Golden Boy Promotions President Oscar De La Hoya is not ruling out the possibility of Saul 'Canelo' Alvarez (46-1-1, 32KOs) taking a fight at the junior middleweight limit of 154-pounds.

Canelo captured the WBC middleweight title last November with a twelve round unanimous decision over Miguel Cotto.

The fight with Cotto took place at 155-pounds, only one pound above the junior middleweight division. It was Canelo's fourth fight in a row at 155.

Canelo is going to return on May 7th as part of Cinco De Mayo weekend.

Several names are being considered for Canelo's next fight. De La Hoya won't name any names and says Canelo is open to fighting several different opponents, who are at 154 and 160.

"There are many [possible] opponents. I don't want to say any names, because negotiations today are very delicate. When someone begins to mention names, some of them think 'Canelo wants to fight me and I'm going to demand more money', so I will not say mention any names, but we will talk and decide whether to fight at 160 pounds or 154," said De La Hoya to ESPN Deportes.

Golden Boy Vice President Eric Gomez agrees that Canelo can still make the junior middleweight limit.

"On the day of the weigh-in [for the Cotto fight], he ingested water, he ate something. [The weight of his next fight] depends on how he feels because his body is still growing," Gómez said.
