Canelo Alvarez and Gennady Golovkin renew rivalries to complete a trilogy fight series spanning five years.
The pair went to war in 2017 and 2018. The first encounter ended in a split decision draw, while the second showdown went to Canelo by majority decision.
The closeness of the fights and pedigree of the fighters themselves saw massive interest whip up around the fights, and they will hope to attract a similarly huge audience for their third duel.
For only the second time in his 61-fight career, Canelo enters this fight off the back of a defeat. The Mexican megastar stepped up to light-middleweight but was toppled by Dmitry Bivol by unanimous decision. Alvarez started his professional career in 2005 but his only other defeat came against Floyd Mayweather in 2013.
GGG has defeated every single opponent in his professional boxing career other than Canelo, who blotched GGG’s record with a draw and a defeat.
Fans will be licking their lips at the prospect of these two supreme boxers going toe to toe once again with a host of belts on the line.
