Canelo vs. Crawford: Alvarez confident, Crawford Defiant on Fight Strategy on September 13 showdown
Published

Canelo Alvarez looked prepared and confident during a press conference in Riyadh, saying Teukska Crawford that “no” would win the fight on September 13 in Las Vegas.
Interestingly, the challenging Crawford seemed to send a message to Turka Alalshikh, not to mention his name, saying: “I won’t let anyone tell me how to fight.” In other words, if Crawford decides to apply movement, just like his trainer Brian “Bomac” McIntyre mentioned that he would do it. I was afraid of that. Pay attention to the approach to Crawford?
Alvarez confident, crawford defiant
What else can you expect from an aging warrior who jumps two weight classes to challenge Canelo in 168? Turki will be furious if Crawford turns the fight into Tom and Jerry, but it will be too overdue until then. Why did Crawford choose Turki in the world?
The way in which the unquestionable master of the super medium medium weight Alvarez (63-2-2, 39 KO) spoke, it can be said that he overcomes lively daylights from Crawford (41-0, 31 KO), if he comes to the fight and did not escape.
Unlikely
Turki mentioned that in this fight there will be a “bonus” for KO. Of course, this is not something that Crawford will apply because he did not show any power in his recent movement from 147 to 154 in the fight against “Little GGG” Israil Madrimov in August last year. He became bigger, but his power did not rise.
Canelo Alvarez: “It was a fraud for me. I came to fight, but you need two fighters,” said Canelo Alvarez in today’s Start press conference Asked about his thoughts about his last fight with William Scull.
“This fight is great, and for me creating history is my goal. I am very excited about this fight. He is a great warrior, but it is not canelo. I have experience. They focus only on my power, but I have more.
Boxing history Canelo eyes
“I think that this fight will be one of my best. It’s about what I want to create a story. He doesn’t intend to beat me. Don’t worry about it. I think this fight will be in historical books. I know that Turki is in your corner, but it will be complex.
“You’re not different. I don’t have [Crawford won’t run]. The best warrior wins. I expect to do a great fight. I’m just going to do my job. I am the winner. I always think about winning.
Terenca Crawford: “Certainly these belts come back home with me. I will bring more jewelry home. Terenka Crawford will be the first tri -tin -target unquestioned champion. I am a risk and I’m not afraid.
“Every warrior can be knocked out. Canelo has a granite chin. He has been wounded several times, but taking into account the right circumstances, everyone can be knocked out. I always intend to get to a great occasion. This is my moment and I do not let Canelo take him from me.
I thought my fight was a clear victory. I think that this was not what fans expected from me. I am cold with my performance and victory – said Crawford about his controversial win on Israil Madrimov in August last year.
“Regardless of the fact that I will fight and win. I will not let anyone tell you how to fight when I fight all my life. I will not run, I will tell you it. I will be a lot touching.
“I called Canelo because he is the last great warrior of the era, who exceeds us, Floyds, de la Hoyas and Pacquiao. He had the opportunity to fight Miguel Cotto, GGG. I couldn’t take this mega fight. So it’s my moment. I will never say that a man can me,” said Crawford.

Adrien Broner Flight Post leaves comeback hanging in the balance

Adrien Broner has sparked fresh concern after he shared a late-night post from a flight showing multiple drinks as questions continue to mount over his boxing future.
The former four-division world champion posted the clip with the caption, “I’m almost close to Denzel on this,” referring to the film – a comparison that raises its own questions.
The backlash was almost immediate, with comments ranging from mockery to concern as Broner’s latest appearance came days after a tumultuous run that had already cast doubt on his latest comeback attempt.
Some questioned whether the return rumors had died down, while others took a more direct assessment of the current state of affairs. A smaller number urged Broner to peaceful down, but the overall reaction pointed in one direction: uncertainty.
Same pattern, fresh moment
Fasting is not an isolated moment. It follows a pattern in which failures are quickly followed by promises of redemption.
This comes after a messy period in which Broner was already given a “last chance” opportunity to return to the game after admitting he had returned to street life and was asking for one last chance.
Since then, events have unfolded rapidly, from a 48-hour spiral that required intervention to prevent drinking and driving, to further fallout involving those around him. Each moment reinforced the same question: had anything actually changed?
Adrien Broner under pressure
Broner continues to beg, begging for another chance. The final comeback is already approaching the next evening’s moment, when the former champion reaches the age of 37 and is running out of time to make the same promises.
It seems that Don King has become another promoter who has failed to tame “The Problem” who is intent on chasing quick money while living the same lifestyle – it’s getting tiring to repeat it.
For a fighter once on the verge of becoming a superstar, the gap between promise and reality has never been greater.
What will happen next?
There are no longer concerns about whether Broner will be able to return to the ring.
It’s a question of whether he can stay on track long enough to get back on track.
The recording speaks for itself. The reaction was sobering. The question is now elementary – is it the same cycle again?

“I think one or two more fights,” Ramirez told Fight Hub TV when asked about his long-term plans. “I have been practicing this sport for a long time.”
Ramirez, 33, said that while he still wants to continue his career for now, he is already thinking about how his career will end, not how long it can be extended. Ramirez said he has achieved key goals in the sport, including becoming world champion in two divisions, but still wants to perform at the highest level before he retires.
That pursuit begins with Benavidez, a fight that Ramirez believes will define his status and push his name further to the top of the sport.
“I will beat him. That’s my plan, to fight Opetaia,” said Gilberto about his desire to fight former IBF cruiserweight champion Jai Opetaia.
It’s a shoot-for-the-stars plan for Ramirez, but you can’t blame him for wanting to fight Opetaia. The biggest obstacle is not only the fight itself, but also where Jai Opetaia currently sits. Jai is now the face of Dana White’s Zuffa Boxing.
At the same time, Ramirez hinted at one last twist before his retirement. When asked about moving up again, he left the door open to a possible heavyweight fight, even admitting that he may not be the biggest fighter in the division.
“Why not?” Ramirez talked about moving up to heavyweight. “That would be amazing.”
If Zurdo loses to Benavidez, his plan for Opetaia will likely evaporate and he may just go straight to the heavyweight event for one last payday before he suspends them.

Eddie Hearn expects Mayweather vs Pacquiao 2 fight to be canceled and replaced with world title fight
Published

April 28, 2026
The final decision may come after the Floyd Mayweather vs. Manny Pacquiao rematch drama ends.
Earlier this year, it was announced that Mayweather and Pacquiao were set to fight professionally more than 10 years after their first meeting, with the event streaming live on Netflix and taking place on September 19 at The Sphere in Las Vegas.
In recent weeks the duel was in doubt, after Mayweather stated that the fight would instead be an exhibition, while Pacquiao continues to insist that it must be a fully sanctioned fight.
Since it is currently unknown whether this will actually come to fruition, this has probably given the clearest signal that this will no longer happen.
Conversation with FightHypepromoter Eddie Hearn said he thinks Netflix can now focus on the WBC welterweight title fight between Ryan Garcia and Conor Benn, essentially replacing the Mayweather-Pacquiao event.
“It’s all a mess. I’m surprised Netflix got into this whole circus… Netflix is modern to boxing, but they need to be a little more solid in the routine because you can’t actually call the fight and it just falls by the wayside and it just doesn’t look great.”
“NO [I don’t believe it will happen]not now. Netflix is only going to do so many fights and the Benn-Garcia fight is now said to be on September 12 or whenever that happens, so obviously this is the fight to replace Mayweather-Pacquiao.
“If it happened Mayweather-Pacquiao, they are committed to that fight, but if it doesn’t happen they will want another fight and from the sound of it it will be Garcia vs. Benn.”
The world title fight between Garcia and Benn has been widely discussed this month, and if Hearn is right, it could spell the end of any hopes of Mayweather and Pacquiao fighting again.
