Unbeaten Dmitry Bivol retained his WBA light-heavyweight world title with a unanimous decision over Saul “Canelo” Alvarez on May 8 in Las Vegas, handing the Mexican superstar just the second defeat of his career.

Alvarez made boxing history last November when he stopped Caleb Plant from becoming the first man to unite all four super-middleweight world title belts. But there would be no late heroics against Bivol, who pressured Alvarez relentlessly throughout the bout and never appeared to be seriously hurt by the Mexican, who struggled to get past Bivol’s guard.#boxing #Alvarez #Bivol
