Turki Alalshikh challenged today the united champion Super Middle weight Canelo Alvarez on stage during a press conference with IBF master William Scull, wanting to answer whether he will capture the last belt needed so that he is unquestioned to get this title for a meeting from Terenka Crawford on September 13.

Avoiding questions

It seemed that Turki wanted Canelo to start marketing the “great fight” early, as he calls it, against Crawford, and he did not intend to do it. Canelo vs. is a real great fight. David Benvidez, not an older, impartial Crawford, who looked terrible in his debut at the age of 154. You can’t blame Canelo for not wanting to be Stuffing like a puppetTurk’s saying wanted.

This is a duel that Turki really wants for some reason, despite the fact that Terenka never fought at the age of 168, he would move around two divisions and cut many pretenders who worked tough for arrows.

If Turki is a traditionalist about an ancient school, he should insist Crawford moved to 168 and gain the title shot against Canelo like warriors in the past. What he does is not an ancient school.

Crawford should go to super middle weight and Run this compact glove To prove that a worthy title shot:

– David Benavidez
– Oslyys Iglesias
– David Morrell
– Diego Pacheco
– Christian Milli

If Crawford defeats all five warriors, he won the title shot against Canelo. This is an ancient school method. In addition, Crawford does not assess the possibility of meeting the King of Division. How would Crawford feel if he had four titles at the age of 154, and the ancient guy from the 140-pound division wanted to move two classes to fight him in one free time to get Pay to retire? He wouldn’t want to do it.

That’s all you can call it. An ancient guy, a bud, with an inflated CV, takes a year off to avoid losing and moves up two weight classes to challenge Canelo for a one -off. This is no different when the former UFC Francis Ngannou champion, in his debut in boxing, fought Tyson Fury in Riyadh – just Pure Circus. These are things at the influential level.

Canelo Deflets

Alvarez refused today’s press conference for the match against SCULL (23-0, 9 KO) on May 3 in Riyjad

Todd Grisham: “Canelo, everyone knows the potential duel from Terenka Crawford is waiting in September. Until then, he decided not to fight, but you said you would fight in May. Why take the risk? “

Canelo Alvarez: “I like to be dynamic. We don’t have a fight in September. We have this fight and then we will see the September fight. But I focus 100% on William Scull. “

Turks Alalshikh: “Hello everyone. You know, I respect the boxing school from Cuba, but now I ask as a fan. My question is about Canelo. There is a shortage of one element from you. On May 3, you will recover it to get on September 12 in Vegas in Great fight [Crawford]? Do you complement the items [i.e., collecting the missing IBF 168-lb belt to become undisputed super middleweight champion].

Canelo: “Hey, ancient. I will look great [Canel chooses not to answer Turki’s leading question to begin an early promotion for the Crawford celebrity fight]. “

Turki: “There is a lack of one item in you. This belt [Turki points towards his Ring Magazine undisputed title]. “

Canelo: “Pas. I have you. Don’t worry.”

Here is one face angle. You can see here, they bring the WBC belt, and Turki shakes his head no! pic.twitter.com/b8iw3sifrs
