Alvarez fights Crawford Sept.13
Canelo Álvarez and Terence Crawford reportedly weighed in a pound beneath the 168 tremendous middleweight degree at this time in Las Vegas, NV.
The foolish ceremonial weigh-in will probably be staged tonight. At the moment’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 yr 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 had been fascinating. Naoya Inoue fights in just a few days. David Benavidez continues to impress.
The month of August had some fights, however not any massive ones.
Canelo Álvarez versus Terence Crawford is the occasion/struggle of the yr.
Alvarez, 35, is a two-time undisputed tremendous middleweight champion. He reclaimed the IBF title earlier this yr with a boring victory over William Scull.His expertise seem like eroding after nearly 70 fights and twenty years within the ring, however I’m considering Alvarez will probably 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 received all 41 of his fights, 31 by knockout. He’s good and imply.
I anticipate a gradual burner with the early rounds being a chess match. After – a struggle may escape.
