Want to watch the middleweight title fight between Canelo Alvarez and Amir Khan on Saturday night but you don't have cable or satellite TV -- or an HBO subscription?
No problem: Golden Boy Promotions will stream the fight card live beginning at 9 p.m. Eastern at canelokhan.com. Cost of the fight is $69.95.
The main event is expected to begin around 11 p.m.
Fans with cable or satellite TV can watch via HBO pay-per-view.
Canelo, 26, is 46-1-1, with 32 KOs. Khan, 30, is 31-3 with 19 KOs.
Khan chased big fights for years before finally winding up in a one against a fighter he freely admits is bigger and stronger than him.
Khan wasn't going to let his chance get away, even if Alvarez is a heavy favorite when they meet for a piece of the middleweight title.

Big underdogs can win too, says Khan, who doesn't want Leicester City's Premier League championship to be the only big sporting upset this week.
"They were like 5,000-1 underdogs and no one expected them to win," Khan said of Leicester. "It shows it may be the year of the underdog. If they can do it, I can too. It's all about having belief in yourself."
Alvarez is a 5-1 favorite in their pay-per-view showdown.
It doesn't help that Khan had to move up in weight to get a shot at Alvarez, finally landing a spot in a big fight after years of chasing bouts with Floyd Mayweather Jr. and Manny Pacquiao. The fight will be held at a catch weight of 155 pounds, 8 1/2 more pounds than Khan weighed in his last bout.
By the time the two get in the ring, Alvarez is likely to weigh 170 pounds or more. The size difference is expected to be noticeable, with Khan having fought most of his career at 140 pounds.
"I would have preferred it to be a little closer to 147 (welterweight limit)," Khan said. "But I'm going to beat him at his own weight fair and square, no excuses."
