September 14th, 2013. Known as “The One”, two undefeated fighters clashed on this day; Floyd Mayweather Jr. and Canelo Alvarez in a Light Middleweight Championship Superfight contested at a 152 pound catchweight,
Prefight records; Mayweather 44(26)-0, Alvarez 42(30)-0-1.
This is one of the most anticipated fights of 2013, with tickets sold out within 24 hours. And for the first time in history, the WBC announced that it would award the winner with a special belt made with large 24K gold.
This superfight broke the record for producing the single largest gross gate ($20,003,150) in Nevada boxing history, beating the previous record of $18,419,200 also set by Floyd Mayweather Jr back in 2007 when he won a hard fought SD against Oscar De La Hoya.
Additionally, it also set the all time record for the highest grossing PPV fight of all time; generating $150 million in revenue via 2.2 million buys.
It is also interesting to note that the last time an undefeated World Welterweight Champion takes on an undefeated World Junior Middleweight Champion was 13 years ago in March 2000; when Puerto Rican legend Felix “Tito” Trinidad takes on “The American Dream” David Reid with Reid’s WBA Super Welterweight Championship on the line. Trinidad and Reid had records of 36(30)-0 & 14(7)-0 going into the fight. Tito won via UD to become World Champion in 2 weight divisions.
Going into the fight, Canelo had a few noteworthy wins; Kermit Cintron, Carlos Baldomir, Shane Mosley, Josesito Lopez, Lovemore N'dou, Matthew Hatton & Austin Trout.
On the other hand, the decorated veteran Mayweather had notable victories over Arturo Gatti, DeMarcus Corley, Jesús Chávez, Angel Manfredy, Carlos Hernandez, Genaro Hernandez, Emmanuel Augustus, Sharmba Mitchell, Phillip N'dou, Gregorio Vargas, Victor Ortiz, Shane Mosley, Carlos Baldomir, Zab Judah, Jose Luis Castillo (2x), Diego Corrales, Ricky Hatton, Oscar De La Hoya, Juan Manuel Marquez, Robert Guerrero, Miguel Cotto.
The bout was fairly competitive for the first four rounds but as it progresses into the mid point, Floyd’s defensive and counter punching abilities takes over the fight as he schooled Alvarez with jabs, combination punching and his trademark counter right hands while displaying amazing ring generalship. Canelo had no answers against one of boxing’s greatest defensive fighters. While Canelo rallied in the final round, It was not nearly enough to make a difference.
By Compubox Punchstats, Mayweather landed nearly 100 more jabs, 20 more power punches. Mayweather also more than doubled Canelo’s accuracy rate at 46% over 22%.
Hope you guys enjoy this highlight of one of Mayweather’s greatest performances!
