Terenka Crawford reveals three fighters better than Canelo Alvarez
Terenka Crawford is preparing for the biggest challenge in his career when he faces Canelo Alvarez.
Crawford moves up two weight classes to face Canelo for The unquestionable crown of a super medium weight At the Allegian stadium in Las Vegas, on September 13, live in Netflix.
The victory of a man from Omah would improve his references as the greatest warrior of his generation and gave him recognition for his status as great.
The 37-year-old was asked by Ring magazine To be mute until he heard a better warrior than Alvarez.
Crawford was deprived of the former united champion of a super medium weight, Carl Froch, world champion in three expiry, Felix Trinidad and Chris Eubank Jr, but he did not put any of them over the great Mexican.
Four world champions also rejected the possibility of placing the Hall of Fame InDuctees Manny Pacquiao and Bernard Hopkins on Alvarez, as well as the former unquestionable master of lithe heavyweight, Artur Beterbieva.
However, Crawford called Oscar de la Hoya, Dmitry Bivol and Floyd Mayweather JR as fighters better than his upcoming opponent.
If “Bud” defeated Alvarez, he would become a third man for Mayweather and Bivol, who will keep their victory over the 35-year-old.

Alvarez, who regained the undisputed crown of super medium -sized after defeating William Scull in May, claimed that Crawford was a better warrior than Mayweather.
“I think Crawford is a bit better than Mayweather,” said Canelo.
“But Canelo has a lot of experience now.
“I don’t want to compare this fight with other fights.
“I think this fight is one of the best fights in the history of boxing.”
Crawford would be out of the ring for over a year before he enters the ring against Alvarez, not fighting from the unanimous decision of victory over Israil Madrimov to capture the title WBA Super Welter weight in August.
The 37-year-old noted 31 knockouts from his 41 wins and believes that he is able to cause defeat throughout Alvarez, who has never been detained in his career 67.
“I’m not going there, wanting to throw away Canelo,” he said Manouk Akopyan.
“Can it happen? Yes, absolutely.
“When I look at Canelo, he is a smaller, bigger guy rising to divisions.
“Because these great guys are slower. So they can catch him, but he can see it at the last minute.

“They can catch him with a strenuous shot, but he is able to roll and reverse because it comes from a smaller class, which was faster, was sharper.
“I come from a smaller class, which is faster and sharper.
“So if he is hit with a acute blow that he does not see, he is definitely able to be hurt.
“He is not a machine, he is a man like me.”

On Wednesday, Lewis Crocker heads to Australia to defend his IBF welterweight world title against Liam Paro for the first time.
Crocker will face Paro at the Pat Rafter Arena in Queensland, live on DAZN in the UK and Kayo Sports in Australia.
Crocker (22-0, 11 KO) became world champion in September, defeating Paddy Donovan twice before winning the rematch by split decision.
Man from Belfast recorded his second victory over Donovan after the first victory in March last year, and his rival was disqualified for hitting him after the bell.
Paro (27-1, 16 KO) is trying to become a world champion in two weight categories, having previously reigned in the super-lightweight division.
The 30-year-old won the title with a unanimous decision victory over Subriel Matias in Puerto Rico before winning the belt in his first defense against Richardson Hitchins.
The Australian has since won twice, overtaking David Papot in his last appearance in September.
McKean meets Taliva
Heavyweight Demsey McKean will look to continue his rebuild when he faces Liam Talivaa for the vacant IBF Pan Pacific title.
McKean (24-2, 16 KO) had his career cut miniature after a last-round loss to Filip Hrgovic, followed by a brutal first-round loss to Moses Itauma.

The 35-year-old southpaw returned to winning ways with back-to-back stoppage victories.
Talivaa (8-2, 4 KO) last won the IBF Oceania-Orient title, defeating Faiga Opelu by first-round stoppage.
Undercard remaining
At cruiserweight, Luke Modini (13-0, 11 KO) will likely need distance to beat Peng Qu (17-2-1, 12 KO), while Riley Candy (8-1, 5 KO) could stop Nathan Watson (11-3, 3 KO) at super middleweight.
Vegas Larfield (13-1, 9 KO) can hand Shamal Ram Anuj (11-8, 8 KO) his fourth defeat in a row in a featherweight clash.
Heavyweight Nelson Asofa-Solomon (2-0, 2 KO) can secure a third straight knockout over debutant George Burgess, and Stevan Ivic (8-0-1, 2 KO) can do the same against Caleb Tialu (3-7, 3 KO), also a heavyweight.
Prospective super welterweight fighter Jack Javed (1-0) should overtake Lance McDonald (1-5-1, 1 KO).
