A win, however, puts the wheels in motion for a fourth fight (and hopefully we won’t have to wait four years for the rematch).

Oddsmakers have Alvarez (57-2-2, 39 knockouts) as the overwhelming favorite.

The strategy was in stark contrast to his more passive approach a year earlier in the first meeting, which ended in a controversial draw. A motto was stitched in red on the other: “Legacy is Earned.” Collazo shook off the cobwebs and got back up, but Pacheco unleashed a combination of punches until referee Celestino Ruiz stepped in at the 2:29 mark to end the fight. Canelo is just too big of a favorite to lay that kind of money on, but he’s younger, still in his prime and I believe he’s better than he was in 2018 when he won their second fight. Rodriguez used a deft jab for most of the fight to keep Gonzalez at bay. A clash of heads occurs in the final seconds of the round. The fight is one-third complete and the drama is lacking so far. Canelo is the aggressor who is marching forward picking and choosing one punch at a time. Golovkin starts to muster offense with an uppercut in the final minute of the round. Canelo Álvarez is increasingly distancing himself from all of the doubts from the first two fights — but it’s coming four years too late.

Then Álvarez followed that punch with a shot to the body that had Golovkin shuffling his feet and wobbling in another dominant round.

Yet it should not be forgotten that, for most of his career, he was an implacable and ferocious world champion. He tried to build on that momentum but, in the last stretch of the fight, Álvarez cruised comfortably home. It was here, in May, that he lost for only the second time in 17 years, when he was outboxed by Dmitry Bivol. He was unable to impose himself and, especially in the first seven rounds, he looked a disconsolate version of the previously formidable middleweight champion who dominated his division for so many years. It was plain that, then, he and Golovkin were two champions of almost equal merit. Álvarez, the undisputed world super-middleweight champion, was a comprehensive winner and the only surprise was that, for once, the judges were sympathetic to Golovkin.

Canelo Alvarez figures in hardly any trouble as the undisputed super middleweight champion beats Gennadiy Golovkin for the second time in three meetings.

Golovkin was second-best throughout the first two-thirds of the fight before he finally came to life in the ninth round, rattling the champion with a left hook and increasing his output. The pair previously fought in the same T-Mobile Arena for the middleweight title in 2017 and 2018, with a draw controversially declared in the first fight before Alvarez won the second on a split decision. Alvarez was rarely troubled as his 40-year-old opponent, the current undisputed middleweight champion, struggled to match the energy and work rate of the title holder, who defeated Golovkin for the second time in three meetings.

“I need to rest my hand, my body, but I will come back stronger. “I need to rest my body,” Alvarez said. “I am glad to share the ring with him.” “You have to continue to move forward,” he said. But I’m a warrior.” But I’m good, I’m a warrior, that’s why I’m here. I will beat him.” Thank you for everything.” I can’t hold a glass. Alvarez improved to 58-2-2 with 39 knockouts, but he said he knew in the first round he wouldn’t get the KO he said he wanted. He’s a tough fighter. “Thank you so much, my friend,” Alvarez said to Golovkin in the ring after a bout whose build-up was marked by some bitter rhetoric.
