Saul Alvarez looked sad after his loss to Dmitry Bivol at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada.
By unanimous decision, the judges awarded the victory to the Russian, who retained the World Boxing Association light heavyweight belt.
Canelo's words didn't surpass the ring. Bivol won with authority, causing the second loss of Canelo's boxing career.
However, the Mexican fighter was captured inside one of the casinos playing Blackjack.
The reports of those who witnessed Saul Alvarez indicated Canelo was betting high stakes at the casino.
According to the rules, the entrance fee to bet was around $10,000.
Serious, concentrated, with a green and white checkered sweater, Canelo had a red sore face from the fight as the images show.
Once he finished healing his sorrows for the defeat, Canelo attended his fans and was captured taking pictures and mingling with them in the corridors of the casino he attended.
Experts and people close to Saul Alvarez say that he is already thinking about a rematch against Russian Dmitry Bivol.
Saul Alvarez had agreed to the third fight against Gennady Golovkin for September, all this before the result of this past May 7 was known.
By losing the light heavyweight belt, Canelo could now put a pause to that trilogy against GGG and look for a new opportunity to defeat Bivol and win a title in a division that is not the usual one for Canelo.
