History
Following Canelo Ă lvarez's victory against Miguel Cotto in 2015, talks began between the Golovkin and Ă lvarez camps over the future WBC title defense. In the end, an agreement was ultimately reached to allow interim bouts before the fight to, in the words of WBC president Mauricio Sulaiman, "maximize the interest in their highly anticipated showdown. The fight was anticipated to take place well into 2016.
On May 18, 2016, a few weeks after knocking out Amir Khan, Álvarez vacated the WBC middleweight title, which resulted in Golovkin being immediately awarded the title by the WBC who officially recognized him as their middleweight champion. Immediately after his victory over Julio César Chávez Jr. on May 6, 2017, Canelo Álvarez announced that he would next fight Gennady Golovkin on the weekend of September 16, 2017 at a location to be determined. On May 9, Eric Gomez, president of Golden Boy Promotions told the LA Times that Álvarez had an immediate rematch clause in place on his contract, whereas Golovkin, if he loses, won't be guaranteed a rematch. On June 5, the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas was announced as the venue of the fight, and would mark the first time Golovkin would fight in the state of Nevada. The AT&T Stadium, Madison Square Garden and Dodger Stadium missed out on hosting the fight. On July 7, 2017 Golden Boy and K2 Promotions individually announced the tickets had sold out.

Bets/Odds For most of August, Golovkin was -160 and Alvarez was +130, but by the end of the month and for the next few weeks after that, Golvokin held steady at -155 and Alvarez at +125. But some of the late money has come in on Golovkin, who, as of this writing, was back to -160, meaning you’d have to bet $160 to win $100. Alvarez, meanwhile, was +130 again, which means you’d earn $130 off a $100 wager.
Income Purses: Both fighters are guaranteed a $5 million payday, according to ESPN. It’s the exact same amount Alvarez was guaranteed for their first matchup. Golovkin earned a guarantee of $3 million, but both made plenty more off the ticket revenue and PPV sales. Alvarez ended up with around $50 million, while Golovkin earned about $20 million. That contract called for Alvarez to make 70% of the purse. But for this fight, after months of negotiation, the purse split was raised in Golovkin’s favor. Now, Alvarez will make 55%, and Golovkin will make the remaining 45%.
Saul “Canelo” Alvarez and Gennady “GGG” Golovkin met for the second time last night in Las Vegas to settle a score that has been the shame of boxing since it occurred one year ago today. On September 16th, 2017, their first fight was declared a split draw with scores of 114-114, 115-113 Golovkin, and 118-110 Alvarez.
