Canelo Alvarez met with Turki Al-Shiekh today and said there is “a chance” a fight between him and Terence Crawford will happen. He says he’s always looking for the “best deals.”
Turki is hoping to set up a fight between Alvarez (62-2-2, 39 KOs) and Crawford in 2025 as it is one of the biggest fights that could possibly be made in North America this year. It remains to be seen if he can make that fight.
Canelo looking for “best deals”
Crawford, 37, has not yet said what he will do if he can’t get the fight with Canelo. We know that Terence’s age and fighting at 154 against younger, stronger and bigger fighters will eventually lead to him losing. He almost lost his last fight, his debut at 154 against WBA junior middleweight champion Israil Madrimov on August 3 last year.
“It’s always a chance there. We’ll see, but there’s always a chance to make the best deals, and there’s always the chance,” said Canelo Alvarez. Ring Magazine when asked if a fight between him and Terence Crawford is possible next.
“I think it’s going to be another good fight. Both fighters are good fighters. So, I think both have a chance to win,” Canelo said on the February 22nd rematch between undisputed light heavyweight champion Artur Beterbiev and Dmitri Bivol in Riyadh.
Former division world champion Crawford (41-0, 31 KOs) is looking to challenge Canelo for his unified super middleweight titles this year. He thinks he has the talent to overcome his size disadvantage. Crawford thinks he has enough size and skill to defeat Canelo.
The Mexican star is showing signs of slowing down in his last two fights against Edgar Berlanga and Jaime Munguia. These are fighters that Canelo probably would have knocked out in 2021 and earlier, but were forced to take the 12-round decision to beat them.
