Saul ‘Canelo’ Alvarez and Gennady Golovkin will complete their incredible trilogy next weekend as Las Vegas hosts the huge title fight.
The great foes battled out two thrilling clashes in 2017 and 2018 with the first being ruled a draw before Canelo took the second.
Their rivalry has been one of the best in modern day boxing but fans have had to wait for a third and final clash.
Now, they will go toe-to-toe once again under the lights in Sin City and it should be thriller.
Canelo, who lost to Dmitry Bivol in his WBA light heavyweight title bout in May, will put his super middleweight titles on the line.
Golovkin has only fought four times since his defeat to the Mexican and beat Ryota Murata in Japan most recently.

It is taking place at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.

Canelo vs Golovkin: What’s been said?
Canelo: “I risk everything to keep making history when I don’t need to risk anything. I’ve already achieved so many things. I’m in a position where I don’t have to risk anything, and I still do it.
“Nobody does that when they are in a position like the one I’m in.
“Tell me another fighter who is trying that in other categories, going down and up in weight.
“It’s always been very personal with Gennady. That will never go away. After we finished the two fights, it still feels [very personal).
“He has never stopped talking about me. If you see, I never mentioned his name.
“I’ve always been in his mouth, he’s always talked about me, and that makes it even more personal.
“The fact that there is this rivalry puts an extra element there. It makes me train harder. I try harder. Personally, I sometimes feel better that it exists.”
Canelo has also promised he will end Golovkin’s career: “That’s my goal. That’s my goal for this fight. No disrespect for him. He’s a great fighter. He’s one of the best middleweights in boxing history. But that’s what I train for. My goal is to end his career, his great career.
“I feel hungry. I always train 100%. This is no exception. I feel motivated. I just can’t wait to be in the ring.”
