Canelo vs Kovalev: UK start time, TV channel, live stream, undercard for WBO light-heavyweight title fight

Rather than entertaining a third fight with Gennady "GGG" Golovkin, Canelo Alvarez is jumping two weight classes in pursuit of capturing a championship in a fourth weight class. Alvarez will travel 15 pounds north to challenge WBO light heavyweight champion Sergey Kovalev Saturday night from Las Vegas' MGM Grand Garden Arena.

Alvarez (51-1-2, 35 KOs) is riding a three-fight winning streak following a draw against Golovkin that includes a majority decision win in their rematch, a knockout of Rocky Fielding and a decision over Daniel Jacobs. He has previously held world championships at light middleweight, middleweight and super middleweight. Kovalev (34-3-1, 29 KOs) has won two in a row, avenging a shocking TKO loss to Eleider Álvarez with a decision win in the rematch and stopping Anthony Yarde in a hard fought August bout to set up the showdown with Canelo.
