I don't draw any motivation from previous fights.He's going to change a lot of things because this fight is taking place in a different weight division and his attitude will definitely change, so there will be a lot of surprises during this fight." Canelo Alvarez lost his last bout against WBA light heavyweight champion Dmitry Bivol and will try to engage himself in lopsided action against Gennadiy Golovkin. If Canelo fails to win the fight, it could be a major setback for his legacy. View this post on Instagram Instagram Post The Mexican boxer has been a menace in the super middleweight category. He earned undisputed status by beating three undefeated world champions and a mandatory defender. While Canelo has vowed to knock 'GGG' out and into retirement, it might be easier said than done.

40-year-old Golovkin is clearly in the final years of his pro-career. He knocked out Ryota Murata in his last fight and is still a major prizefighter in the sport of boxing. That said, age isn't always a factor in regards to a fighter's chances. 43-year-old Luis Ortiz is still active in the heavyweight division, and Manny Pacquiao didn't retire until the age of 42.
