JAKARTA Mexican boxing legend Julio Cesar Chavez told his junior and compatriot, Canelo Alvarez, how to beat Gennady Golovkin.
Canelo and Golovkin are scheduled to take the ring at T-Mobile in Las Vegas, Nevada, on 17 September. Canelo will try to defend WBA (Super), WBC, IBF, WBO, and The Ring super middleweight titles.
Before that duel, Chavez also told Canelo what he had to do to beat the Kazakh boxer for the second time.
"I think, especially Canelo, should be as close as possible to disturb Gennady Golovkin. That age is starting to burden Golovkin. He is 40 years old," he said in an interview with Azteca TV, reported by Marca, Thursday.
The weekend duel is not the first fight between Canelo and Golovkin. This will be their third fight after they met in 2017 and 2018.
The two drew in the first meeting and Canelo came out victorious in the second meeting. According to Chavez, Canelo's chance to win in the third duel is now wide open.
"I think Canelo, with his strength, knows how to box a little more. So he has to force Golovkin and tire him out," Chavez said.
"But still they know each other. I think this will be a great fight and hopefully Saul [Canelo] will be at the top," he added.
Canelo played this match with the defeat of Dmitry Bivol last May. The defeat made Canelo seeded because he was considered no longer fresh first.
