvarez being regarded as one of the all-time greats and Charlo being dominant in his own weight class, it promises to be a cracker.

Alvarez v Charlo Best Bets

These fighters are both counter-punchers, so it could be a more tentative fight than most, with both keen to wait for a gap to exploit. With that being the case, don’t expect an early finish, although that is baked into the odds, with the fight 2/5 to go the distance with most new betting sites. 

This appears to be a classic case of a good big guy taking on a good smaller guy. In most fights like that, the good big guy wins, which suggests Canelo will have too much for Charlo to deal with. His size might be enough to see him end it inside the distance, which has been boosted with William Hill. For a bigger priced punt, Alvarez to win in the 11^th round, which he’s done the last twice he won by KO / TKO, is available at 22/1 with bet365 .
