When is Canelo Alvarez vs Gennady Golovkin 3? UK time, undercard, TV and stream

Canelo Alvarez and Gennady Golovkin will square off in their huge trilogy bout this weekend.

Alvarez and Golovkin will come face-to-face in the third instalment of their bitter rivalry at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas this weekend. The Mexican star will return back to 168lb to stake his undisputed titles after an unsuccessful weight switch to 175lb saw him handed a second career defeat by Dmitry Bivol.

Meanwhile his Kazakh foe will be looking to right the events of the past after being held to a draw and losing to Alvarez in their first two clashes despite many inside the sport suggesting he should have been declared the winner on both occasions.

Quotes corner

Canelo: “I love boxing, but I feel more motivated for this fight. This fight was arranged before my fight with Bivol. “Golovkin won’t talk bad about me now, because I’m here. But he says that I’m scared, I’m running away, when I’m fighting the best guys out there while he’s fighting class D fighters, so that’s a lot of it.

"I hope he thinks it’s personal like I do. He always pretends he’s a nice guy, he’s all about the people. No. he is two different people. He’s just an asshole! It is what it is. I think GGG will be surprised just how much I’ve improved; my resistance and my strength will definitely surprise him.

“I will be the last guy that Golovkin fights. I will retire him – for sure! I will knock him out, and when I’m standing over him, I will feel satisfaction.”

Golovkin : “If this fight is personal for him, then it’s personal. In the fights, you learn something about your opponent, and I believe we have learned something about each other. I don’t see it as anything personal, and my question would be, why? But maybe I did not learn that well, maybe there was something I did not grasp. But that’s his problem, not mine.

“It’s hard to make predications about retirement. When you make a decision to retire, it’s generally not based on just one reason. For this fight, to have your hand raised, you have to do a lot. Both of us realize that. We commit 100% to that. We both want this to happen.

“I don’t think it’s a proper way to put it; try to get a knockout. You always put your best side out there.”
