Saul Alvarez insists he is now a better fighter as he prepares to take on Alfredo Angulo in Las Vegas on March 8.
The former WBC light-middleweight world champion (42-1-1 30KOs) - still just 23 years of age - suffered the first defeat of his career last time out, dropping a majority decision to Floyd Mayweather in Las Vegas in September.
But the manner of that loss, even though one judge somehow called it 114-114, would have been worrying for Alvarez.
He was expected to give Mayweather a stern test but in the end was taken to school by the world's number one pound-for-pound fighter.
However, he will start as a firm favourite against 31-year-old Angulo (22-3 18KOs) as he bids to get his career back on track.

Canelo's true colors are starting to show. I called this man a warrior, I take it back. His boxing skills were put on display against arguably the best boxer in our era, Floyd Mayweather. He failed. Simple and plain. Instead of taking the loss as a lesson to improve, he down played Mayweather's win. He obviously has alot to learn about being a man as well.
