Canelo, Crawford Set for Mega-Fight in Vegas

Canelo Alvarez and Terence Crawford are set to meet for the undisputed super middleweight title on September 13 in Las Vegas, with Netflix broadcasting the fight. Crawford, who is moving up two weight classes, faces concerns from experts like Shane Mosley regarding his lack of size, advancing age, and potential loss of mobility due to age and inactivity. Mosley warns that Crawford's preference for engaging rather than moving could be detrimental against the physically stronger Alvarez. Coach Derrick James contends that Crawford's speed, athleticism, and confidence could trouble Canelo, who must rely on superior timing to succeed. The bout is being compared to past boxing mega-events due to its high stakes and the notable size gap between the fighters. The outcome may depend on whether Crawford's agility and mentality can counter Canelo's physical advantages.
