Turki Alalshikh on Canelo vs. Crawford Undercard: Presenting juvenile talents at Netflix
Published
1 year agoon
Turki Alalshikh said today that Canelo Alvarez vs. Terenka Crawford is such a great fight that “they do not need much fight on undercard” to September 13. This is the same method that promoters used in the past mega struggle with the participation of stars from the past, especially those in which gigantic bags were paid for the stars.
Undercard Vision Turki
Alalshikh wants to take this opportunity for juvenile talents to present himself to the undercard for the event of the Canelo-Crawford event in Netflix. The warrior manager would contact the TKO group and the decision will be made whether they will be added to the card.
Fighting the card is aimed at introducing fresh talents. This is not about 50-50 fights. Has Dana White UFC similar to this. This is what he did with UFC, with one good fight in the main event and approach with fights for future fighters.
White promotes the Canelo-Crawford event. So it is understandable why Undercard uses the same model he has been using in UFC for years. Some fans may like this approach while others do not. Those who have become accustomed to seeing competitive fights on the basics may not be satisfied with the given approach.
In connection with the display of the event in Netflix, fans that are not boxes will make up for the difference from conventional ones, who may not be excited to buy an event with a card filled with little -known perspectives.
Is boxing Canelo-Crawford the largest?
It also boils down to how many fans Canelo vs. Crawford. Turki refers to the fight as “The biggest fight in boxing” In the last 10 years, but many people do not agree. This fight is not seen as the greatest.
They are two older fighters approaching the end of their careers, coming out of terrible performances against William Scull and Israil Madrimov. Crawford has been fighting only once a year since 2020 and has never been a draw during his career. It is probably less popular than warriors, such as Ryan Garcia, Devin Haney and Teofimo Lopez.
Although Crawford captured world titles in four weight classes, his biography is mediocre, filled with bangs and elderly dinosaurs. He waited too long to go to 154 and fought fighters at an average level of 147. He defeated Errola Spence’s car crash and next to his main Shawn Porter in welterweight, but he escaped from the division when Jaron Ennis wanted to shoot at the motor title.
Crawford’s career reflects his career Adrien “The Problem” Bronerwho also captured four division titles and fought with a smaller opposition, such as Bud, to capture his belts. It is not clear how long Alalshikh was a box of boxing. If he was a free fan so far, it makes sense why he is so in love with Crawford.
Sees what many naive, free fans Make when they look at Crawford’s confirms. “They don’t see that Crawford fought the second level warriors to capture these lanes and create his record 41-0. You must be a Hardcore fan again to see that Crawford has a feeble, plastic record and that he is false gold. It’s smoke and mirrors with bud.
Choosing the fight Crawford Alalshikh Crawford
Turki likes Crawford. That is why he is fighting Canelo. This is his preference. Usually, promoters combine fights between warriors who know that boxing audience is willing to see. In this case, it is a fight that Turki likes, not society.
When you have money to combine strange fights, you can do everything. We saw Anthony Joshua and Tyson Fury fight the former weighty UFC Francis Ngannou. It was Total. Now that. Canelo fighting crawford.
They are no longer able to overcome the best fighters in their weight classes and keep their careers together only thanks to artificial funds, such as careful creation and avoiding hazardous opposition that would defeat them.
For example, Canelo will not fight David Benavidez or David Morrell. For his part, Crawford decided not to fight Bakhram Muratazaliev, Vergil Ortiz Jr. and Sebastian Fund. We know what result Crawford fought with these three warriors. They would reveal him. These are warriors when you fight when you are juvenile and vigorous, not elderly, looking for money to retire.
Recent boxing talents platform
“This is the biggest fight in boxing and history over the past 10 years and maybe more,” said Turki Alalshikh to mediaSpeaking of the Canelo Alvarez vs. competition Terenka Crawford on September 13. “This is a really great opportunity for talent in boxing. We will do the whole talent card because we have the biggest fight.
“We don’t need a great fight based on the card. We’ll give you a chance for talent for this purpose. If you think you’re ready for a Canelo-Crawford pad, come with us, or maybe you’ll have a chance,” said Turki.

Tim Bradley explains why Lamont Roach can beat William Zepeda

Bradley says Roach’s experience against pressure players and southpaws will give him an advantage on August 1
Tim Bradley thinks Lamont Roach Jr. he is the player best placed to make William Zepeda lose. In a speech on his YouTube channel, Bradley selected Roach as the winner of the vacant WBC lightweight title on August 1 and cited the fight’s stylistic advantages as a key factor.
“I’m picking Roach to win this fight,” Bradley said on his channel. “I think it’s a perfect match in style. I think Roach fights southpaws better than orthodox fighters.”
Roach comes into the fight coming off a draw with Isaac “Pitbull” Cruz and a contentious draw with Gervonta Davis, as well as two physically demanding fights against high-pressure fighters that Bradley says has prepared him for Zepeda’s relentless approach.
“I think he fought one of the best southpaws in the world in Tank Davis. And he did damn well against him,” Bradley said. “He wasn’t scared by the force of the impact.”
Bradley believes Roach has the tools needed to neutralize Zepeda’s pressure.
“When guys who like to get forward and be aggressive, nine times out of 10 they don’t like being tackled,” Bradley said. “Roach has the ability to do it. He has the knowledge and the IQ to be able to do it. And if he does it, he will win this fight.”
Bradley also cautioned that Roach cannot afford to leave matters in the judges’ hands, arguing that he needs to create more separation than in recent draws with Isaac Cruz and Gervonta Davis.

Roy Jones Jr Says He’ll Return to Fighting One Fighter If He Gets an Eight-Figure Salary: ‘It’ll Make Me Prepare’
Published

June 13, 2026
Roy Jones Jr has announced his price and is demanding an eight-figure purse if he is to make it through the ropes.
At his peak, the American became one of the best players to ever grace the sport, and his breathtaking speed and overall physical prowess made him seem almost unbeatable.
After winning world titles at middleweight, super middleweight and airy heavyweight, Jones even moved up to heavyweight and dethroned John Ruiz to win the WBA belt in 2003.
The pound-for-pound legend retired in 2018, when many thought his best days were behind him, only to take it to the next level exhibition match with Mike Tyson in 2020
Although it was a non-contest, many believed that Tyson outplayed Jones, who then returned professionally against Anthony Pettis and lost an eight-round decision to the former UFC champion in 2023.
Since then, the 57-year-old has remained on the safer side of the competition, but is now eyeing another comeback, this time against Misfits boxer Tommy Fury.
Having delved into the power side of the sport following previous professional victories over Jake Paul and KSI, Fury is now preparing to face former World’s Strongest Man Eddie Hall.
I’m talking to Betting showroomJones said he would only be willing to challenge the 27-year-old if he was handsomely rewarded for his troubles.
“Is me vs. Tommy Fury dead? Nothing is dead forever. Roy Jones is still alive. Tommy Fury is still alive. Who knows? For the right money, it would make me go to the gym to get ready.”
“If they give me $10 million of course. Ten and more, yes. If they don’t give me $10 million and more, then no, I’m not wasting my time.”
Fury’s six-round exhibition match with Hall will take place later today at the Manchester Arena, although the result will not affect his professional record of 11-0 (4 KO).
“There are a confined number of fights and he can’t fight every fighter. So why don’t you consider that [Iglesias and Sheeraz] think about who wants to be at the front of the line,” Kellerman said on InsideRingShow.
Kellerman rejected the idea that Canelo was firing any of the fighters.
“He’s not saying he’s ignoring Sheeraz and Iglesias. In fact, he just gave them a path. He said, ‘I’m fighting Mbilli.’ You are fighting each other. This is not a duck. This is about business,” Kellerman said.
Sheeraz has already made it clear that he has no interest in following the route proposed by Canelo. Responding to a suggestion from an earlier interview, the British fighter said he respected Alvarez but would not allow another boxer to dictate his career decisions.
A fight between Sheeraz and Iglesias could answer many of the remaining questions about both men.
Canelo is preparing to fight Mbilli, a fighter widely viewed as one of the most threatening fighters in the division due to his constant pressure and furious attacks. Meanwhile, Sheeraz has had two fights since moving up to 168 pounds, a fight against Edgar Berlanga, who he stopped in July 2025 after Canelo had already beaten him a year earlier, and 39-year-old Al Begic for the vacant WBO title.
A fight between Sheeraz and Iglesias could eliminate many of the questions that still haunt both men. Sheeraz would have the opportunity to silence critics who believe his super middleweight resume is slim, while Iglesias could reaffirm a growing reputation that has led some fans to consider him the division’s boogeyman.
The winner would pose a bigger and more marketable challenge. Instead of facing Sheeraz immediately after his victory over Begic, Alvarez could face an opponent who had a decisive victory over another world champion, adding more significance to what could be one of the final marquee fights of his career.
