It would be a cruel blow for Saunders to miss out on his shot at Canelo.
Their bout has been postponed in June, and may not be do-able before September. If this is the case, Canelo is likely to skip Saunders and move straight to GGG.
There's a chance Saunders could rearrange a Canelo bout after the GGG trilogy fight, but that remains pure speculation.
Both Canelo and GGG are signed up with DAZN, meaning they will stream the fight in America.
The last fight between the pair in 2018 was shown on BT Sport Box Office and could be the same this time around.
Canelo v GGG 1 ended in a controversial draw between the superstars,
Golovkin outlanded Canelo in 10 of the 12 rounds during the 2017 bout but the split decision from the judges caused chaos.
Dave Moretti scored the fight 115–113 to Golovkin, while Don Trella went with 114-114, but Adalaide Byrd's wild 118–110 score in Canelo's favour raised plenty of eyebrows.
The vast difference in scorecards between the judges from the first fight led to an inevitable second bout.
However, it proved to be another controversial evening between the fighters as Canelo emerged victorious following another judges' decision.
The scores ruled 115-113, 115-113 and 114-114 in Canelo's favour, though across 18 unofficial scorecards maintained by media personalities, 10 went in favour of GGG, seven ended in a draw and only one suggested Canelo had actually won the fight.
