The construction of Canelo Alvarez-Gennadiy Golovkin 3 was heated but heavily from one side.
In recent weeks, both men have been on a press tour in two cities where each has their say and found the Mexican didn’t shred his words about his opponent. .
The The undisputed super-middleweight champion used vulgar language to describe how he felt towards his opponent, who presented himself in a more gentlemanly manner.
In one Interview with Boxing Scene Golovkin was asked about the change in his relationship with Canelo and what he thought was the cause:
“I don’t even know how to explain it.”
“Maybe it’s just a side effect of certain substances in the body.”
“But I treat it like a sporting event, nothing personal. But the words that he chose to say were inexplicable. Cannot be explained. “
Golovkin appeared to be referring to Canelo’s 6-month ban in April 2018 after failing two drug tests earlier that year. The Kazakhs have brought up this issue in previous interviews, which clearly annoyed the fourth-weight world champion.
Their two matches so far have ended in a controversial draw and a decisive majority victory for Canelo. The rubber match takes place on September 17 at the same venue as the first two, the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas. Earlier this week, the leading contender Fighter of the Year Jesse ‘Bam’ Rodriguez has been announced for the co-main event.
