Canelo Alvarez and Gennadiy Golovkin have reiterated that they are interested in a third fight, probably next year.
The first two were close, with Alvarez-GGG I ending in a controversial draw (most believe Golovkin won) in 2017 and Alvarez winning a majority decision in the rematch the following year.
Alvarez is scheduled to fight next in September, although no opponent has been selected. And Golovkin is expected to defend his 160-pound title against Kamil Szeremeta, also possibly in September.
Alvarez-GGG III could come after that if they both win.
If Alvarez wins the third fight, it will prove that he was the better of the two and enhance his reputation as one of the best fighters of his era. The same with Golovkin, although it might also be the single victory that defines him.
