Canelo Alvarez vs Christian Mbilli: Time, ring walks for title fight

Looking to reclaim his long-held WBC super middleweight title, Canelo Alvarez is back on Oct. 31 challenging recently crowned champion Christian Mbilli in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.

Alvarez had been the undisputed super middleweight champion for the better part of four years until Terence Crawford moved up two weight classes to hand him a unanimous decision loss last September. Soon after, Alvarez had elbow surgery, but in his return targeted the unbeaten champion Mbilli, who'll defend his WBC title for the first time.

Mbilli was elevated from interim champion after Crawford's retirement, having narrowly retained his interim belt with a split decision draw against Lester Martinez on the Alvarez vs. Crawford undercard.

Here's what to know ahead of the opening bell from Riyadh.
