Canelo Alvarez returned to the ring on Saturday night, taking on the significantly taller and bigger Callen Smith to unify the WBA, WBC and Ring middleweight titles. No knockdowns were landed, but it was a great performance nonetheless as Canelo Alvarez took majority of the rounds, just constantly battering Smith throughout the fight.

Smith was tough and showed heart, surviving big shots and still never being knocked down in his career. In the end though, he lost a pretty wide decision.

Watch highlights of the bout below, along with a snippet from our play-by-play of the contest.

Round 12 – Pair of punches by Canelo send Smith back. Uppercut again by Canelo as he looks for the knockout. Jab and right hand by Canelo. Smith with his own combination and he’s showing heart but he is getting whooped. Chopping right hand by Alvarez. Three-punch combo by Canelo against the ropes. Smith just smiles and laughs. Smith ties up and the crowd boos haha. Canelo wails on Smith some more. Under a minute to go. Looks like Smith will go the distance but he’s lost his title for sure. 120-108 Canelo.

Official result: Canelo Alvarez def. Callum Smith by unanimous decision (119-109, 119-109, 117-111) to become the WBA and WBC super-middleweight champion
