NEW YORK (Reuters) - Promoters believe the showdown between unbeaten middleweight champion Gennady Golovkin and Saul "Canelo" Alvarez could turn into a series of classic clashes but Alvarez says he needs just one meeting to prove he is superior to the vaunted 'Triple G'.

Kazikhstan's Golovkin will carry a 37-0 record, including 33 knockouts, and his WBC, WBA, IBF and IBO championship belts into the Sept. 16 fight in Las Vegas.
