JAKARTA - Saul 'Canelo' Alvarez looked disappointed after losing to Dmitry Bivol at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada last weekend.
By unanimous decision, the judges awarded the Russian boxer the victory, who retained the light heavyweight belt of the World Boxing Association.
Canelo boasted before fighting Bivol that he didn't go beyond the ring. Bivol won unanimously and led to the second defeat of Canelo's boxing career.
However, after the duel, the Mexican boxer was caught on camera inside one of the casinos playing Blackjack.

Reports from those who saw, as quoted by Marca, May 12, indicated Canelo gambled with large sums of money at the casino.
According to the rules, the entry fee for betting is around 10 thousand US dollars (IDR 146 million).
Serious and focused wearing a green and white plaid sweater, Canelo's face looks red as a result of his fight with Bivol.
As soon as he finished healing his grief over the loss, Canelo met his fans and was caught on camera taking pictures and mingling with them in the corridors of the casino he attended.

Experts and people close to Canelo say he is already thinking about a rematch against Russia Bivol.
Canelo has actually agreed to a third bout against Gennady Golovkin which will take place in September. However, all of that was before the results of the duel against Bivol on 7 May were known.
With the loss of his light heavyweight belt, Canelo's trilogy fight plans against GGG could potentially be postponed.
