JAKARTA - Former world boxing champion Julio Cesar Chavez gave his support to Canelo Alvarez. He declared that his compatriot will win by knockout against Gennady Golovkin.

Excitement is rising among boxing fans as Canelo and Golovkin will face off for the third time in their careers.

Chavez said in an interview with En Juego Deportes that he believes Canelo will face a tough fight against Golovkin, even though his compatriot will win the fight via knockout.

Chavez also voiced his dissatisfaction with Canelo and Golovkin's third meeting, saying that the fight was too late in the careers of the two boxers.

Despite his worries, he believes that the fight will not disappoint the fans when they duel on September 17.

Chavez also discussed Canelo's loss to Dmitry Bivol, stating that Canelo was not ready to face Bivol's style.

"Unfortunately Bivol's style was complicated for him. He couldn't, but that's boxing, you win and you lose," said Chavez, quoted by Marca, Sunday, June 5.

Despite the defeat, Canelo still holds the WBA, WBC, IBF, WBO and WBO world titles.
