Canelo Alvarez jumped into his trainer's arms while Billy Joe Saunders slumped in his corner with a towel draped over his head. The wildly popular Mexican fighter added another super middleweight title belt in front of a huge crowd in another fight in Texas. Not only did Saunders have his first loss as a pro, the English fighter might have a broken eye socket. Alvarez (56-1-2, 38 knockouts) added Saunders' WBO belt to his WBA and WBC straps in his third fight in less than five months, and second in Texas. "I knew the fight was going to develop around the eighth round," Alvarez, whose only defeat was to Floyd Mayweather Jr. in 2013, said through an interpreter.
