Episode Description
Saul Canelo Alvarez and Gennady Golovkin will lock horns for the third time on September 17th for the undisputed super middleweight championship.
It will form a conclusion to a fierce rivalry in which two high-profiled fights prior have had fans debating and arguing ever since. The first resulted in a highly controversial draw in which many felt Golovkin (GGG) was the deserved victor. And the second allowed Canelo to redeem himself with an aggressive, brave display to win on points - despite protests yet again from some sections of the boxing public.
Canelo has since gone onto become boxing's biggest superstar, with sensational wins over title-holders in higher weights to become a 4-weight world champion. Golovkin himself bounced back to become a unified champion at Middleweight once again.
Now the two meet for the final time to complete a trilogy on a rivalry that's captivated fans for the better part of a decade.
