Canelo Alvarez is set to accept a trilogy with Gennady Golovkin for his next bout instead of rematching Dmitry Bivol.
Alvarez suffered his first loss in almost a decade when he was outpointed by light heavyweight champion Bivol last month. The Mexican was returning to 175lbs for the first time in three years but lost a unanimous decision to the unbeaten Russian.
The undisputed super-middleweight king revealed that his deal to face Golovkin in September was already in place before losing to Bivol, so he plans to stick to that plan and face 'Triple G' on Mexican Independence Day weekend.
