Saul 'Canelo' Alvarez added the WBO super-middleweight belt to his burgeoning collection, defeating Billy Joe Saunders in front of a record-breaking 73,126 crowd inside Texas' AT&T Stadium.
The attendance figure set an all-time record for an indoor US boxing event -- breaking the previous record set in 1978 when Muhammad Ali beat Leon Spinks in front of 63,352 at the Louisiana Superdome -- and marked the largest crowd at a sporting event since the pandemic began. Alvarez dominated the opening seven rounds, leading on all three judges' scorecards, before a brutal uppercut in the eighth caused a deep cut under Saunders' right eye and left the Briton unable to come out for the ninth round.
