Head of promotional company Matchroom Boxing Eddie Hearn He shared his opinion on the third fight between Mexico’s Saul Alvarez (58-2-2, 39 KOs) and Kazakhstan’s Gennady Golovkin (42-2-1, 37 KOs)
“On the scorecards, the fight was imminent, although I didn’t think so. One round difference and a draw. Gennady will blame himself for the slow start. Canelo was outstanding in the first half of the fight. People will talk about Gennady’s slow start, but Canelo’s moves were incredible. It upset Golovkin, who went to this fight to work as number two.
Canelo looks like he broke his left hand but I think he deserved to win. I got somewhere 9-3. “Gennady finished the battle strong, but Canelo did a lot of damage in the first half of the battle,” he said.
On the night of September 17-18 in Las Vegas, Saul Alvarez defeated Gennady Golovkin by unanimous decision. The result of the fight is 116-112, 115-113, 115-113 in favor of Canelo.
