[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

The World Boxing Association (WBA) Championships Committee has issued a ruling that Saul "Canelo" Alvarez will be recognized as WBA champion at middleweight and super middleweight. Canelo won the WBA and WBC middleweight titles in September 2018, when he defeated Gennady Golovkin by majority decision, and he will defend the titles on May 4th in a unification against Daniel Jacobs, the champion of the International Boxing Federation (IBF). The bout will take place at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.
