Top middleweights Gennadiy Golovkin and Sergiy Derevyanchenko go head-to-head on Oct. 5 for the vacant IBF middleweight title, a fight that isn't on traditional television. Here's how you can live stream the fight.

Gennadiy Golovkin and Sergiy Derevyanchenko battle Saturday, Oct. 5, at Madison Square Garden in New York City for the vacant IBF middleweight title

Golovkin (39-1-1, 35 KOs) rebounded from his first career loss to Canelo Alvarez in September 2018 to score a fourth-round knockout over Steve Rolls in June. He'll look to get win No. 40 against Derevyanchenko (13-0, 10 KOs), who enters as a sizable underdog.

Derevyanchenko was unsuccessful in his first attempt to win a world title, losing by split decision to Daniel Jacobs in October 2018. But the 33-year-old came back with a unanimous decision win against Jack Culcay in April.

The fight between GGG and Derevyanchenko is not available on traditional pay-per-view via cable or satellite. Instead, fight fans will need to subscribe to DAZN and download the app in order to live stream the fight.
