Fernando Vargas Jr. It predicts a knockout victory for Canelo Alvarez nad Teupers Crawford. Junior Medium Weight Perspective Vargas Jr. He says “Weight” for Crawford (41-0, 31 KO), and he increased from 147 to 168 to challenge Canelo (63-2-2, 39 KO) for his unquestioned championship in a super-medical scale on September 13 at the Stadium allegian in Las Vegas.
Body weight difference coefficient
37 -year -old Crawford is technically rising from 154, but he was in this division only a year ago. He did not look golden in this fight with Israil Madrimov. It was close enough to justify the rematch. Despite the performance from the splendor of the razor Crawford, Turki Alalshikh continued to go forward and set for him a superfigure against Canelo two divisions until 168. He will not be handicapped by Terenca to assist him.
“Crawford is forceful. You know one of these gaunt, forceful guys? Sparring him and I just thought I was able to move him a little,” said Fernando Vargas Jr. A younger medium weight perspective, to Shawn Porter YouTube Channel, talking about fantasy fight canelo vs. Crawford fantasy. “I just feel that Canelo can frustrate. You saw Canelo raising people and just frustrated.”
The incident involving the Canelo’s employ of the opponent from frustration during his career took place in the 11th round of his clash with the WBA Airy Heavyweight Dmitry Bivol champion on May 7, 2022. Bivol threw a blow and fell to the back of Canelo, who leaned low to avoid shot. Then Canelo straightened to remove Bivol from his back. It seemed that it was an irritation from Alvarez from having Bivol on him with all his weight.
“I think it will be a tough fight, but I feel Canelo, he should stop him in the 10th or 11th round. This is my opinion. Weight. Is it almost three classes of weight?” said Vargas Jr. o Crawford, essentially an enhance from 147 to 168. “ON” [Terence] I don’t want to lose at all. He is a competitor. I think Canelo [wins]. You don’t think he’ll hit him [Crawford] in the shoulder? “
Where Canelo can stop Crawford if the nebrasko’s Tubylca decides to defend at some point in the fight, wanting to impress a enormous crowd at the Allegiant or Turki Alalshikh stadium. In the last fight of Crawford with Israil Madrimov he often traded with him and made huge shots. He had to because Madrimov was sent by Madrimov for most of the first half of the fight. Crawford does not have much pressure so that he does not play safely, considering that Turki committed him not to support the fight of “Tom and Jerry” during his events. This means he wants to act. If Crawford decides to ignore this directive, he could dissatisfied Turks and pays a lot of money to him.
Super one -sided porter forecast
“Both of these guys look at someone with whom they can’t make a mistake,” said Shawn Porter in his podcast Porterway about Crawford and Canelo. “I don’t think this fight will go back there and I think it will go one way or the other. Super -unilateral. The one who has the ability to make corrections is Crawford. We have never seen Canelo did anything else. Bud has the ability to change some things to go the other way – said Porter.
Porter’s forecasting by the “super one -sided” fight on September 13 means that he believes that Crawford will dominate Canelo, which he mentioned in several other interviews that he won Terenca.
In order for Crawford to beat Canelo in one -sided fashion, it means that he will probably fly it because he showed no power or ability to do it in his last fight, rising from 147 to 154 to face the WBA Madrior Madrimov champion a year ago, 3 August 2024, Avanesian and other warriors.

An overhaul of the Ali Act could push tiny boxing promoters out of business
Published

March 12, 2026
Proposed changes to the Muhammad Ali Boxing Reform Act are gaining attention in Washington, but some industry officials say the changes could make it more tough for smaller promoters to continue to host boxing events across the United States in many local markets across the country.
The legislation, known as the Muhammad Ali American Boxing Revival Act of 2026, includes several fresh provisions related to medical supervision and fighter protection. The proposal called for higher injury insurance, required ambulance and medical staff at events, expanded drug testing and a higher minimum pay for players.
Supporters say the changes will improve safety standards in boxing. Others believe the additional requirements could raise the costs of promoting fights.
Enormous promotional companies with powerful financial resources would probably be able to bear the higher costs. Smaller organizers who host club shows and prospect cards tend to make much less money, and their events depend on smaller venues and regional audiences to sustain them.
Under the proposal, promoters would be required to carry at least $50,000 in insurance against player injuries and $15,000 in the event of accidental death. The minimum fighter pay will also boost from $150 per round to $200 per round, and drug testing will boost for many fights.
Some boxing insiders say these extra expenses could make it more tough for smaller promoters to put on shows. Fewer local fight cards may reduce opportunities for youthful fighters trying to build their records early in their careers.
The proposal has already passed through committee in the House and is expected to go to a vote in the House soon. If the bill is approved there, it would still have to pass the Senate before reaching the president’s desk. Lawmakers continue to debate how the changes could impact boxing’s business structure while strengthening protections for fighters across the sport.

‘How can he ignore me?’: Usyk’s must-see challenger reacts to being left off the hit list
Published
3 hours agoon
March 12, 2026
Oleksandr Usyk listed his ideal last three fights, starting with Rico Verhoeven in May, then winner Fabio Wardley vs. Daniel Dubois, and ending with a trilogy fight with the returning Tyson Fury.
Only the fight against Verhoeven is certain – which is controversial for Usyk’s WBC heavyweight title – and the remaining fights are still to be negotiated, but interim champion and mandatory challenger Agit Kabayel seriously questions that list.
In a conversation on Instagram, the German heavyweight said:
“My parents always told me to stay humble and respectful. But I can no longer accept being ignored. I deserve to fight for the title.”
In an interview with RTL/ntv and sport.de, Kabayel expanded on this point, saying that Usyk’s plan proves that “he is only interested in money.”
“I always respected Usyk very much for his sporting achievements and I said: ‘Hey, he’s not afraid of challenges and he keeps his words.’ But he is only interested in money; everything else doesn’t interest him. Now I noticed it again very clearly.
“How can he not name the number one in the rankings, his mandatory challenger? It’s just melancholy that he would rather fight Dubois or Fury for a third time, even though he has already beaten them both twice.”
Kabayel – who himself came to a draw in his last fight against Daniel Knyba – fully deserves a chance to win the full world title by defeating Arslanbek Makhmudov, Frank Sanchez and Zhilei Zhang to claim the WBC interim belt. Usyk has been cleared by the sanctioning body to fight him after Verhoeven, but the Ukrainian appears likely to vacate the belt or lobby for an undisputed fight against the winner of Wardley and Dubois.
Usyk is in danger of losing not only the WBC belt, but also the IBF and WBA belts. Neither promotion has commented on the Verhoeven fight and could very well have opted to get rid of Usyk rather than follow the WBC route of putting their belt on the line, which was met with extreme fan backlash.

Richard Torrez Jr is waiting because Frank Sanchez’s Eliminator is delayed

Richard Torrez Jr’s road to a fight for the IBF heavyweight title was delayed after Frank Sanchez suffered a knee injury that forced their scheduled eliminator to withdraw from the March 28 event in Las Vegas. The fight was considered a key move in the IBF rankings, with the winner expected to move into mandatory challenger territory.
Top executive Carl Moretti confirmed that Torrez will not remain on the Fundora-Thurman card at MGM Grand after the eliminator is removed. The fight was scheduled to go live on pay-per-view, but our focus is now on setting a fresh date for when Sanchez can return to training.
Dan Rafael reported that the fight is currently scheduled for May 30 on the undercard of the proposed Devin Haney vs. Rolando Romero. This event has not yet been finalized and the heavyweight eliminator depends on both Sanchez’s recovery and confirmation of his planned appearance.
Torrez (14-0, 12 KO) last fought in November, defeating Tomas Salek in the first round in Mexico. The 26-year-old southpaw from Tulare, California, turned professional in 2022 after winning a silver medal at the Tokyo Olympics and has quickly risen through the ranks since signing with Top Rank.
Sanchez (25-1, 18 KO) is struggling with inflammation in his surgically repaired right knee. The 33-year-old Cuban heavyweight underwent arthroscopic surgery in June 2024 as a result of injuries suffered around the same year in his seventh-round knockout loss to Agit Kabayel.
The injury occurred during a long period of inactivity for Sanchez, who has fought only once since losing to Kabayel, defeating Ramon Olivas Echeverria in three rounds in February 2025.
The target date of May does not guarantee that the eliminator will move forward smoothly. Sanchez has only fought once since undergoing knee surgery in 2024, and now he is experiencing inflammation of the same joint again during training. If an injury prevents him from completing another camp, the IBF qualifier could face another delay, leaving Torrez waiting even longer for a fight that could move him into the must-see position.
The delay leaves the IBF eliminator question unresolved for now, and Torrez remains waiting for an opportunity that could bring him closer to a title fight.
