Canelo Alvarez told his fans at Friday’s weigh-in that he’ll be looking to knock out Gennadiy Golovkin from the first round so that he carries out his goal of stopping him within 12 rounds in their trilogy fight at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.
Undisputed super middleweight champion Canelo Alvarez weighed in at 167.4 pounds for his trilogy fight against Gennadiy Golovkin on Saturday night at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas & live on DAZN.
It was five years ago today when once respectful, now seemingly bitter rivals Gennady Golovkin and Canelo Alvarez embarked on their rivalry.
Judging by the many pundits and plugged in boxing fans predictions a rubber stamp has already been stamped on the outcome for the trilogy between Canelo Alvarez vs.
Canelo Alvarez says he’s ready to end his five-year rivalry with Gennadiy Golovkin by knocking him out on Saturday night in their trilogy bout on DAZN pay-per-view.
Canelo Alvarez says he still views himself as the best fighter in boxing despite his recent loss to Dmitry Bivol. Canelo (57-2-2, 39 KOs) states that no one is doing the things that he’s doing, fighting the best.
Eddie Hearn thinks it would be a good idea for Canelo Alvarez to be careful with his approach to his fight against Gennadiy Golovkin on Saturday.
Canelo Alvarez already has his eye on a rematch with Dmitry Bivol after his trilogy fight this Saturday against Gennadiy Golovkin.
Some boxing rivalries take a heck of a long time to get settled. This Saturday’s supposed finale (maybe it will prove to be so, maybe not) between Gennady Golovkin and Canelo Alvarez hasn’t taken as long as some others took to get done – Sugar Ray Leonard and Thomas Hearns, for example, took eight long years to settle who was the better fighter; or maybe you feel they never actually managed it, and are “one and one,” as Leonard said after the draw of a rematch) – yet GGG feels it has taken too long all the same.
Gennadiy Golovkin surprisingly says he didn’t bother to watch Canelo Alvarez’s recent fight against Dmitry Bivol.
It’s a little strange that Golovkin (42-1-1, 37 KOs) wouldn’t bother to take the time to watch Canelo’s recent loss to WBA light heavyweight champion Bivol (21-0, 10 KOs) on May 7th, considering the Russian fighter revealed some huge flaws in Alvarez’s game.
