Golovkin vs Canelo will light up Las Vegas, but will tonight’s fight top these Vegas spectaculars?

For many millions of fans, and for a large amount of fighting men, Las Vegas is THE place to fight, to get it on, to rumble. The Mecca of boxing, Vegas and its famous and celebrated Strip has seen too many Super Fights to list in just one article. But tonight, inside a packed and rocking T-Mobile Arena, the list of great Las Vegas Super Bouts will grow by one.

Millions of people are expecting a classic tonight, as middleweight king Gennady Golovkin defends his collection of belts against Saul Canelo Alvarez, and it seems only right that this fight – one that has been years in the making – is taking place in Vegas.

Cotto still hoping to land Golovkin Canelo winner for his final fight

09/16/2017 James Slater

Future Hall of Famer Miguel Cotto will be a very interested observer of tonight’s enormous middleweight showdown between Gennady Golovkin and Canelo Alvarez; mostly due to the fact that the Puerto Rican great wants to fight the winner, in his final fight, on December 2.

It has been pointed out how, for tonight’s winner to fight again less than three months on from tonight’s fight, an expected tough battle for both men, a very quick turnaround would be needed.

For the more than twenty-two million so-called “cord-cutting” adults in the United States, they have a viable option to watch one of the biggest and most anticipated boxing fights-of-the-year this Saturday between IBO/WBA/WBC/IBF middleweight belt holder Gennady “GGG” Golovkin (37-0, 33 KOs) and two-division and current lineal and Ring Magazine champion Saul “Canelo” Alvarez (49-1-1, 34 KOs) via Fite TV, which is powered by Flipps Media, Inc., a digital entertainment company, in association with Ring TV.

Canelo vs. Golovkin: Money and The Power

09/16/201709/16/2017 Chris Carlson

Much is at stake when Saul ‘Canelo’ Alvarez meets Gennady ‘GGG’ Golovkin this Saturday night live on HBO PPV from the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada. Middleweight supremacy and PPV king status is on the table for either man that walks away the victor. Will the power of Golovkin overwhelm the Mexican superstar? Or will Canelo’s overall skill & boxing politics be too much for Triple G to overcome?

For about two and half year’s this Canelo vs. GGG fight marinated on the back burner for Oscar De La Hoya. Oscar took the time to allow his fighter to build his body up to the middleweight division. Most of the boxing world grew impatient after Amir Khan led to Liam Smith as Canelo’s next opponent last September to make matters worse it was on PPV.

Canelo-Golovkin: Battle of Desire and Skill vs. Power and Will

09/16/201709/15/2017 Christopher Jason Young

Fight weekend is upon us and the anticipation from the diehard fans is at a fever pitch. This is truly a super fight between two elite combatants for the unified middleweight championship. Gennady Golovkin (37-0-33KO) vs. Canelo Alvarez (49-1-1-34KO).

A lot of boxing pundits and experts feel that this fight will live up to the hype and we are expect to see a battle like Hagler Vs Hearns. I attend to disagree with them just a little bit. I do feel that this fight will live up to the fight but not Hagler vs. Hearns. I see this fight more like Hagler vs. Mugabi.

De La Hoya on what will happen if Canelo loses to GGG: “So be it. As long as he gives us a great fight”

What do modern day legends Thomas Hearns, Meldrick Taylor, Joe Frazier and Pernell Whitaker all have in common? They all achieved greatness in defeat (or in the case of “Sweet Pea,” greatness was achieved by way of a draw).

Hearns went to war with Marvin Hagler, in losing elevating his own legend enormously. Taylor came within seconds (just two to be exact) of becoming the first man to defeat the greatest Mexican fighter of all-time, Julio Cesar Chavez. While Frazier pushed the greatest heavyweight in history to the point of seeing death.

Practically everyone is looking forward to a hugely exciting, perhaps explosive fight on Saturday night in Las Vegas, and trainer Abel Sanchez says the middleweight title fight showdown between his fighter Gennady Golovkin and challenger Canelo Alvarez had better be exciting, or else more and more boxing fans will find themselves drifting away to MMA.

The long wait for one of the biggest and most anticipated boxing fights-of-the-year, that was three years in the making, is finally here as IBO/WBA/WBC/IBF middleweight belt holder Gennady “GGG” Golovkin (37-0, 33 KOs) squares off against two-division, and current lineal and Ring Magazine champion Saul “Canelo” Alvarez (49-1-1, 34 KOs) on Saturday September 16th, to determine once and for all, who is the better fighter. Their bout will be televised on HBO pay-per-view from the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Can Golovkin – Canelo top even the epic Hagler-Hearns war!

09/15/201709/14/2017 James Slater

It remains the benchmark all big fights are measured by: it is the epic, never to be forgotten three-round war between all-time greats Marvelous Marvin Hagler and Thomas “Hitman” Hearns. And with expectations mighty high going into Saturday night’s huge middleweight showdown between Gennady Golovkin and Saul Canelo Alvarez – both warriors very possibly being all-time greats of the future – some people are even suggesting the 1985 classic could be topped in terms of mesmerising two-way action.
