The undisputed champions square off with a ton at stake on Saturday night
During a calendar year already littered with pay-per-view fights of the must-see variety, Saturday's undisputed clash between four-belt super middleweight champion Canelo Alvarez and undisputed 154-pound king Jermell Charlo stands out in its own way.
