Amir Khan thinks Terence Crawford will beat Canelo Alvarez in their upcoming fight. The former world champion from Bolton, who's fought both men, shared his prediction in a recent interview.
Canelo and Crawford will face off in Las Vegas this September. They'll be fighting for Canelo's WBC, WBA, and WBO super middleweight titles. It's a big deal because Crawford wants to become a champion in his fifth weight class.
The fight was just announced, and fans are already buzzing about it. Canelo, who's 34 and from Mexico, has been the undisputed super middleweight champ since 2021. He's beaten some tough opponents like Gennady Golovkin, Jermell Charlo, and Jaime Munguia.
Crawford, who's 37 and from Omaha, is moving up in weight for this fight. He's trying to make history by winning a world title in his fifth weight class.
Khan, who lost to both fighters in the past, shared his thoughts in a recent interview. He said:
"I think Crawford in my opinion."
But Khan also pointed out some things that could make the fight interesting. He said size might be a factor, and Canelo has gotten better since their fight. Khan also mentioned that Canelo looked good boxing against Munguia recently.
Even though some people think Canelo might be slowing down because of his age, Khan still sees him as a tough opponent.
The fight is part of Canelo's four-fight deal with Riyadh Season. It's sure to be one of the biggest boxing events of the year.
