The mega-combat between the superstar Canelo Alvarez and Terence Crawford would be “now outside “ For September. We do not know why it is extinguished, but it is possible that the two cannot negotiate the agreement.
Crawford (41-0, 31 kos) was supposed to reassemble two divisions from 154 to 168 to challenge WBA, WBC and average weight champion WBO Canelo (62-2-2, 39 kos) for its belts on September 13 The alleging stadium with 65,000 seats in Las Vegas.
The Jake Paul postman
The ring announced the news on X About the fight of Canelo-Crawford. No reason has been given at this time. Canelo would have planned to fight the very popular Youtuber Jake Paul in May in a fight that could make crazy figures, overshadowing what Canelo-Crawford would bring.
Jake Paul has 20.9 million subscribers on YouTube and 28.8 million Instagram followers. With so many people to market Canelo-Paul’s fight, it is not surprising to know why Canelo would like to go in this direction above a confrontation against Crawford, 37, who has no huge suite social.
Most PPV purchases of a Canelo-Crawford fight would come from Mexican, with Crawford who just brought a little. As such, trying to negotiate a fight between them would be a pure nightmare because Crawford sees himself at Canelo level, and he is not.
Canelo can earn much more money by fighting Jake Paul twice, then focusing on the fight against David Benavidez or Artur Beterbiev. A fight between Canelo and these two popular fighters would bring much more PPV purchases than to Crawford.
Canelo options
Canelo has several best options at his disposal to earn money than fighting Crawford. In addition, Alvarez would not receive any credit for having beat him because he set up two weight categories. Fans will not respect this because Crawford chose not to go to 168 to prove himself first by directing a mini-key through these three killers:
- David Benavidez
- David Morrell
- Diego Pacheco
What could be the clincher is that Crawford has already said that he will follow Mayweather’s plan by boxing and moving to prevent Canelo from landing his shots. It would be such a boring fight, and the Mexican star probably doesn’t want to chase a runner for 12 laps.
