Both sides agreed in May to meet again but hadn’t decided on a venue. Tickets will go on sale at 10 a.m. Monday.

The trilogy began Sept. 17, 2017, and ended in a draw. Alvarez, 31, won the rematch a year later by majority decision.

But in the most recent fight for Alvarez (57-2-2, 39 knockouts), he lost a decision to WBA light heavyweight champion Dmitry Bivol on May 7 at T-Mobile Arena.

Golovkin, 40, is 42-1-1, with 37 knockouts.
