Canelo vs. GGG 3: Watch Gennadiy Golovkin's intense workout routine for Canelo Alvarez
Gennadiy Golovkin has released an intense training video ahead of his trilogy fight with Canelo Alvarez on September 17 in Las Vegas.
The clip shows Golovkin riding a bicycle on mountainous terrain before working out in the gym.
'GGG' appears to be in excellent shape, performing resistance-based exercises such as weighted Russian twists, weighted pull-ups and bench-presses. The former undisputed Middleweight Champion also displayed his destructive punching power on the heavy bag.
Golovkin also narrates the video and explains what it's like to be facing Canelo for a third time. He said:
"You realize that this is the highest point, the peak. The best, the highest peak. And you're climbing the peak, the third time. You realize that it's extremely difficult, that it's far from being easy, that it's a constant struggle. Every second, every round is an enormous struggle. In some parts you are able to go faster, while others are tougher. But you're trying to reach the peak, right?"

Golovkin previously fought Canelo Alvarez in 2017 and 2018. Despite their first encounter ending in a draw, the majority believed 'GGG' should have been awarded the victory.
In the rematch, Alvarez was the victor via majority decision. However, this was another highly competitive contest that many believe could have gone either way.
