It took some last-ditch negotiating, but the rematch between Gennady Golovkin( 38-0 -1, 34 KOs) and Canelo Alvarez( 49-1 -2, 34 KOs) is all set for this fall. As you may know by now, this was due to happen on May 5th, but Canelo's drug test failure derailed everything, and there was concern over whether the fight would still happen this year. Both parties are satisfied with the final terms of the new fiscal split, so now the countdown is on for these two to go at it again .

While their first meeting last September ended in a controversial divide draw, a majority of the public and pundits believed Golovkin should've gotten the nod. Adelaide Byrd's 118-110 Canelo scorecard was subject to plenty of ridicule, plus accusations of outright corruption. We're assuming the Nevada Athletic Commission won't have her on this fight … but it is the Nevada Athletic Commission .

Early betting odds have been released following the announcement of the rematch, and the man from Kazakhstan is the favorite over his Mexican counterpart .
