Saul Alvarez takes on WBA Super Welterweight Champion Erislandy Lara in a non-title catchweight bout at 155 pounds. Lara starts off strong, schooling Alvarez for portions of the first several rounds; however, Alvarez slows him down with a body assault over the next several. Alvarez produces a cut over Lara's right eye after going after him in the seventh round and continues his attack through the middle rounds, forcing a photo finish down the stretch. After twelve rounds, Alvares ekes out a split decision win in a fight that appears too close to call.
