Terence Crawford and Saul 'Canelo' Alvarez are set to face off in a major boxing match on September 12 in Las Vegas. The fight will bring together two undisputed champions from different weight divisions.
Crawford, the current undisputed welterweight champion, watched Canelo's recent victory over William Scull in Saudi Arabia. He shared his thoughts on the fight with FightHub TV:
"I don't think Canelo has dropped his level. It was more the merit of the style that was presented to him."
Crawford noted how Scull's defensive and mobile approach made it tough for Canelo to land clean shots. Canelo connected with only 56 out of 152 punches thrown. However, Scull couldn't keep up his pace for the entire fight.
For his upcoming bout with Canelo, Crawford plans to use his speed and constant movement. He'll aim to dominate with smart tactics and stay active on defense. Crawford's trainer, Brian 'Bomac' McIntyre, feels confident about their strategy:
"I'm seeing the holes in his game, and I know how to attack him."
Crawford's ability to switch stances and adapt to different styles could give him an edge. He's known for unsettling his opponents with his unique approach.
The promotion for this mega-fight kicked off when Crawford and Canelo came face-to-face in the ring after Canelo's fight in Saudi Arabia. It's a big step for Crawford, who's moving up two weight classes to challenge Canelo.
Canelo remains the favorite in betting houses, but Crawford has a lot on the line. He's aiming to become undisputed champion in a third weight division, which would be a remarkable achievement.
Both fighters have a lot to prove. Crawford wants to show he can hang with the bigger guys, while Canelo aims to cement his legacy against one of the best pound-for-pound fighters in the world. It's shaping up to be a can't-miss event for boxing fans everywhere.
