JAKARTA - Canelo Alvarez's recent loss to Dmitry Bivol shocked many people. To that end, boxing legend Mike Tyson believes that there is an opportunity for other boxers to take advantage of Canelo's slump.

The loss to Bivol was the Mexican boxer's second in his career. It also made him fail to win another title in the light heavyweight category.

"I just spoke to Uncle Mike, it's the legendary Mike Tyson, and he said to me, 'Now, the time to beat Canelo is now,' said Henry Cejudo, revealing his conversation with the great boxer. June.

"'He just felt he was being treated unfairly, but he may be fighting emotionally'.

Cejudo seemed to see a number of logical points from what Tyson said, however, he felt that Gennady Golovkin was also in an equally vulnerable position.

Canelo vs Golovkin volume three will be held on 17 September. The two boxers have faced each other twice in their careers, in September 2017 in a fight that ended in a draw, and a year later Canelo beat Golovkin.

"I think Triple G looked angry the whole time because they felt they were being treated unfairly for losing to Canelo and seeing what Bivol did," added Cejudo.

"I think Triple G will be more defensive in this fight."

It was confirmed that Golovkin will fight Canelo again after he performed well against Japanese boxer Ryota Murata on April 9. At that time, GGG won to unify the WBA and IBF middleweight titles.

Although Golovkin turned 40 on April 8 and performed well against Murata, fans hope Canelo take advantage of the situation to beat the Kazakh boxer and end their rivalry.
