墨西哥超级巨星阿瓦雷兹(49-1-1,34 KOs)希望能够在9月16日获得最令人印象深刻的胜利,终结WBC\WBA\IBF\IBO中量级冠军戈洛夫金(37- 0,34 KOs)。
这场由HBO点击付费的战斗发生在拉斯维加斯的T-Mobile竞技场,阿瓦雷兹只争夺IBB\WBA冠军头衔,因为他拒绝向WBC和IBO支付任何管理费。
这场比赛有长达两年的炒作,有些人认为比赛永远不会发生了。之前阿瓦雷兹在160磅的体重限制参加了他的第一场比赛,击败库托拿到WBC的冠军头衔,但随后以155磅的重量进行了两次卫冕战。
阿瓦雷兹说;“我一直认为,淘汰赛是每一个拳击手的梦想,因为它是一个拳击手能奉献给拳迷最有力的胜利,我真的希望能够以这种方式结束战斗。谁赢得这场战斗都将成为世界上最好的,我会竭尽全力尽我所能做的,使之成为一场伟大的战斗和胜利,我总是能比对手领先一步。我的力量已经增长,速度还在,我正在训练的体重大约175磅,但一切正常”。
戈洛夫金三月份只是以点数击败了雅各布斯,在这之前戈洛夫金连续淘汰了23名对手,但他希望淘汰系列能够恢复正常。
Canelo: I Really Hope To End Golovkin - By Knockout!
By Miguel Rivera
Mexican superstar Saul 'Canelo' Alvarez (49-1-1, 34 KOs) is hoping to secure the most impressive victory possible on September 16th, when he challenges WBC, WBA, IBF, IBO middleweight champion Gennady 'GGG' Golovkin (37-0, 34 KOs).
Their HBO Pay-Per-View fight takes place at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.
Canelo is only competing for the IBF, WBA titles - because he refuses to pay any sanctioning fees to the WBC and IBO.

The contest has had two years of hype and some felt the contest would never take place.
Canelo is taking part in his first bout at the full middleweight limit of 160-pounds. Although Canelo previously held the WBC's title at 160, he captured the title and made two defenses at the catch-weight of 155-pounds.
Golovkin is also looking to do damage. He went the full twelve round distance with Daniel Jacobs back in March, but wants to get his knockout streak back on track. Prior to Jacobs, GGG knocked out 23 opponents in a row.
"I always think a fighter dreams of the knockout, because it can be the most forceful victory for a boxer and for the people. This is a fight where I really wish it would end like this," said Canelo to Carlos Zulbaran.
"Whoever wins this fight will be the best in the world. I'm going to give my best, do whatever I have to do to make this a great fight and win. I always go one step ahead of my opponent."
Canelo is feeling very good at the new weight. In his last contest, Canelo moved up to a catch-weight of 164.5-pounds to dominate countryman Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. over twelve rounds back in May.
He feels a lot stronger at the new weight and expects to have more power once he steps in the ring with Golovkin.
"My power has grown and my speed is still there. I'm training at about 175 pounds, but everything is normal," Canelo said. |
