Canelo vs Crawford: Epic Undefeated Super-Middleweight Championship Bout Preview
In a rather secretive affair in Las Vegas, Terence Crawford has matched the weigh-in figures of Canelo Alvarez ahead of their much-anticipated undefeatable super-middleweight championship bout.
The anticipation for Saturday's clash reached a peak as Crawford, daringly stepping two divisions higher than he's ever competed, registered a weight of 167.5lb at Friday's weigh-in. This was a mere 0.5lb under the limit but notably, equal to what Canelo tipped the scales at.
The weigh-in, shrouded in exclusivity, was held away from the public eye, with details and footage later made available online for fans and affirmed to journalists.
Canelo, a seasoned combatant in the super-middleweight class and a two-time undisputed champion at 168lb, faces a spirited challenge from Crawford. Up until now, Crawford has not only been undisputed in the super-lightweight and welterweight divisions but also aims to etch his name in history by triumphing over Canelo. A victory would crown him the first boxer in the modern era to become a three-weight undisputed champion.
Both fighters boast a commendable record of holding world titles across four weight classes. Crawford, especially, has demonstrated significant versatility, having fought as light as 135lb. As they head towards the ring with less than a day remaining, the 37-year-old American stands on equal footing with 35-year-old Canelo in terms of weight.
An intriguing aspect of this match is the absence of a rehydration clause, leaving room for both fighters to gain weight post-weigh-in. This scenario could potentially favour Canelo, known for his naturally more substantial frame, although Crawford's height advantage remains noteworthy.
The build-up to the fight included a press conference at the T-Mobile Arena on Thursday, where Crawford was questioned about his readiness to face “Mexican power” by a Mexican journalist. Crawford's response was one of confidence and a hint of humour, underscoring his readiness to both receive and deliver in the ring.
As both fighters prepare for an epic showdown at Allegiant Stadium, fans and enthusiasts are poised for a battle that promises not just to test their physical limits but also their tactical acumen and hunger for greatness.
