Alvarez fights Crawford Sept.13
Canelo Álvarez and Terence Crawford reportedly weighed in a pound under the 168 tremendous middleweight degree immediately in Las Vegas, NV.
The foolish ceremonial weigh-in might be staged tonight. In the present day’s boxing seems to don’t have any respect for the historical past of the game. (Name me a curmudgeon if you happen to should)
Alvarez is favored (barely) to win.
2025 has been a down 12 months in boxing. A excessive was heavyweight champion Oleksandr Usyk stopping Daniel Dubois a few months in the past. Rematches between Katie Taylor and Armando Serrano and Dimitry Bivol have been attention-grabbing. Naoya Inoue fights in a number of days. David Benavidez continues to impress.
The month of August had some fights, however not any large ones.
Canelo Álvarez versus Terence Crawford is the occasion/combat of the 12 months.
Alvarez, 35, is a two-time undisputed tremendous middleweight champion. He reclaimed the IBF title earlier this 12 months with a boring victory over William Scull.His expertise look like eroding after nearly 70 fights and twenty years within the ring, however I’m considering Alvarez might be amped and prepared for Crawford.
Crawford,37, is a former light-weight, and junior welterweight and welterweight champion. He captured a 154-pound belt a number of months in the past. Crawford has gained all 41 of his fights, 31 by knockout. He’s sensible and imply.
I anticipate a sluggish burner with the early rounds being a chess match. After – a combat may get away.
