Canelo Alvarez smashed Muhammad Ali’s over 40-year record on the night he ended his most ‘hated’ opponent’s career

Canelo Alvarez smashed Muhammad Ali’s over 40-year record on the night he ended his most ‘hated’ opponent’s career

Canelo Alvarez has faced some incredible opponents during his career.

Alvarez may not have named Gennady Golovkin as the hardest hitter he’s faced but it’s rivalries like that which have helped turn him into one of the sport’s top stars.

There doesn’t appear to be any bad blood between him and Terence Crawford ahead of their huge super fight on September 13.

While Crawford has also shown that he thrives under the brightest lights, the same can be said for his next opponent and that’s exactly why this has been a dream matchup for so long.

Alvarez may not always have personal issues with his opponents but that certainly wasn’t the case when he faced off with an undefeated opponent in 2021 following a war of words.

While the matchup was competitive, it came to an end in the eighth round when Saunders’ team threw in the

Canelo Alvarez earned highest career purse despite suffering shock loss to pound-for-pound great in history-making fight

Throughout his career, Canelo Alvarez has fought several all-time greats and made a lot of money along the way.

On September 13, Canelo Alvarez will return to the boxing ring for the first time since earlier this year when he takes on Terence Crawford in one of the biggest fights in recent memory.

The event will be the inaugural event by Dana White and his new boxing promotion TKO Boxing, after he and Turki Alalshikh announced their historic partnership at the start of the year.

And anticipation is building high ahead of the undisputed super middleweight matchup, and earlier this year during the press conference, White had to step in to break up a near-brawl.

Both fighters will undoubtedly be earning a huge purse for the super fight, despite the result of the fight, which Canelo knows very well about.

Former UFC title challenger books Noche return after losing undefeated record and suffering gruesome injury

Noche UFC has received another big matchup as two former title challengers book a rescheduled bout.

The event is sure to be overshadowed by Canelo Alvarez versus Terence Crawford, which Dana White is also promoting on the same night.

That doesn’t mean that it’s going to go completely under the radar though, even after a change of location and the fact that it’s now set to be a Fight Night card.

Diego Lopes facing Jean Silva in the main event looks to be an all-action featherweight headliner that is sure to close the show in style.

The likes of Brandon Moreno have also registered their interest in fighting on September 13 before a different high stakes clash was made official.

Terence ‘Bud’ Crawford
Shrugs Off Underdog Label
‘Odds Can’t Fight For’ Canelo!!!

Terence Crawford‘s an underdog vs. Canelo Álvarez for the first time in over a decade … but he’s not sweating the unfamiliar label, telling TMZ Sports betting odds won’t be the ones fighting him in the ring.

The thrilling boxing showdown between Bud and his rival is set to take place on September 13 at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas … and somewhat surprisingly, 41-0 Crawford is not the favorite.

It marks the first time since his 2013 bout against Breidis Prescott that gamblers are siding elsewhere … but when we talked to him about that this week, he shrugged it off.

“It definitely don’t matter,” said 37-year-old Crawford, who’s coming off a huge win over Errol Spence. “The odds can’t fight for him. It is what it is.”

One reason fans may favor Canelo is the size difference. Crawford is slightly taller and has a longer reach, but Álvarez carries more weight — something Bud is anticipating Álvarez will use to his advantage.

Terence Crawford Risks It All With Bold Move Despite Canelo Alvarez’s Weight Advantage

“People come to spend money to see great fights and if the other fighter comes to run on the night and doesn’t make a good fight, it’s deception,” Canelo Alvarez told reporters during the press tour for his upcoming bout. With HE Alalshikh also expressing frustration over what he calls “Tom and Jerry fights,” it’s clear that expectations are sky-high for the September 13 showdown between Canelo Alvarez and Terence Crawford at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas. Despite Canelo being the two-time undisputed super middleweight champion, Bud is making a bold move by jumping up two weight classes without any sort of rehydration clause in place.

Ring Magazine shared the 37-year-old’s perspective regarding the risky move in an Instagram post captioned: “Terence Crawford doesn’t want any stipulations to discredit a potential win vs Canelo Alvarez 😤.” Although Crawford is the naturally smaller man, he revealed there will be no weight restrictions on Canelo Alvarez on fight night. Speaking to reporters in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, the Omaha native explained his decision to forgo catchweight or rehydration clauses. His reason? “Because I want him at his best.”
