After the massive box office spectacle of Mayweather vs McGregor ended, September will now play host to the best matchup boxing has to offer sporting-wise. Canelo Alvarez vs Gennady Golovkin happens in two weeks, and they’ve since released a Countdown show to preview the contest.
They’re calling it a “throwback fight” and the show was produced and filmed with that vintage feel. It was shot in an old boxing gym, with everyone in vintage outfits. More importantly, it also featured legends from various generations in boxing, from Thomas Hearns, to Roberto Duran, to Bernard Hopkins.
