Sergio Mora says Canelo Alvarez’s loss of Terence Crawford is a sign that his body is sending him a message to retire.
Commentator Mora mentions that Canelo (63-3-2, 39 COs) has achieved a lot in his 20-year career and is close to a $ 1 billion fortune. He should not feel ashamed.
“The end is near”
“This means that the end is near for a wonderful champion and a wonderful career like Canelo Alvarez. The time has caught him. His body tells him that his time is close,” Sergio Mora said DaznTalk about Canelo Alvarez approaching after losing last month against Terence Crawford on September 13.
Opposition masked the decline
I don’t know if “the Latin snake” mora retained the score, but Canelo has faded for years since 2022. He could cover it by disguising his decline by fighting exclusively soft opposition.
Even Crawford was a Gimme, safety-first guy who would be out of his depths if he fought the top five contenders at 168.

Billionaire legacy secured
“He is almost a billionaire and is set up for lifeAnd his children are ready for life, ”says Mora.
Canelo has been rich for years, but his wealth has gone through the roof since he signed a reported four -game contract with Turki Alalshikh for an estimated $ 400 million.
Turki’s golden contract
Before Canelo signed his profitable agreement with Dazn, its net worth is estimated to be between $ 250 million and $ 300 million. So, when or if Alvarez completes his contract with Turki, he may be worth as much as $ 700 million.
Turki has already said he wants to keep working with Canelo after his contract ended, which means he can easily pump his net worth to one billion, as long as he is selective in whom he faces.
So far, Alvarez has fought two fights against William Scull and Terence Crawford. The last two will come in 2026, provided he is healthy enough to fight and not retire from shame after his last performance against Crawford.
No risk, big payday
It’s not just Canelo who makes money over the fist. Crawford also attracts millions, fights on Turki Alalshikh’s cards and takes no risks by fighting against any of the prime elite fighters that would put the spotlight on its true ability.
Terence would have been invented some time ago, just like Canelo, if he fought against the Apex fighters by 154, 160 and 168. He and Canelo are One of a kind. I predict that we see that Crawford takes the same safe, soft choices as the Mexican star Alvarez to win him until the end of his career. He will not be thrown to the wolves in his remaining battles on his contract with Turki.
