Unbeaten Mayweather too strong for Alvarez

Floyd Mayweather claimed the WBC light middleweight and WBA super world light middleweight titles on Saturday night, producing a dominant display to get past Saul Alvarez on a 12-round majority decision in Las Vegas.

Mayweather, 36, bossed proceedings against the Mexican 13 years his junior, and claimed a convincing victory - despite one judge scoring the unification bout even - to extend his unbeaten professional record to 45 fights.
