Canelo Alvarez's return set for September world title fight in Saudi Arabia

Canelo Alvarez is set to return to the ring in September for a WBC super middleweight world title fight in Saudi Arabia, challenging Christian Mbilli. Alvarez has been out of action since losing his undisputed 168-pound championship to Terence Crawford last September, and subsequently underwent arthroscopic surgery on his left elbow in October. The fight represents Alvarez's bid to become a two-time super middleweight champion, with Crawford having vacated all belts after retiring following their bout.
