    And now he’ll get his third crack at it, with Las Vegas set to play host for the third time on Saturday night.

    What has been said?
    “Who is he to finish anybody’s career?” Golovkin has said.

    Canelo added: “Out of our rivalry, this one will be the most important, and also the fact that he’s going into this fight thinking it’s going to be his last makes him more dangerous.

    Canelo Alvarez vs Gennady Golovkin 3: UK start time, TV channel, live stream for HUGE super-middleweight fight TONIGHT

    AFTER all the ups and downs of their last two bouts, Canelo Alvarez and Gennady Golvkin are FINALLY set to go head to head for a trilogy bout TONIGHT.And this third bout ends five years of drama between the pair, who will contest the bout up at super-middleweight.

    The pair began their rivalry in 2017 when their first fight ended in a contentious split draw, with most spectators believing Golovkin to be the worthy winner.
    And they had a rematch, which Alvarez won by majority decision, a year later.
    That fight was also a close one, and since then, Alvarez has moved up a weight class and since become undisputed champion at super-middleweight.
    Golovkin, meanwhile, has unified the titles at middleweight again, but he’ll finally get a third crack at Alvarez later this year, albeit at 40 years old.
    He’ll be buoyed by the fact, however, that his Mexican foe just lost to light-heavyweight Dmitry Bivol, and will have to come back down for a huge fight with ‘GGG’.

    Tyson Fury vs Anthony Joshua: Live stream, TV channel, venue and purse for HUGE heavyweight ‘Battle of Britain’ clash

    BRITISH boxing fans are set to be in for a treat this winter as Anthony Joshua and Tyson Fury will FINALLY face off.The Gypsy King called out Joshua after claiming that talks with Ukrainian machine Oleksandr Usyk had stalled.
    Anthony Joshua lost to Oleksandr Usyk for a second consecutive timeCredit: AFP
    But after weeks of negotiations, AJ shockingly accepted Fury’s offer despite disappointingly losing to Usyk less than a month ago.
    Here is everything you need to know about Anthony Joshua vs Tyson Fury.
    Joshua vs Fury – when will it happen?
    Anthony Joshua vs Tyson Fury was originally set to take place over two fights, with the pair verbally agreeing a deal last summer.
    The first fight was supposed to happen in August before Deontay Wilder’s team won a legal battle against Fury, securing the Bronze Bomber’s right to a contracted trilogy rematch, which he lost.
    But negotiations are progressing nicely and it seems as if the huge fight will happen on December 3.
    Joshua vs Fury – where will it take place?
    As stated by Hearn, the first fight was likely to take place in Saudi Arabia, with a second eyed to take place in the UK.
    Anthony Joshua successfully regained his titles against Andy Ruiz Jr in Saudi while Tyson Fury wowed the crowd by making a WWE appearance in the Gulf State.
    However reports suggest the ‘Battle of Britain’ clash will take place at the Principality Stadium in Cardiff.
    Joshua vs Fury – how much will they earn?
    A lot. That’s the simple answer.
    But a figure of £70million has been floating around with Tyson Fury set to take home 60% of the purse whilst AJ takes 40%.
    Hearn also spoke earlier this year about how he expects the pair to make ‘Mayweather money’, referencing the grand purses Floyd used to pull in for his fights.
    Most read in Boxing
    “It’s certainly I think, you know, the biggest fight, the most lucrative fight, in boxing right now – unquestionably,” Hearn said.
    “That’s Mayweather money. You know? And we haven’t seen Mayweather money since Mayweather.
    “I think it’s impossible to give a number. There’s no set purses for this fight because, obviously, it’s a revenue share. But it’s certainly gonna break records everywhere.”
    Joshua vs Fury – what hurdles are left to clear?
    Fortunately for boxing fans… none!
    The venue, purse and date of the fight have all been agreed which means that these two iconic heavyweights can prepare for ‘Battle of Britain’.

    When will Tyson Fury vs Anthony Joshua take place? All you need to know on blockbuster bout
    Joshua vs Fury – what channel will it be on in the UK?
    This could be a tricky one.
    Joshua had an exclusive deal with Sky Sports in the UK, but it expired after his fight with Usyk, and while Fury’s deal with BT Sport isn’t exclusive, he’s closely aligned with them.
    Fury, however, has fought on Sky Sports Box Office before, most notably for his world heavyweight title win over Wladimir Klitschko in 2015.
    Don’t be surprised if the two sides come to an agreement where both Sky and BT decide to work together on a dual-broadcast.
    Streaming DAZN, however, are also a part of the UK market, as they exclusively broadcast all of Matchroom’s fight nights.
    One thing holding any potential bids from DAZN, however, is that they don’t offer fights on pay-per-view, like Sky and BT do.
    In the U.S., the situation is also tricky.
    Fury has an exclusive deal with ESPN, while Joshua’s last four fights have been shown on streaming service DAZN in the U.S.
    ESPN offer a pay-per-view service for their big fight nights while DAZN work on a subscription-based model, making a deal for the fight to be shown on both channels difficult.
    Joshua vs Fury – what have they all said?
    AJ’s promoter Eddie Hearn confirmed that they have accepted the offer after thrashing out talks with Frank Warren’s son George
    Hearn said: “We just went back this morning and said, I spoke to AJ about that offer, we think, I think particularly he deserves more than 40 per cent.
    “But, he’s happy. And I don’t make the decisions, he does. So I went back this morning and said, ‘We accept 60/40’.
    Most read in Boxing
    “We want that reversed in the rematch, rightfully so because you’re champion here, you want the bigger split, which I think is fair.
    “They’re all former good men, back in the early 2000s, late 2000s, but not in 2020-odd. They were good men 10 years ago.” More

    Chris Eubank Jr vs Conor Benn: Date, UK start time, live stream, TV channel, undercard for British dust-up

    CHRIS EUBANK JR and Conor Benn are set to clash in a bout that will stoke the memories of the 1990s. It was in 1990 and again in 1993 that Eubank Sr and Nigel Benn fought two brutal world title fights.

    Eubank Sr won the first one via 9th-round TKO, picking up the WBO middleweight title in the process, but the second fight, which took place at super-middleweight, ended in a draw.
    Now 29 years on, their sons will clash.
    Eubank Jr, a middleweight who has also campaigned at 168lbs, will come down to his lowest weight ever 157lbs to challenge Benn – a career welterweight.
    It was a fight which was first floated into the ether after Eubank Jr beat Liam Williams earlier this year.
    Nobody took the idea of it seriously, apart from Benn, who has struggled to find a competitive fight at 147lbs.

    When is Eubank Jr vs Benn?

    Eubank Jr’s massive clash with Benn will take place on Saturday, October 8, 2022.
    The fight will take place at the O2 Arena in front of 18,000 fans.
    Both men will clash 29 years on, almost to the day, from Eubank Sr vs Benn 2 at Old Trafford on October 9, 1993.
    Ring-walks for the main event are expected to get going at around 10pm UK time.

    What channel is it and can it be live streamed?

    Eubank Jr vs Benn will be shown live on DAZN PPV
    You can subscribe to DAZN for £7.99-a-month, but that does NOT give you streaming access to Eubank Jr vs Benn.
    The clash is available for live streaming from the DAZN app, which you can download onto your mobile or tablet device.

    The full card is yet to be announced but SunSport will be regularly updating fans once the other fights are revealed.
    What has been said?
    Both fighters are excited to put on a showdown which will roll back the years for many boxing fans.
    Eubank Jr said: “I grew up watching their legendary battles and always wanting to emulate that, and find my own arch nemesis… could this now be Conor Benn? We will find out.
    “He has walked the same path as I have. I know his struggle. Living in the shadow of a legend and trying to break out of that shadow and make his own name. If he can beat me, his name will be made, and he will never walk in his father’s shadow again.

    “It’s a fight that’s going to spark the imagination of the British public, that’s what I’m happy about. In terms of anticipation, legacy and hype it’s the biggest fight of my career.”
    Whilst Benn said: “This fight is for the legacy and was an opportunity I felt I couldn’t pass up.
    “My team and I had other options on the table as I’m currently ranked top 5 with all governing bodies at Welterweight and no doubt I’m looking for a World Championship fight very soon, but this fight is embedded with so much history and I know it’s one the public really want to see.
    “To me this fight is personal – it’s more than titles and rankings, this is unfinished business between our families!” More

    Anthony Joshua must decide TOMORROW and rip up new DAZN contract if he will accept Tyson Fury fight offer

    ANTHONY JOSHUA must decide by WEDNESDAY if he will accept a November Battle of Britain with Tyson Fury.But the battered and bruised 32-year-old former world champ will have to rip up his brand new mega-money deal with broadcasters DAZN to make the fight happen on the Gypsy King’s terms and channel.

    Fury revealed he is handing the opportunity to AJ in a social media video on MondayCredit: Getty
    WBC champion Fury, 34, has made a more-than-generous offer of 60-40 per cent for the former two-time WBA, IBF and WBO boss to take a short-notice crack at his title, on the back of consecutive losses to Oleksandr Usyk.
    The mid-November clash – on Fury’s backers BT Sport – would give AJ just around 10 weeks to prepare for the biggest fight in British boxing history, with him barely having recovered from the August 20 shootout with the 35-year-old Ukraine icon.
    It’s a win-win deal for Fury, who either gets a big-money tilt at his rival when his confidence and bargaining power is at rock bottom or the chance to call AJ a coward for not accepting the terms.
    But the minimal notice and exclusive rival broadcast deals means the deal is almost dead in the Thames before it has even got off the ground.
    READ MORE IN BOXING
    Team Joshua believe the short notice and well-known TV commitments means the offer was always a bluff from the master manipulator. A source told us: “This is typical Fury.
    “If it was a fair offer then AJ – who now has £150million in the bank and nothing to lose and he has never been more dangerous – could take it.

    “But a November fight after Usyk on August 20 is totally unrealistic.”
    Fury’s promoter Frank Warren was working on a December 17 undisputed decider against Usyk, until the Ukraine genius delayed with injury.

    And he reckons the offer he sent on Tuesday morning was more than fair, considering Joshua’s new predicament toward the wrong end of the heavyweight food chain.
    He said: “We have got to a stage where we have initiated this and we have sent through what we are prepared to do to make this fight happen, then we will see if they want it.
    “It will be in the UK in November. It’s perfect timing for AJ to accept it, it would take him a long time to get himself back into the world title scene so he should grab this with both hands.
    “Usyk will not be ready until March so Tyson wants to fight before then.
    “It’s not rocket science, we have presented the pot and they can decide if they want it or not. We have opened the door and let them in.”
    But AJ promoter Eddie Hearn feels like the 6ft 9in undefeated Morecambe mastermind is playing tricks with fight fans and Christmas is the earliest this cracker could be pulled together.
    He countered: “Fury’s outstanding at getting the public to believe absolute nonsense.

    “Personally, I don’t think he’s serious about it.
    “But like I said, AJ would have no problem with taking this fight in December.” More
