Canelo Álvarez

Motivated by closing his Golovkin rivalry, Canelo Alvarez made amends with his longtime foe: “We gave the fans three good fights.”

I feel fresh, still have good power, and the first opponent that comes (at me), I will be looking to return to the ring.” He’s strong and that’s why we are here, and I am glad to have shared the ring with him,” Alvarez said. “I have gone through some difficult things in my life and the only thing you can do (in defeat) is to try and continue to move forward,” Alvarez said. “He’s a real warrior.” “It is very important for me and my legacy.” Surgery is required and up to six-to-12 months of recovery, he revealed, confiding, “I can’t even pull grass.” "We had three fights that will go down in the history of boxing." “Probably a tactical mistake,” Golovkin concluded of the inactivity that plagued him. His reactions were slower than in the fierce 2017 and 2018 battles with Alvarez and he looked winded. We felt content to lay down our rivalry.” And I was able to hit him, too." He twice whiffed on left-handed blows and was relegated to repeated jabs without sufficient follow-ups.

Too many once-anticipated fights are taking place long after they should.

Make it happen while fans and the participants still care enough and can put on an amazing match. That was another dream bout that happened far too late, and the evidence was in the product. But this was probably the last big stage elite fight we’ll see GGG take part in. This was another example of a fight left on the shelf a few years past its expiration date. [long-awaited](https://www.ringtv.com/640194-on-this-day-lennox-lewis-punishes-and-knocks-out-mike-tyson-in-eight-rounds/) match in 2002 that had been talked about for almost a decade. The bottom line here is this third fight happened far too late for it to leave fans satisfied. On Saturday night, Golovkin was clearly a boxer fighting way past his prime. In the third bout, neither guy looked great, but it’s safe to say GGG is long past his prime. During that span, Canelo has grown leaps and bounds and entered his absolute peak prime years as a fighter. Alvarez and Golovkin should be congratulated for the overall trilogy and theater they’ve provided over such a long period. GGG looked every bit of 40 years old in that ring. The fight left most fans, and even those covering the battle inside the T-Mobile arena in Las Vegas, underwhelmed.

Both Canelo and GGG lowered their numbers considerably, considering the two previous records of their rivalry (2017 and 2018). The same story was repeated with Canelo. - Boxing.

We take a look at the ups and downs of the trilogy between Canelo Alvarez and Gennadiy Golovkin.

And, of course, he remains a Fighter of the Year candidate. It might be the most lucrative fight in the history of that country in spite of Joshua’s obvious vulnerabilities. The end for the scrappy Philadelphia fighter is near. He might still be able to beat the likes of Kamil Szeremeta and Ryota Murata, his victims in his previous two fights. The official scoring had to be jarring for disappointed fans because they saw what they saw, a fight dominated by Alvarez that should’ve been scored as such. They know the scoring didn’t reflect what happened in the ring. And I saw nothing in Alvarez’s third fight with Golovkin that leads me to believe he could overcome Bivol in a rematch, although I’ll take his word on the injury. I gave Golovkin one of the 12 rounds. The 40-year-old Triple-G looked his age for two thirds of the bout and 39 in the last third. He claimed that the late start was his strategy, perhaps because he no longer has the stamina to fight hard for 12 rounds. Those fights would be more winnable for Alvarez and better received by the fans. Then he will pursue a rematch Dmitry Bivol, assuming the Russian defeats Gilberto Ramirez in November.

Dio la impresión de que se estaba abriendo el espacio al nocaut, lo intentó y no le alcanzó. Hay un rival que está invicto en el boxeo y es el tiempo. Una lesión en la muñeca izquierda seguramente condicionó el actuar de Canelo en el ring.
