Canelo Alvarez’s second DAZN Pay-Per-View fight Saturday night will cost fans $5 more than the Mexican superstar’s debut on that platform.

DAZN subscribers in the United States can purchase the card headlined by Alvarez and his rival, Gennadiy Golovkin, for $64.99. DAZN costs $19.99 on a monthly basis, thus the total financial commitment to buy their third fight is almost $85.

Customers must purchase at least a one-month subscription to DAZN to watch it through the streaming service’s app. Annual DAZN subscribers will pay less altogether to purchase Alvarez-Golovkin III because the $149.99 cost per year comes out to $12.50 per month.

Those that don’t subscribe to DAZN can buy Alvarez-Golovkin III for $84.99 through cable and satellite operators in the U.S.

The show topped by Alvarez’s 12-round, unanimous-decision defeat to Dmitry Bivol on May 7 cost DAZN subscribers $59.99, or almost $80 if combined with its monthly subscription fee. Non-subscribers paid $79.99 to purchase the Alvarez-Bivol card through such providers as DirectTV and Verizon FIOS.

The price points for Alvarez-Golovkin III are higher in large part because DAZN has provided larger guarantees to Alvarez and Golovkin than the streaming service committed to Alvarez and Bivol, the unbeaten WBA light heavyweight champion. Paying pay-per-view prices for Alvarez-Bivol drew the ire of frustrated boxing fans because employees of the streaming service and its promotional partners had continually condemned the pay-per-view model since it launched in September 2018 and promised to offer even costly, high-profile Alvarez fights as part of DAZN’s monthly and annual subscription plans.

The third bout between Alvarez (57-2-2, 39 KOs) and Golovkin (42-1-1, 37 KOs) will finally take place four years after Alvarez won their 12-round middleweight championship rematch by majority decision in September 2018 at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, the same site at which they’ll fight Saturday night.

DAZN signed Alvarez, 32, to a highly publicized 10-fight contract in October 2018, less than a month after he defeated Golovkin in an HBO Pay-Per-View main event, with the intent of matching the Guadalajara native against Golovkin a third time. Kazakhstan’s Golovkin expected their third showdown to happen much sooner than now when he signed a six-fight deal with DAZN in March 2019.

Alvarez initially refused to fight Golovkin again, which caused a rift that eventually led to legal action, the termination of his partnership with Oscar De La Hoya’s Golden Boy Promotions and the end of his original contract with DAZN. Showtime distributed Alvarez’s pay-per-view victory over Caleb Plant last November 6, but the four-division champion returned to DAZN to battle Bivol as part of a three-fight agreement.

The 40-year-old Golovkin has two fights left on his DAZN deal, including this third bout versus Alvarez.

Whereas their first two bouts were contested at the middleweight limit of 160 pounds, Alvarez and Golovkin will fight for Alvarez’s IBF, WBA, WBC and WBO super middleweight titles Saturday night. Caesars Sportsbook lists Alvarez as a 4-1 favorite to beat Golovkin, who will make his debut at the super middleweight maximum of 168 pounds.
