There’s something about September at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas. In 2017 and 2018, the venue hosted middleweight world titles fights between Saul “Canelo” Alvarez and Gennady Golovkin as autumn fell, and the same will be the case this year.

On Saturday night, Golovkin will look to prove his superiority over Canelo, having been denied what many observers feel were rightful wins against the Mexican in the rivals’ two previous encounters.

In 2017, the pair fought to a controversial split draw, before their rematch 12 months later saw Canelo crowned a majority-winner decision after the closest of contests.

Following those middleweight meetings, the fighters will square off at super-middleweight this weekend, as Canelo (57-2-2, 39 knockouts) seeks to retain his status as undisputed champion.

The 32-year-old enters the bout on the back of just his second loss as a professional, a decision defeat by light-heavyweight champion Dmitry Bivol in May, while Kazakh Golovkin (42-1-1, 37 KOs) last fought in April, stopping Ryota Murata to unify three middleweight titles just days before turning 40.

Here’s all you need to know about Canelo vs “GGG” 3.
