"My plan now is to come back in May. I'm going to resume training in January and assess my health.

I want to come back in May with an intermediate fight to see my condition. And then a rematch with Bivol in September. This is the only thing I want now in my career.

Let's see how Benavidez's fight with Plant ends. A very competitive match. I think Benavides will win. But I'm focused on the rematch with Bivol," ESPN quoted Alvarez as saying.
