Two Nights Before the Fight, Canelo Alvarez’s Trainer Highlights Floyd Mayweather Bout to Divulge Possible Terence Crawford Fight Story

The stage is adorned as Canelo Alvarez decks up to battle Jermell Charlo on the 3oth of September. Moreover, defeating Jermell Charlo could pave the way for a match between Canelo Alvarez and Terence Crawford. While Crawford is intrigued by the prospect, Alvarez seems less keen on facing the boxer from Omaha. Alvarez believes that Crawford’s only significant victory is over Errol Spence Jr., a notion that Crawford labels as “delusional”

Additionally, the idea of this bout is gaining traction among notable figures in the boxing world. However, recently, a new voice has emerged in the myriad of opinions. This belongs to the trainer of ‘Cinnamon,’ Eddie Reynoso. In a recent interview with Fight Hype, Reynoso discussed his views on the potential Crawford fight with Canelo. Furthermore, a unique comparison with the Mexican Boxer’s renowned Floyd Mayweather fight might raise the prospects of the bout.

What is the view of Alvarez’s trainer about the Terence Crawford fight?

Reynoso asserted that Alvarez has successfully moved up weight categories, ever since his bout with Floyd Mayweather. He highlighted Alvarez’s triumphant ascension through four weight classes since his super welterweight beginnings, hinting that Crawford could come up to Super Middleweight as well. Furthermore, Reynoso contends that a match with Terence Crawford would hold particular significance for ‘Bud’. He underscores the vital role of confidence in pursuing such a high-stakes fight.

As he said (as translated by Google), “In the records that I have from the preparations when we fought with Floyd Mayweather, he walked and started the camps at a certain weight, and now it’s the same. What he did was move up from category to category. We have moved up four categories since super welterweight, so I don’t see why he can’t move up as well. This fight would make more sense for, let’s say, Terence Crawford. The important thing is that he has confidence, so let’s go, let’s see.”

Furthermore, world champion boxer Shakur Stevenson thinks that Crawford can emerge victorious  against Alvarez.

‘Sugar’ backs ‘Bud’ against Canelo

In an interview with Boxing Scene, Shakur Stevenson made a bold assertion that Terence Crawford has the skills to defeat Canelo. This audacious statement is noteworthy because Crawford has never competed in Canelo’s 168-pound super middleweight class. Nonetheless, Stevenson maintains that Crawford’s exceptional ring prowess warrants a title opportunity.

He also urged Crawford to ascend weight classes and challenge formidable opponents like David Morrell Jr., David Benavidez, Caleb Plant, and Demetrius Andrade. Furthermore, Stevenson envisioned a match between Crawford and the victor of the Canelo-Charlo fight, citing their comparable accolades as a perfect matchup. He also revealed that his prediction of a Crawford win over Canelo dates back to Crawford’s fight with Shawn Porter.
