Since the legendary Mexican fighter Efren Torres, nobody had been able to gather so many people in a boxing championship fight, which was made possible by Saul "Canelo" Alvarez, who is still breaking all kinds of records.
The champion gathered 14 thousand souls last weekend at the modern VFG Arena, in Jalisco, Mexico.
In his first defense "Canelo" proved he is about to reach his maximum level. Ryan Rhodes could not show his complete weapons against the strategy, speed and strength of the twenty-year old champion.
Also, Saul Alvarez had 24 rating points (1.5 million people per point) with spikes of 26, something reachable only by the Mexican soap operas in this country.
