Gennady Golovkin vs. Canelo Alvarez Fight Live Stream, Start Time, Preview: 'Supremacy' Match Streaming Guide Revealed
The highly anticipated title defense of Gennady Golovkin against Saul "Canelo" Alvarez for the unified World Boxing Association (WBA), World Boxing Council (WBC), and International Boxing Federation (IBF), Ring magazine, and linear middleweight championship belt is about to unfold on Saturday, Sept. 16.
Boxing aficionados believe that the title match, which is dubbed as "Supremacy," should be considered as the real "super" fight instead of the recently concluded bout between Floyd Mayweather and MMA fighter Conor McGregor in late August. This means that fans of the sports are looking forward to see the outcome of the upcoming sold-out match between the two middleweight fighters.
Golovkin has a spotless 37-win professional record, 33 of which were obtained by knock-outs. But a report claimed that the 35-year-old Kazakhstani might suffer his first loss under the hands of his 27-year-old Mexican opponent despite his 49 wins-1 loss-1 draw career record.
The Golovkin-Alvarez fight will take place at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada on Saturday starting at 8 p.m. EDT. But those who were not able to purchase the highly coveted tickets can still enjoy watching the fights in their homes.
Reports revealed that those who subscribed in HBO Pay-Per-View will be able to catch the fight by paying $79. Those who have no cable subscription can also try other streaming options like The Ring website, which also allows boxing fans to get access to the live match by paying $79. PlayStation Store also offers a streaming service where fans can use their PlayStation 4 consoles for watching.
Sling TV subscribers can also stream the fight through the Rentals tab seen in the Sling account page. Those in the UK will also have their chance to see the much-awaited bout on Box Nation by 2 a.m. local time.
