Alvarez put a condition for Golovkin for the third fight – Boxing News

The boxers met twice: in September 2017, their first fight T-mobile Arena in Las Vegas ended in a draw, and a year later in the same arena by the decision of the majority of judges won Alvarez. Golovkin suffered his first career loss and lost his WBC, WBA (Super) and IBO titles. Later, the two fighters declared themselves ready to hold the third match.

"Alvarez says he's going to give Golovkin a third fight only when he signs a contract with DAZN. If Golovkine decides to go in a different direction, having signed an agreement with ESPN, the chances of a third battle between them will collapse while Kanelo will be linked to DAZN for the next five years.

Alvarez, 28, recently signed a contract for 11 fights and $ 365 million with DAZN. It's a big sum for Canelo, but he does not have another big name to fight in the TV platform.– writes Boxingnews24.com.

Earlier, GGG's developer, Tom Leffler, said his client had received offers of cooperation from the DAZN streaming service and the ESPN television channel. According to him, Golovkin must make his choice before the end of the year.

Note that the duel with "Kanelo" was the last for this year for Golovkin. Kazakhstan's return to the ring is scheduled for spring 2019.

At the same time, GGG demanded direct revenge, but the WBC refused, allowing Mexicans to voluntarily defend themselves. Alvarez will have his next fight on December 15th New York (USA) against the "ordinary" WBA middleweight champion, Britain's Rocky Fielding (27-1, 15 KO's). In case of victory, Kanelo will become the world champion in three weight clbades.
