Terence Crawford has been linked to multiple fights since defeating Errol Spence last year, with the most intriguing one being a bout with Canelo Alvarez.
Crawford became the undisputed world champion at welterweight by beating Spence, but the majority of fights he’s been mentioned in occur in bigger weight classes.
With Crawford atop of most pound-for-pound lists, a fight with Canelo would see two of the sport’s best fighters go at it.
The Nebraska man would have to jump up three weight classes to secure the bout, but he’s got no issue doing that after admitting he’d be open to testing himself against the Mexican icon.
“Me and Canelo have never talked about fighting,” said Crawford when speaking to FightHype regarding the contest.
“Yeah, that’s a fight that I would take in a heartbeat, and I would look forward to taking it. It’s always possible.”
