Canelo & Charlo’s Los Angeles Press Conference
The two undisputed champions Canelo Alvarez and Jermell Charlo held their second presser, as part of their media tour, at The Beverly Hilton, The Wilshire Garden, Los Angeles.
They kicked off their first press tour from the Palladium Times Square, New York City, which was very cordial, as both fighters shared mutual respect for each other.
Canelo vowed to prove his doubters wrong, as concerns were raised over his last performance against John Ryder following his wrist surgery.

Meanwhile, Charlo insisted on turning ‘non-believers into believers’ in an attempt to pull off a shock as he jumps up two weight divisions.
Alvarez will defend his 168-pound titles for the third time in his career on September 30th, 2023. Meanwhile, Charlo will attempt to create history by becoming undisputed in two divisions like Terence Crawford.
With that being said, here were the key quotes.
