We're in the home stretch of 2026 with just a few months left in the year. But there's still plenty of good fights on the horizon for boxing fans. 

Rising heavyweight contender Moses Itauma made his return on Aug. 29 when he took on former title challenger Filip Hrgovic in London. At just 21, many were predicting Itauma to become the new face of the heavyweight division sooner rather than later, but a shocking upset loss to Hrgovic came when Itauma gassed out, costing Itauma the chance to win the IBF title and become world champion for the first time in his career.

All eyes head to Las Vegas on Sept. 12 for an epic showdown under the Zuffa Boxing banner when WBC welterweight champion Ryan Garcia looks to defend his title against Conor Benn in an epic main event. Also on that card, Jai Opetaia defends his Zuffa cruiserweight title against WBC champion Noel Mikaelian.

Then on Halloween, Canelo Alvarez makes his return to the ring for the first time in over a year when he takes on Christian Mbili for the WBC super middleweight title in Saudi Arabia.

Take a look at the calendar for 2026 below.
