LAS VEGAS - Gennady Golovkin will make his Las Vegas debut when he meets Canelo Alvarez in a middleweight title showdown that figures to be the richest fight since Floyd Mayweather and Manny Pacquiao squared off two years ago.
Promoters announced on Monday that the much-anticipated Sept 16 fight between Golovkin and Alvarez will take place at T-Mobile Arena on the Las Vegas strip.
The fight will be televised on pay-per-view from the 20,000-seat facility, which won out over bids from AT&T Stadium in Dallas and Madison Square Garden in New York.
