Before that, Alvarez switches sports as he goes to his second love as he competes in the Icons Series golf event on Thursday and Friday at Liberty National Golf Club in Jersey City, NJ.
Alvarez took up golf in 2019 and fell in love with it immediately. He's become just as obsessed with golf as he is with the sweet science. After his win in November over Caleb Plant to become the first undisputed super-middleweight champion, he woke up the following morning and played golf at Shadow Creek Golf Course in Las Vegas.
Now, Alvarez will compete on Team ROW with 11 other active and former athletes against Team USA in three sessions each day with three 10-hole match play sessions per day and the event finishing up in head-to-head singles matches. How will Alvarez fare?

What to expect from the Icons Series
According to golf.com, Icons Series is an event in which "we’re used to sporting figures and celebs competing in pro-ams under stroke play. Now, we’ll see them competing as teammates in a match-play format, in front of fans and cameras on a playing field that is much different from the ones they’ve dominated for years. The nerves alone should be enough of reason to tune in."
