Give fans what they want: It's time for Canelo vs. GGG

Saturday night in Las Vegas, Canelo Alvarez did what many expected and scored a sixth-round knockout of Amir Khan.

Alvarez hit a flush overhand right after a beautiful faint that sent Khan back to England. It didn't take long for the focus to shift from Khan to the fight everyone wants to see: Alvarez versus middleweight champion Gennady Golovkin.

It had been mandated by the WBC recently that if Golovkin got by Dominic Wade last month and Alvarez got by Khan, they would have to face each other next.
