Mexican middleweight Saul 'Canelo' Alvarez has been banned for six
months after failing two drugs tests earlier this year.
The Mexican middleweight, 27, said eating
contaminated meat was the reason he tested positive for clenbuterol on 17 and
20 February.
He was forced
to withdraw from a world middleweight title rematch against
Gennady Golovkin after their first bout in September ended
in a draw.
Alvarez's ban has been backdated, so he will
be free to fight from 17 August.Golden Boy Promotions said Alvarez "looks
forward to returning to the ring in September for Mexican Independence Day
weekend".
