Boxing fans get intrigued with these super middleweights for one reason. It is a division with solid star power, especially when Canelo Alvarez and Gennady Golovkin get it on. If it has felt like a while, then one is absolutely correct. These two have not dropped the gloves in four years. It feels like it has been a good deal longer. A little history here never hurts.
The undisputed super middleweight championship is on the line here as the two fighters get ready for what figures to be another entertaining boxing match Saturday night. Both combatants should be familiar with T-Mobile Arena, as the first two fights took place right here in Las Vegas. Each of the first two fights went the distance, by the way. Most assume that was not the case.

Technically, this boxing card has been in the making for so long, and there are some definite concerns with this fight. Sometimes, it is difficult to comprehend what this truly means for both fighters. The two boxers that comprise the main event come from different walks of life. What will occur on Saturday in Las Vegas figures not to be dull? Below we have the super middleweight boxing bets.
Again, let’s dig into the main event here.
The super middleweight division is still a division that possesses a bit of drama despite unifying the belts on Saturday night. While no one truly knows what may happen in 2023, the winner of this Alvarez-Golovkin fight likely will win because they simply have much more in the stamina department. In the meantime, the numbers are mostly stable as Alvarez remains a heavy, super middleweight boxing bets favorite.
Now, do understand that this fight feels like there is a logical conclusion. The problem is that there is always this possibility that Gennady Golovkin could rise to the occasion one more time. There are many who still believe that Golovkin won the first fight (Alvarez was awarded the split decision). That being said, Alvarez comes in with a record of 57-2-2. He is 15-1-1 since the loss to Floyd Mayweather Jr. in 2013.

Canelo Alvarez’s biggest issue may be legacy. Does the 32-year-old fighter from Guadalajara, Mexico need to come out swinging? Does that play into Golovkin’s hands a little bit? That is very much possible. After all, Alvarez went swinging and missed a lot against Dmitri Bivol. Yes, this fight is at 168 pounds, and that fight was at 175. Still, It taught Alvarez some very sobering lessons.
Canelo Alvarez indeed remains a very heavy favorite. Bettors do not look at Golovkin much because of age and previous events. Is Alvarez primed to finish off Golovkin? That is our huge question. The Mexican boxer may need this moment more than any fight in a long, long time. He has never lost consecutive fights in his career, and Alvarez wants to send 40-year-old Golovkin into a quicker than expected “retirement.”
Therefore, Alvarez has been more aggressive with his training, as that is just how a true champion is. He should be able to take advantage of an aged and slowing Golovkin. Remember, the first fight ended in a draw, and the second was a majority decision. That sparked debate on what happened. It is more widely believed that Alvarez did win the second fight. The first, again, was a different story.
Alvarez wants to get this bout on and over with already. Alvarez needs a fight like this to give him some confidence. One can see it in his interviews and how he has been training. This is why he is our super middleweight boxing bets choice for this fight. The expectation is that Alvarez will bounce back.
With the fight looming Saturday, the best online boxing Vegas odds are out, offering the Kazak fighter as a big underdog. Gennady Golovkin wants one more shot in this bout. This is more than just the belts. Could he take advantage of an overaggressive Canelo Alvarez? That may be possible. The key word here is may.
The good news for Golovkin is that he has faced some of the hardest-punching men in this business. In 44 professional fights, he has 42 wins, with 37 coming by knockout. He has just one loss and one draw — all coming to Alvarez, of course. Golovkin TKO Ryota Murata on April 2:11 into the ninth round. Most of the early part of the Murata fight showed the Kazak to be slowed. It took Golovkin a bit to settle.

As this fight beckons, it is one of those matches with the look of one punch or combination changing everything. If Alvarez is not careful, he could get caught. However, Golovkin could be vulnerable to an earlier decision.
The super middleweight boxing bets say take Alvarez on September 17th by the tenth round or sooner via stoppage.
