Floyd officially ended his career in 2017, defeating Conor McGregor by technical knockout in the tenth round. "Bud" is in the final stretch of his career and will likely face Canelo in September, moving up two weight classes above his natural limit. To date, Crawford has held world titles at lightweight, bantamweight, welterweight, welterweight and bantamweight.
Over time, both have left Arum's Top Rank promotional organization in search of bigger money elsewhere. However, the renowned promoter made it clear who would be the clear favorite in such a fight.
"Crawford at the peak of his career would beat Mayweather at the peak of his career. Terence is a unique player, different from the rest. I have no doubt that he would have won this dream fight. There are some things that Crawford does that you just can't prepare for. He is an exceptional boxer with a lot of talent for the sport," Arum stated.
