Canelo Alvarez's promoter Eddie Hearn has once again stated the Mexican is open to a fight with Oleksandr Usyk.
Alvarez has not fought since retaining his 168lb titles with a trilogy win over Gennady Golovkin last year, but is expected to be making a return in May. The Mexican wants to continue taking the biggest challenges, which includes a revenge bid against Dmitry Bivol who he lost to when stepping up to 175lb in May last year.
In previous conversations, Alvarez has even teased a move one higher to cruiserweight with a fight against current heavyweight Usyk seen as the biggest to make it at 200lb. And in a fresh update on Canelo's next career move, Matchroom Boxing's Hearn has claimed he joked with Alvarez about beating Usyk after he recently scored a rematch win over Anthony Joshua.
