Canelo Alvarez vs. Jake Paul is the fight nobody expected. It’s also the fight nobody asked for.
According to a report from Mike Coppinger of ESPN, Alvarez and ‘The Problem Child’ are finalizing a deal for a cruiserweight fight expected to go down on May 3 at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas. The fight will reportedly air live on Netflix, the same streaming service that brought us Paul’s lackluster clash with former heavyweight king ‘Iron’ Mike Tyson in November.
Paul defeated Tyson via unanimous decision after eight rounds of glorified sparring.
