Saul 'Canelo' Alvarez and Terence Crawford are set to face off in a major boxing match on September 13 in Las Vegas. The fight has got experts talking, with many now seeing Crawford as a real threat to Alvarez, despite the Mexican being the favorite.
Crawford, known as 'Bud', has proven himself as an undisputed champion in three different weight classes. His technique, ring smarts, and ability to adapt during fights have made him a force to be reckoned with. But he'll face a big challenge against Canelo, who's naturally bigger.
The match-up between these two undisputed champions is shaping up to be one of the year's most important fights. Both men have a lot on the line, from proving their skills to cementing their legacies in the sport.
Word on the street is that Canelo plans to bring in Jaron Ennis as a sparring partner. Ennis' style is said to be similar to Crawford's, which could help Canelo prepare for what he'll face in the ring.
WBC lightweight champion Shakur Stevenson shared his thoughts on the fight in a chat with The Ring. He's backing Crawford to win:
"I think Bud is going to blow Canelo away. Crawford has all the tools to beat him. The weight difference won't matter much against Canelo. If Canelo pushes Crawford, he might end up breaking him."
As the fight date gets closer, fans and experts alike will keep debating who'll come out on top. Will it be Canelo's power and experience or Crawford's skill and adaptability? We'll find out on September 13 in Las Vegas.
