DAZN, the global sports streaming service, concludes a month featuring no less than six big cards of live boxing with the sport's biggest star making his first defence of his super-middleweight titles.
Saul 'Canelo' Alvarez faces off with mandatory challenger Avni Yildirim to finish a tremendous run of events on DAZN including Josh Warrington vs. Mauricio Lara, David Avanesyan vs. Josh Kelly, JoJo Diaz Jr. vs. Shavkatdzhon Rakhimov, Joseph Parker vs. Junior Fa and more.
Canelo, the current WBA (Super), WBC and The Ring champ at 168lb, could be on course to unify the division as long as he doesn't slip up against his Turkish adversary at the end of the month.
Here's everything you need to know about the pound-for-pound superstar's latest in-ring outing.
The Canelo Alvarez vs. Avni Yildirim fight card takes place on Saturday, Feb. 27 and kicks off at 20:00 local time on the US East coast, or 1am Sunday morning in the UK on Greenwich Mean Time. Main event ringwalks, as always, depend on how long the undercard runs, but the ballpark estimate is around 11pm EST/4am GMT.
The Feb. 27 card will stream live on DAZN in over 200 countries across the globe. You can sign up for a subscription here for as little as just £1.99 per month, depending on your location. If you are in Argentina, Chile and Colombia you must download from the Apple App Store or Android Google Play store.
