By Dan Ambrose: WBC president Mauricio Sulaiman will be holding a conference call with Saul “Canelo” Alvarez’s promoters at Golden Boy Promotions and Gennady Golovkin’s promoters at K2 Promotions on Friday to discuss a fight between Canelo and Golovkin. Sulaiman gave Canelo 15 days previously to start negotiations with Canelo otherwise he would strip him of his title, but he’s not playing it strict with him for some reason.
Sulaiman is talking about letting Canelo get in a voluntary defense of his WBC middleweight title next May, and then a possible fight between him and Golovkin taking place next year in September. Canelo would be fighting on both of the Mexican holidays in 2016.
