Frank Warren confirms turning down Canelo Alvarez fight for his fighter

In a recent interview with @BoxNation_TV, promoter Frank Warren revealed he turned down a big-money offer for Hamzah Sheeraz to fight Canelo Álvarez earlier this year. Warren said, “We were offered the Canelo fight early this year, but I said no, not yet. It was really good money. An offer was made.”

Sheeraz, now 24 with an impressive record of 21-0, recently defeated Tyler Denny by TKO, continuing his rise as a top middleweight contender. Meanwhile, Canelo, one of boxing’s biggest stars, holds a record of 61-2-2 and recently won against Edgar Berlanga. Warren emphasized that while Sheeraz has the talent, it's not the right time to face someone of Canelo's caliber—but the matchup could happen in the future.

Will we ever see this blockbuster fight?
