Rumored Canelo vs Crawford

[borntoloseNOT]

I’m so glad, I don’t put much stock in the Crawford P4P story. They knew Spence was done, and that’s why the fight happened at all. He’s no match for Canelo, just stop.

 

[XThe GreatestX]

the problem with the fight isn't so much Crawford's ability. He seems to be a supreme boxer capable of adjusting to his opponent even during the fight but I wouldn't say he has (1) the iron chin to move up the weights that high and (2) who knows about his punching power up that high.

damn i was starting to picture Crawford pulling it off

Not a fight I want to see Crawford imho is just two small. There are other fights out there these guys could do.

I wish Crawford would forget about this idea and fight at 152. It has been half a year without any legitimate information about any kind of possible fight.

People complaining should realize this: Crawford is 10 levels above all the bums Canelo has been fighting for the last, idk… 3 years? I’ll take whatever I can get.

Be happy he’s not fighting Shane Mosley Jr. next.

Lmfao bivol would shit on Crawford. Crawford fought bums

Per. Turki Alalshikh

"Rumored" "Targeted"

Not true. That's just a date Turki would like to deliver on. Who knows if Canelo is even interested in Crawford or that date. He'll probably just fight in September & May as usual.

If Turki is involved, it's going to happen. Probably not that date though.

F all that noise nelo needs to fight benavidez this year

Prove it.

Thats a lose/lose fight for Canelo. If he wins we get the "Canelo forced him to come up in weight!" talk, if he loses he lost to a guy who fights 4 weight classes below him.

Prove it.

Pretty sure that instagram post is referring to this article. Nothing in at all to make you think Canelo / Crawford will actually happen this year.

In December or January, Alalshikh will look to stage perhaps the biggest fight the sport can offer, a showdown between the face of boxing, Canelo Alvarez, and Crawford in the U.S.

"I'm working to deliver [Canelo], but it will be big fight [for Crawford]," Alalshikh said. "I'll discuss with him the names. "

So yeah I could see Crawford fighting another fight for Turki given he's already doing business with him with the Madrimov fight but who knows if it will be Canelo or more likely someone else.

Alalshikh has big plans for Canelo, Crawford, Fury

Turki Alalshikh, the chairman of Saudi Arabia's General Entertainment Authority, told ESPN he has grand plans for boxing superstars Canelo Alvarez, Terence Crawford and Tyson Fury.

Both should be involved in better fights.

Canelo will be too much for Crawford. I don't care who Crawford trains with or how much he actually weighs - he hasn't faced top competition above 147 yet so we have no reason to believe he wins.

 

[StopDucking]

I’d love to watch this fight tbh.

What a bold and inaccurate statement.

What a bold and inaccurate statement.

Canelo doesn't really need their money.
