Rolando ‘Rolly’ Romero interviewed Canelo Alvarez, saying that his fight against the 147-pound Terence Crawford paid an example of how the Mexican star paid out before retirement.
Chase Canelo money?
He says Canelo is just fighting to “make a nice cent” and doesn’t care about his legacy. Romero adds that Alvarez (63-2-2, 39 COs) should fight against David Banavidez, not Crawford. Rolly thinks Canelo and others like him hurt the sport by focusing on money.
“It’s not a cash for Canelo?“Rolly said about Canelo Alvarez’s fight against Terence Crawford.” At least Crawford is fighting for the legacy. Canelo is fighting a 147-pound. Doesn’t it sound like he’s trying to pay out? ‘said Rolando’ Roly ‘Romero Seconds out of box.
It seems obvious that Canelo is struggling against Crawford of 147 pounds. But Alvarez has been on a long cash tour since 2022. The defeat to Dmitri Biscvol has changed Canelo and transforms him into a fighter focusing on easy Gimme fights for pay days.
Look at Canelo’s opposition since its loss of Biblical:
– William Scull
– Edgar Berlanga
– Jaime Munguia
-Jermell Charlo: 154 pounds
– John Ryder
– Gennadiy Golovkin: 40 years old for the trilogy in 2022
Romero: Canelo avoids benavidez
“He’s trying to do everything in his power to make a nice cent. He does not fight for legacy. Why didn’t he fight (David) Benavidez? Why didn’t he fight benavidez? This is legacy. This is the battle that everyone asked for. No one in the world asked Crawford. Everyone asked Benavidez for many years now? ‘
Benavidez is the battle that Canelo should take instead of fighting an outdated 147 pound, pushing 40, relinquishing a year-long dismissal and a lack of performance in his debut in 154. Canelo should have shown a little courage and fought the Mexican monster ‘benavidez five years ago. What Alvarez should have done is to tell Turki Alalshikh that he is not interested in fighting against Crawford, and that he wants Benavidez in Las Vegas on September 13.
There is no problem with Crawford fighting Canelo, but he had to move up to 168 and went through these three trials through fire tests to show that he is worthy:
- David benavidez
- David Morrell
- Christian Milli
“These guys were all paid too much. They don’t deserve it. Canelo’s case is a little different from the other, because he sells at least tickets and pay-per-views. I hope Crawford is cold just because he has no respect for the sport. Crawford at least takes a major risk. ‘
Canelo’s Crawford spectacle of $ 150 million
It is difficult not to agree with Rolly that Crawford is the one who takes a risk and fights with a real goal on September 13. He moves up three divisions for legacy and tries to place himself on the Mount Rushmore of boxing to become the number 1 of all time. The only thing that Canelo is fighting for is the reported check of $ 150 million he will receive for the spectacle.
