In 2017, Canelo Alvarez and Gennadiy Golovkin had us wanting more. They did it again in 2018. It took a few years, but on Sept. 17, the trilogy fight will finally take place. Canelo and “GGG” will fight one another inside the T-Mobile Arena. On the line will be Canelo’s WBA (Super), WBC, IBF, WBO and The Ring super-middleweight titles.
Canelo made his pro debut in 2005. A four-division champion, Canelo has beaten a who’s who of fighters, including Shane Mosley, Josesito Lopez, Miguel Cotto and Amir Khan. After losing to Floyd Mayweather in 2013, Canelo has gone 15-1-1. Canelo unified the super-middleweight division in just 11 months. His last win was over IBF super-middleweight champion Caleb Plant last November.
In May, Canelo competed for a light-heavyweight title for just the second time in his career. Facing Dmitry Bivol, Canelo lost via unanimous decision.

Golovkin made his pro debut in 2006. He became WBA (first interim, then official) middleweight champion in 2010 and IBO champion in 2011. The king of the middleweights beat the likes of David Lemieux, Kell Brook and Daniel Jacobs before facing Canelo.
Since 2019, Golovkin has won four in a row. He won the IBF and IBO middleweight titles against Sergiy Derevyanchenko in 2019. After two years away from the ring, Golovkin fought Ryota Murata in April. Golovkin won via TKO in the ninth round to win the WBA (Super) middleweight title.
The first fight between the two ended in a controversial split decision draw. Canelo won the second fight via majority decision.
