The first fight between the two world-class athletes sold out in only two weeks, and tickets will surely be in even higher demand as both fighters have promised they will not leave the rematch in the judges’ hands. Canelo vs. GGG 2 will take place Saturday, May 5 and will be produced and distributed live by HBO Pay-Per-View beginning at a special time of 8:00 p.m. ET/5:00 p.m. PT.
The two fighters will meet for the first time since last September’s controversial draw at an event at Microsoft Square at L.A. LIVE Tuesday, Feb. 27. More details will be announced shortly.
Canelo, who many feel was gifted a decision the first time around, is planning to make the judges redundant in the eagerly-anticipated return.
“I am happy to return for the fourth time at T-Mobile Arena for this historic rematch against [Gennady] Golovkin,” said Canelo.
“I opened the doors of this place to the world of boxing, and it has become my favorite venue.
This is where the fight started, and this is where I’ll end it by doing what I and my fans most desire: knocking him out.”
