Before the third fight scheduled for September 17 Saul Alvarez (57-2-2, 39 KOs) with Gennady Golovkin (42-1-1, 37 KOs) the relations of the boxers heated up sharply.
Especially visible is the hostility from Canelo, who in one of the interviews called the boxer from Kazakhstan a "son of a bitch", accusing him of hypocrisy and artificially creating a positive image. GGG referred to the words of his opponent in an interview with Boxingscene.
"I do not know how to explain it. Maybe it's just a side effect of some substances in his body," Golovkin said. “I treat it like a sporting event, but the words he used are hard to explain or justify.”
