Canelo set up his unification clash with Saunders by destroying Avni Yildirim in three brutal rounds earlier this morning.
And Saunders decided to mark the official announcement by wearing an apron with a fake penis and testicles attached as he went live on Instagram.
He said: “Alright people, I just wanted to say a big thank you to Canelo, I’m such a big fan.
“I’ve been training a long time for this, I’ve been waiting a long, long time. It’s been frustrating waiting, but thank you sir for this opportunity.
“I’m only just gonna come, pick my money up and go home, you know. It’s one of them. It’s gonna be good, it’s gonna be very good.
“I just wanna thank everybody this morning watching this, I’m just proud to be alive. I’m so happy to even be here taking part in this event.
“To take part in this event, obviously I’m not gonna win, just gonna go there, just turn up looking at the numbers.”
Canelo reacted a lot more reservedly after the news of his bout was confirmed – and he promised that Saunders’ antics would not affect him.

How the two stars shape up head-to-head
The legend, 30, said: “I want everybody. Saunders is the WBO champion and I want to unify.
“Saunders will try to get under my skin, people talk but I am a mature fighter who controls myself. Words are just bluffs.
“No one in Latin America has ever been undisputed at super-middle and no one has done that in the world.
“I want to make my own history, I don’t want to be like anyone else. I respect everyone.”
