The first time the pair met was in 2017. That fight ended in a controversial split draw. That result included a strange scorecard from Adelaide Byrd that was especially generous to Alvarez (118-110). Dave Moretti scored the contest 115-113 for Golovkin and Don Trella had it as a 114-114 draw.

The controversy lead to an immediate rematch, which took place the following year. It would have happened sooner if Alvarez had not received a six-month ban for testing positive for clenbuterol. Alvarez would blame the drug test failures on eating tainted beef in Mexico.

When the fight did go ahead it resulted in a majority decision win for Alvarez.

Golovkin is undefeated since the Alvarez loss and most recently TKO’d Ryoto Murada.

But the rivalry between Canelo and Golovkin is more than a competition between two of boxing’s finest fighters. The split draw of their first meeting caused frustration on both sides — but especially Golovkin. Before their rematch, Álvarez was suspended after testing positive for the PED clenbuterol. He blamed it on beef consumed in Mexico, but Golovkin didn’t buy it, leading to barbs thrown by both parties. Then, after the duo’s second meeting four years ago when Canelo narrowly beat GGG by decision, fans begged for a third fight. Now, we’re finally getting it.
