Can you watch Canelo vs. GGG without pay-per-view?

Canelo Alvarez vs. GGG will be a can’t-miss fight, but not everyone can afford to pay $60 for it. Is there a way to watch it without pay-per-view?

When Canelo Alvarez and Gennady Golovkin finally meet in the ring to exchange punches, the fans should expect to be treated to a show. There’s a reason why GGG has coined the phrase “big drama show” for his fights. Because even though the outcome is far from dramatic, the way he knocks people out has people talking for days on end.

But Canelo’s not far behind. He got an early start in boxing, and has competed professionally for over 12 years. Ever since he lost to Floyd Mayweather at a young age, he’s won seven times in a row, with four of those wins coming by knockout.

There’s really no telling how this contest is going to play out. But if one thing’s for certain, it’s that this is a can’t-miss fight. Because this is a spectacle, and it’s the way the sport works, it’ll be shown on HBO pay-per-view for $60. Even though this fight is easily worth the price of admission, not everyone can afford to pay for it. Plus, you’ll need cable to watch it, since it won’t be available on HBO Now.

But not all hope is lost. If you’re willing to pay $20 on this fight, you can watch it at a local watering hole or movie theater. If you’re looking to live stream it, there are ways to do that … to your own discretion.

Unfortunately, for anyone looking to avoid watching this fight on pay-per-view, there aren’t many options. According to the international distributors list, there are some countries that are showing it on cable channels or streaming services, but the majority listed are pay-per-view outlets.

If you’re on the fence, this is a contest worth sucking it up and paying $60 for. Given that it’s between two self-proclaimed Mexican style fighters that are in their prime, this could be the most action-packed fight since Marvin Hagler vs. Thomas Hearns.
