Canelo Alvarez’s fight against Christian Mbilli now has a new official date in October. Alvarez said the bout is set for October 31, shifting the timeline for one of the more closely watched boxing matchups on the schedule.
The contest had originally been planned for September 12 in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. That date is no longer in place, with the event now moving later into the fall after the postponement.
News of the update came directly from Alvarez during an appearance with Ariel Helwani. While the available details are limited, the key development is that the Canelo Alvarez vs Christian Mbilli fight is back on the calendar with a confirmed new date.
For boxing fans, the change means a longer wait, but also clarity after uncertainty around the original September booking. Attention will now turn to how the rescheduled October 31 event takes shape as preparations continue for Alvarez and Mbilli.
