WBC lightweight champion Shakur Stevenson is the latest fighter to give his prediction for the mega-fight between Saul 'Canelo' Alvarez and Terence Crawford.
A fight between Alvarez and Crawford is supposedly scheduled for September which will see two pound-for-pound greats go head-to-head.
For Crawford it's a chance for the two-weight undisputed champion to continue deying expectations by jumping up two weight classes, from super welterweight to super middleweight, to face the Mexican.

To some, this huge jump in weight is being seen as a major disadvantage, but Stevenson believes that Crawford will still be able to outbox Alvarez when they clash.
"Terence outboxes the s—t out of Canelo," Stevenson told iFL TV.
Stevenson is set to make a defence of his title on February 22 in what will be his Riyadh Season debut.
He will be appearing on The Last Crescendo undercard live on DAZN PPV where he will be facing fellow American Floyd Schofield before the undisputed light heavyweight title rematch between Artur Beterbiev and Dmitry Bivol.
