WBC, WBA middleweight champion Canelo Alvarez (50-1-2, 34 KOs) just signed the most lucrative deal in all of sports, but WBA super middleweight champion Rocky Fielding (27-1, 15 KOs) plans to send Canelo’s stock crashing down on December 15 in Madison Square Garden.

“I went to Germany and fought for the world title,” said Rocky. “People wrote me off and didn’t give me a chance. But I won the world title and it only took me five rounds. I worked my whole life to be on the biggest stages, and now I’m fighting the biggest name in the sport at Madison Square Garden. It is every fighter’s dream. I know Canelo is an elite fighter, but I’m going in there as a champion to defend my title and walk away with the victory.”

Fielding’s trainer Janie Moore added, “[Rocky] has all the attributes to give Canelo problems. Canelo has never fought at super middleweight and he’s never fought anyone with the size that Rocky Fielding has. Rocky has come a long way. He has had setbacks, but they have taken him to where he is today. We will walk away with the victory on December 15.”
