After all the drama of their previous bouts, Gennady and Canelo Alvarez are finally set to face off in a trio bout.
This third bout will end five years of drama between them, and they will be fighting at super-middleweight.
Canelo Avarez takes on Gennady Glovkin for the third time. Here's how they stack up
Gennady and Saul "Canelo" Alvarez are fighting for the THIRD time Saturday night
In 2017, the pair started their rivalry. Their first fight ended in a split draw. Most spectators believed Golovkin was the winner.
They had a rematch which Alvarez won by majority vote a year later.
It was a close fight. Alvarez has since moved up a weight and is now the undisputed champion at super middleweight.
Golovkin has now unified the middleweight titles again. However, he will finally get a third chance at Alvarez later in the year, even though he is 40 years old.
However, he'll feel buoyed by Dmitry Bivol's loss to him in Mexico and will need to return down to fight 'GGG.
