Canelo Alvarez vs. Christian Mbilli: Fight Card and Start Time for World Title Showdown

The Mexican superstar will square off against the undefeated Christian Mbilli (29-0-1, 24 KOs) for the World Boxing Council (WBC) super middleweight championship. The pair headline a blockbuster fight night billed as "Mexico vs. The World," staged at The Venue in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
