25/1 Golovkin to beat Alvarez

Get amazing enhanced odds on Coral 25/1 Gennady Golovkin to beat Alvarez.

Gennady Golovkin and Saul Alvarez meet in Las Vegas this Saturday to decide who is the best middleweight boxer in the world.

The bout is being heralded as a throwback to the good old days of boxing, especially as it follows so soon after the spectacle between Floyd Mayweather Jr and UFC’s Conor McGregor is the same ring two weeks ago.

The aggressive Kazakh, Golovkin is renowned for his walk-forward style and concussive punching while his Mexican opponent is a wily counter puncher. Golovkin has been waiting three years for this matchup since when he’s been the mandatory challenger for Alvarez’ middleweight crown.  The Kazakh has not hidden his frustration at what he sees as the WBC belt holder’s decision to avoid the fight by choosing to defend against weaker opponents in Amir Khan and Liam Smith.

Alvarez is a former light middleweight champion and despite claims he is not big enough to beat Golovkin, the Mexican looked rock solid when outpointing Julio Cesar Chavez at super middleweight in May.

At 34, Golovkin is seven years older than Alvarez but hasn’t been in the ring as often as his opponent. He has had 37 fights in total, 14 fewer than his busy Mexican opponent. Golovkin had his toughest bout when beating Daniel Jacobs in March to maintain his 100% career record, a stat he is confident of maintaining at the sell-out T-Mobile Arena this weekend.
