The biggest boxing match of the year takes place on Saturday night, but HBO has fight fans covered with extensive Canelo-GGG programming all week.

Though it feels like it’s been forever in the making, the showdown between Canelo Alvarez and Gennady “GGG” Golovkin actually came together in pretty short order. Now fight week is actually upon us, with the battle for middleweight supremacy going down on Saturday, Sept. 16 at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.

While the fight itself is on HBO PPV, the network has a full slate of programming on tap starting Monday spread between HBO and HBO2, podcasts, InsideHBOBoxing.com and even YouTube.
