For a third consecutive fight, pound-for-pound king Roman "Chocolatito" Gonzalez will defend his flyweight world title in the co-feature of a Gennady Golovkin middleweight title defense.

K2 Promotions made it official on Friday, announcing that it has finalized a fight between Gonzalez and McWilliams Arroyo. They will meet on April 23 (HBO, 10 p.m. ET/PT) at the Forum in Inglewood, California, in the co-feature of the card headlined by Golovkin (34-0, 31 KOs), who will defend his unified titles against mandatory challenger Dominic Wade (18-0, 12 KOs). The Golovkin-Wade fight was announced earlier this week.

"Having Roman paired with Gennady was a winning combination in 2015, as both fought in front of huge crowds in Los Angeles and New York City," said Tom Loeffler, managing director of K2 Promotions. "Roman has a very fan-friendly style, and we're pleased that following his HBO debut in May at the Forum, he was recognized as the No. 1 pound-for-pound fighter by most of the major media platforms worldwide.
