Crawford ready to fight Canelo at catchweight

Terence Crawford (40-0, 31 KOs) became the welterweight king, but is ready to move up to a heavier weight category. Some boxing fans are waiting for his duel with Jaron Ennis (31-0, 28 KOs), but Bud himself aims much higher.

The American has previously stated that he will finish his journey in the first middleweight and does not intend to rise higher. However, several days passed, and he already announced a possible collision with Saul Alvarez (59-2-2, 39 KOs), of course, if both sides make concessions.

Canelo is the undisputed super middleweight champion. The difference between these divisions is 9.5 kilograms. Moreover, the Mexican gains a lot between fights. So Crawford proposed a contract limit of 158 pounds, or 71.65 kg.

“Fighting Ennis will get me nowhere. If I beat him, skeptics will say that he is too young and was not ready. I want to go down in history, so I look at Jermell Charlo. I am also open to Canelo, but within 158 pounds,” said Crawford.
