This usually doesn’t happen and both sports tend to avoid one another clashing on the same night.

Alvarez continues to reportedly be close to selling out his Edgar Berlanga fight however at the T-Mobile with UFC still struggling in Las Vegas:

🚨 Tickets for Canelo Alvarez vs Berlanga are selling well and the event will likely sell out‼️ The UFC are struggling to sell the remaining tickets at heavily discounted prices. The UFC’s attempt to take Canelo’s Mexican Independence day fight date, has failed. 🚨 pic.twitter.com/1iJr97nO9J

That’s huge for Canelo and the sport of boxing.

On such a popular weekend in September for Mexicans and general sports fans, it shows you how powerful boxing is when its big stars compete.

Berlanga is unbeaten with a knockout punch and brings his Puerto Rican heritage against Mexico’s Alvarez too, which is always a big selling point with the two country’s rivalry in boxing.
