World Boxing Council President Mauricio Sulaiman predicts the fight between Saul 'Canelo' Alvarez and Gennady Golovkin, will be a super classic to savor after Canelo?s clash with Amir Khan, culminating in a massive sixth round KO.
Sulaiman said ?the gravitational pull towards a meteor shower/storm between Canelo and GGG, is irresistible, and anticipated for a Las Vegas venue, or even possibly the Dallas Cowboys Stadium??
Sulaiman revealed the fact that ?we went live to Canelo and Golovkin, and both of them showed their intense interest to get in the ring as soon as possible."
They have started to negotiate and they've got a couple of weeks, if there is not an agreement we will have a purse bid. The side which offers the most will earn the rights of organizing the clash."
Mauricio also commented, ?we're now talking about one of the most important fights of recent times, comparable with the Super Bowl or the Baseball World Series. Three strikes and you're out??
