The Mexican will expose this Saturday the four main belts of the super middleweights in the third fight against the Kazakh that will close one of the essential rivalries in modern boxing.
Canelo Alvarez will return to train Gennady Golovkin
This Saturday, September 17, at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, United States, in a fight that will complete the trilogy between the two and in which the man from Guadalajara will expose his nickname of undisputed champion of the super middleweights.
Canelo will face the 40-year-old Kazakh in a twelve-round fight in which he will expose the four main belts of the division (International Boxing Federation, World Boxing Council, World Boxing Association, and World Boxing Organization) that he obtained in November 2021 when he became the first Latino boxer to achieve such a milestone.
The fight can be seen live on ESPN 2 for both Argentina, Mexico, and the rest of Latin America in the following signals:
What time does Canelo Alvarez vs. fight? Gennady Golovkin, according to each country.
The story behind Canelo Alvarez's positive doping
The first fight between the two was in 2017 and ended in controversy after the judges decreed a draw. However, a year later, there was revenge. Although it was initially going to be in May, it was postponed to September because Canelo was suspended for six months for taking clenbuterol for eating contaminated meat. Finally, the Mexican boxer won by majority decision with cards that showed 115-113, 114-114, and 115-113.
In his last presentation in a ring, the Mexican was seen surpassed as had rarely happened. It is that Canelo went up to light heavyweight to face Dmitry Bivol for the WBA belt and was widely beaten by the Russian, who made the difference in kilos weight and won by unanimous decision. Now, the man from Guadalajara will seek to redeem himself from that poor image.
