It has almost been a month since the lineal World Middleweight Champion, Saul ‘Canelo’ Alvarez (49-1-2) collided with the unified IBF, IBO, WBA, WBC World Middleweight Champion Gennady Golovkin (37-0-1) in the battle that several inside boxing felt would determine who is the pound-for-pound best fighter on the planet following the retirements of undefeated multi-weight champions.
Controversy followed as both fighters retained the titles they came to ring with on September 16th, a questionable verdict after it had appeared to many that Golovkin had done enough to earn the victory by both working harder, throwing more and ultimately landing more than his Mexican rival. The result has left many clamouring for the two combatants to once again come together and square off to settle the issue.Â
