Terence Crawford has been linked to several high-profile fights since defeating Errol Spence Jr. last month.
Now the world’s best welterweight, Crawford’s popularity has soared, and one name mentioned is Canelo Alvarez.
The Mexican star faces Jermell Charlo on September 30, but could he face Crawford moving forward?
Canelo, still undoubtedly one of boxing’s best fighters, will face the world’s best 154lbs fighter later this year as Charlo steps up, but would he be interested in Crawford making an even bigger leap?
The weight gap between the two pound-for-pound stars is significant and Canelo has finally spoken out on the potential bout.
“I can’t go down anymore,” said Canelo when speaking to Fight Hub TV on whether he could meet Crawford at catchweight.
“168, but like he says, no one is going to give me credit for that.”
