Canelo Alvarez Preview
Alvarez has been nearly unbeatable his career (50-1-2, 34 KOs) with his only loss coming against Floyd Mayweather. He drew once against GGG in a fight that many thought Golovkin should have won and then got a decision against him in their rematch. Again, one that many boxing experts contested. Regardless, Canelo is one of boxing biggest stars, and nearly all his fights are exciting to watch.
Rocky Fielding Preview
Fielding (27-1, 15 KOs) is the champion in this bout. As mentioned above, he’s a firm underdog and has only been fighting professionally for eight years (Canelo has been fighting professionally since he was 15 years old). He’s also three years older than Alvarez at age 31. His only loss came against fellow Brit Callum Smith. After that defeat, he rebuilt his career and won a world title against Tyron Zeuge by a TKO in the fifth round.
Canelo Alvarez vs. Rocky Fielding – Who Will Win?
Fielding does seem dangerous in this fight. He has a size and weight advantage over Alvarez. He also has nothing to lose. Still, he lacks the pedigree of a champion and doesn’t have any notable wins. He’s is far less experienced than Canelo, and that’s clearly reflected in the odds. However, Canelo is obviously the more talented fighter. It’s also highly unlikely his team would have selected Fielding if they were not sure that he could beat him.
As long as he isn’t underestimating his opponent or lacking training – then this should be easy for Alvarez. Even at -1520, there still may be value to be had on Alvarez on the moneyline. He could easily end this fight quickly, and it’s nearly impossible to see him losing a decision to Fielding.
Canelo Alvarez vs. Rocky Fielding – How Many Rounds Will It Go?
How long this fight goes ultimately comes down to how aggressive Alvarez is early in this fight. It’s clear the oddsmakers do not expect it to go the distance with the number of rounds at 7.5. However, it will cost you quite a bit to bet on the under at -160. There is a better than average chance this one Alvarez takes things a bit slower from an offensive perspective. He just signed his new deal and may opt to take it a bit slower with his aggression in the early rounds. The oddsmakers may be underestimating his tentativeness in this fight, especially with an opponent that has a size advantage.I like the value on over 7.5 rounds at +135.
