This bout will mark the second fight for Canelo (63-2-2, 39 KOs) in his four-fight deal with Riyadh Season and the first in his second reign as undisputed champion following his win over William Scull.

Should Crawford (41-0, 31 KOs) be victorious, he will become only the second fighter in the four-belt era to become undisputed in three weight classes. This unique feat was first achieved by the GWOAT, Claressa Shields. She defeated Danielle Perkins to obtain the vacant IBF and WBO heavyweight titles.
