The wait for the biggest fight to be made in boxing today may finally be over.

It appears Saul ‘Canelo’ Alvarez and Gennady Golovkin have come to a verbal agreement to go toe-to-toe inside the squared circle in a 160-pound bout in Fall of 2017, according to Boxing Junkie.

Golovkin’s promoter, Tom Loeffler, took a trip to Los Angeles to visit Oscar De La Hoya at Golden Boy Promotion’s offices, to negotiate a possible deal with ‘Canelo’s’ representatives for the perennial super-fight between the two boxing stars.

The plan is for ‘Canelo’ to fight on September 17th at 154-pounds, against an opponent yet to be revealed, before making the climb to 160-pounds for a Golovkin bout.

The 25-year-old Mexican star holds an impressive record of 47-1-1, with his only career loss coming at the hands of the legendary Floyd ‘Money’ Mayweather back in 2013 via majority decision.

Golovkin is a frighting 34-year-old knockout artist who is currently undefeated in his career with a record of 35-0, and is on a tumultuous 22-fight knockout streak.

Do you believe the colossal boxing match will finally come to fruition? If so, who do you see emerging victorious between the two heavy-hitting studs?

Miller was pulled from the fight and now he will fight Mattia Schiavolin in a light heavyweight bout at the event. Mayhem will have to weigh-in at 7:00 pm local time. Mayhem can’t be over 207.

Barnatt (10-3) will now battle Stefan Croitoru (6-1-1) in a title fight. Barnatt won the title in December after he submitted Mattia Schiavolin via fourth-round rear-naked choke submission.

Miller (28-9. 1 NC) hasn’t fought, due to legal troubles, since May 2012 against C.B. Dollaway at UFC 146, which he lost.
