The event will be produced and distributed live by Showtime PPV.

Tickets for “HONOR & GLORY: Canelo vs. Lara” are available at participating theater box offices and online at www.FathomEvents.com. For a complete list of theater locations and prices, visit the Fathom Events website (theaters and participants are subject to change). The event will be broadcast to nearly 200 select movie theaters across the country through Fathom’s Digital Broadcast Network.

"I'm expecting one of the toughest fights of my career on July 12,” said Canelo Alvarez. “So knowing that I'll have my fans cheering me on, not just in the arena but in movie theaters throughout the country, has me even more motivated to beat Erislandy Lara and give the fans a fight to remember.”

"This is the fight that the fans and I demanded and now they will get to see it on a grand scale,” said Lara. “There is no better situation in boxing then to see two hungry fighters willing to put everything on the line for the honor and glory of their fans. I'll be sending a strong message to the world come July 12th, that you can count on!"

Guadalajara, Jalisco, Mexico’s Canelo Alvarez (43-1-1, 31 KOs) is one of the most compelling figures in the fight game today. A former world champion and still just 23-years-old, Canelo has captivated fans around the world with his exciting fighting style and charisma in and out of the ring. A professional since 2005, Canelo won the WBC Junior Middleweight Title in 2011 and successfully defended it five times before unifying the championship with a 2013 victory over Austin Trout. A mega-fight with Mayweather followed five months later. Although he lost a hard-fought decision to the pound-for-pound king last September, Canelo got back on track in March with a 10th round-technical knockout win over Alfredo Angulo.

Slick southpaw Erislandy “The American Dream” Lara (19-1-2, 12 KOs) graduated from the renowned Cuban amateur boxing program and migrated to the United States to pursue a professional boxing career. As a young contender on the rise, Lara suffered a controversial decision loss to Paul Williams in 2011. Since then, he has done his best to take it out of the judges’ hands by knocking out Ronald Hearns and Angulo, with the latter victory earning him the WBA Junior Middleweight World Championship. In his most recent bout, Lara won a 12-round unanimous decision over Trout on Dec. 7, 2013, and now the 31-year-old, who makes his home in Houston, will attempt to give Canelo a boxing lesson on July 12.

“Fight fans will not want to miss this epic bout between Canelo Alvarez and Erislandy Lara,” said John Rubey, CEO of Fathom Events. “Seeing this event on the big screen will be as close as you can get to a ring-side experience!”

Canelo Alvarez vs Erislandy Lara focused on July 12 on Showtime PPV mulls Miguel Cotto

 Although Saul Alvarez's focus is on his July 12 clash with Erislandy Lara at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, the 23-year-old Mexican junior middleweight understands the magnitude of a potential bout with Puerto Rican, four-division titlewinner Miguel Cotto.



"Without a doubt, that's a huge fight with the fact that he's from Puerto Rico," said Alvarez, from his training facility in San Diego on Thursday. "That would be one for the history books for the boxing game alone."

Alvarez's sentiment comes on the heels of that from Golden Boy Promotions President Oscar De la Hoya, who said Cotto "looked sensational" during his 10th-round technical knockout of Sergio Martinez on June 7 for THE RING and WBC middleweight championships and that he would like to match Cotto against Alvarez (43-1-1, 31 knockouts) should the latter defeat Lara (19-1-2, 12 KOs), 31, of Cuba.

"Definitely, without a doubt, that's something that people want to see," said Alvarez of Cotto, who dropped the southpaw Martinez three times in the first round and once more in the ninth.

"So if that were to happen, well, definitely, that would be a huge fight. But at the moment, I've got an obligation pending at the moment and that's Erislandy Lara and that's my primary focus."

Cotto had fought at junior middleweight since 2010, moving up to a catchweight of 159 pounds for the first time to become the first Puerto Rican fighter to win a fourth title in as many weight classes.

"I would love to work with Cotto Promotions on a possible 'Canelo'-Cotto fight," De la Hoya told RingTV.com after Cotto-Martinez. "July 12 is very important toward possibly seeing the pugilistic rivalry between Mexico and Puerto Rico once again. It would be Salvador [Sanchez] vs. [Wilfredo] Gomez, [Julio Cesar] Chavez Sr. vs [Edwin] Rosario, De la Hoya vs. [Felix] Trinidad. Huge!"

Prior to facing Martinez, Cotto looked sharp and powerful stopping Delvin Rodriguez in an October victory to bounce back from consecutive majority and unanimous decision losses to Floyd Mayweather Jr. and Austin Trout in May and December 2012, respectively.

In November, Cotto turned down a deal worth in excess of $10 million to face Alvarez. So instead, Alvarez's next fight was a 10th-round stoppage of Alfredo Angulo in March that helped him rebound from a majority decision loss to Mayweather last September.

Before Mayweather, Alvarez unanimously decisioned the previously unbeaten Trout, flooring him in the seventh round of their bout in April 2013 that drew nearly 40,000 to the Alamodome in San Antonio.

An Alvarez-Cotto bout could be a monster event given Alvarez's loss to Mayweather grossed a record $150 million and Cotto is widely considered the most lucrative pay-per-view attraction in boxing behind Mayweather and Manny Pacquiao.

"I understand the questions about Cotto because, obviously, that's boxing. In this sport, I know that's the name of the game," said Alvarez. "Obviously some people were surprised that I took the fight with Lara and when I was successful at getting it and the fight comes, it's always about future fights."

Lara's past two wins were a 10th-round knockout of Angulo, during which Lara was floored once each in the fourth and ninth rounds last June, and a unanimous decision over Trout, whom he dropped in the 11th round in December.

"My primary focus right now is Erislandy Lara," said Alvarez. "That's my next fight on July 12 and I'm going to demonstrate my focus then."
