But let's go a little further and look at some of the band. Here's all you could miss in boxing this weekend.

Canelo Alvarez (50-1, 34 KOs) MD wins against Gennady Golovkin (38-1-1)

What I liked: Because most observers thought that Golovkin won the first fight against Alvarez who was judged nil and that Alvarez failed two drug tests, it was not appreciated to participate in the revenge. But Alvarez is a fantastic fighter. His ability to successfully change his tactics for revenge, instead of using lateral movement, as he did in the first fight, he always stood in front of Golovkin and / or tracked Golovkin to straighten him. Golovkin's fighter and his chin to take all the best Golovkin's shots make him one of the best fighters of that era. It's a special average weight, and I'm not sure Golovkin can beat him enough to win a victory in the eyes of the judges.

What I did not like: Every boxing author that I am has had either a Golovkin victory or a draw. On my quick scan of Twitter, I did not see anyone who thought that Alvarez had won the fight. I noted 116-112 for Golovkin (the judges had 114-114, 115-113, 115-113 for Alvarez). It's a pity for Golovkin that most observers think he has lost neither fight and is coming out of the series of two fights with Alvarez with a draw and a defeat. At 36, it seems that Golovkin is not young or strong enough to dominate the top of the middleweight division, as he did for level B and C fighters. Saturday we saw an old Golvokin on the ring. It seems unlikely that it can reverse this trend in the face of high-level opposition.

What this means: The two fighters will earn tens of millions of dollars through this fight, and none of these men will find another opponent who will earn them so much money. So, it makes sense to have a third fight (although the Sports News has a convincing counter-argument). After the fight, Alvarez said that Golovkin was a great opponent and a great rival. As for giving Golovkin another blow, he said that if people wanted to see him again, he would give him another chance. "We will do it again, without a doubt," said Alvarez. But if you are Golovkin, you will probably have to take less money to do it.

Other notable fights:

Showing his immense power, 21 years Jaime Munguia (31-0, 26 KOs) outscored Brandon Cook (20-2), knocking him down once before Tony Weeks stopped the fight in the third round. Although this was the least interesting match on the sub-card, there was a good reason why we saw Munguia in this co-star role. That's because HBO is high on the average weight that hits hard. Munguia, who won a $ 250,000 purse, could be a future opponent of Alvarez or Golovkin, and he could be the next star on the network. After Cook's domination, there is a good reason for so much optimism towards Munguia.

It was the complete domination by David Lemieux (40-4, 34 KOs), who knocked Spike O. Sullivan (28-3) with a hard left hook that put him on the canvas in the first round. The referee then stopped the fight before O. Sullivan could get up. Before the fight, HBO said Lemieux, who earned $ 200,000 over $ 400,000 from O'Sullivan's pay day, reached the high of 179 pounds, 19 pounds higher than the average weight in ). Meanwhile, O. Sullivan was 164 pounds, so he was effectively compensated by 15 pounds. "I'm a heavy middleweight," said Lemieux afterwards. Subsequently, he said he would not be worried about Golovkin, who knocked him out in 2015. Previously, Lemeiux had said he had fought Golovkin at the Golovkin summit. Now, he would like Golovkin to fight against Lemieux at the top of Lemieux.

Nearly two years until the date Roman Chocolatito Gonzalez (47-2, 39 KO's) scored one last victory, he delivered a devastating right to eliminate Moises Fuentes (25-6-1) in the fifth. After defeating Carlos Cuadras in September 2016, Gonzalez, the former number one fighter of the pound, lost two fights against Srisaket Sor Rungvisai, including a knockout loss. Although Gonzalez ($ 200,000 purse) started slowly on Saturday, he did better and better as the rounds progressed. The future Hall of Famer apparently still has something.

In an exciting fight during an impressive performance, Jose Ramirez (23-0, 16 KOs) has pioneered a win to defend his junior title against middleweight against Antonio Orozco (27-1). Ramirez ($ 250,000 salary) scored two assists, and Orozco managed to survive both runs and eventually finished the fight. But there is no doubt that Ramirez is a potential star.
