Golovkin to Alvarez: "Thank you for not making me wait until 50"

September 17 Gennady Golovkin (57-1-2, 39 KOs) will get a long-awaited chance to settle scores with Saul Alvarez (57-2-2, 39 KOs). The 40-year-old boxer from Kazakhstan has no doubt that his opponent, eight years younger, deliberately postponed their third confrontation.

“Four years after the last fight is a lot, but I feel relieved that Canelo did not make me wait until I hit 50. At some point it seemed quite likely,” said Golovkin, commenting on the business decisions of the Mexican.

The live broadcast of the third fight between Alvarez and Golovkin will take place on the DAZN platform starting on the night of Saturday to Sunday at 6:00 am Kyiv time.
