Things are now becoming more clear on Canelo vs Jake Paul as boxing star Alvarez looks set to give him a big opportunity.
Paul who is a boxing promoter of fighters like Amanda Serrano and others, is now a professional boxer himself a number of years.
Per Mike Coppinger of ESPN on X a short time ago:
“Canelo Alvarez and Jake Paul are in the process of finalizing a deal for a May 3 cruiserweight fight at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, sources told ESPN. The bout will take place at the 200-pound limit (Canelo is a champion at 168 pounds). It’s slated to be streamed on Netflix.”
Netflix obviously saw the massive numbers Paul vs Mike Tyson did last year.
The numbers tuning in wishing to see Canelo knock Paul out will be even bigger and will surely break the internet.
Paul will have a big weight advantage on Canelo per the above.
