Triple G is gone; is Canelo next?

BOXER SHORTS

THE third meeting between Kazakhstan's Gennady 'Triple G' Golovkin and Mexico's Saul 'Canelo' Alvarez was a tough sell.

Golovkin-Alvarez part 3 should have taken place in 2019 or shortly after their classic September 2018 rematch won by the Mexican on points. By the time the third fight took place last September 17, Golovkin was already 40 years old and forced to move up to 168 pounds (super middleweight) to challenge undisputed champ Alvarez.
