Alvarez vacates WBC title as fight with Golovkin nears (The Associated Press)

Canelo Alvarez insists he wants to make the biggest fight boxing has to offer. ”I will fight GGG and I will beat GGG, but I will not be forced into the ring,” Alvarez said in a statement. ”Gennady Golovkin is hereby recognized as the undisputed WBC middleweight champion of the world,” sanctioning body president Mauricio Sulaiman said.
