The heated Instagram live argument between Terence Crawford and Canelo Alvarez has sparked a massive buzz in the boxing world, bringing back the highly anticipated fight that fans have been waiting for.

It all began with Crawford calling out Canelo, accusing him of avoiding tough competition and only picking easy fights to protect his reputation.

Crawford challenged Canelo directly, criticizing his recent win over Edgar Berlanga, claiming that Canelo was choosing weaker opponents to maintain his Undisputed status in the super middleweight division.

Canelo, known for his composed demeanor, responded firmly to Crawford’s challenge. He pointed out the clear weight difference, stating that Crawford should stay in his own weight class instead of chasing a fight for money.

Canelo’s response emphasized that Crawford’s move from welterweight (147 lbs) to super middleweight (168 lbs) seemed unrealistic, given the size disparity between them.

While Crawford dismissed these concerns, maintaining that he’s ready to face anyone, Canelo was clear that a fight with Crawford would not bring him the recognition he would need, as defeating a smaller fighter like Crawford might not earn him the praise he deserves.

However, despite this, there is still interest in the fight, especially with Saudi Arabia’s General Entertainment Authority pushing for a massive event potentially set for December or January.

Crawford, eager to make history by moving up in weight to face Canelo, sees it as a chance to solidify his legacy. On the other hand, Canelo remains cautious, understanding the risks involved in facing Crawford, especially considering that a loss could severely damage his reputation.

Canelo’s trainer, Eddy Reynoso, has been firm in his stance that the fight should happen at super middleweight, and he’s not interested in meeting Crawford at a catchweight.

Meanwhile, Crawford’s trainer, Brian McIntyre, has been outspoken, expressing confidence that Crawford’s boxing IQ and ability to adapt in the ring would give him the edge, even with the size difference. McIntyre believes that Crawford’s superior intelligence in the ring would allow him to outbox Canelo and neutralize his power.

While this debate continues to capture the attention of fans worldwide, another potential opponent for Canelo is rising: David Benavidez, a powerful super middleweight who has long been calling out Canelo for a fight.

Despite Benavidez’s impressive record, issues outside the ring have raised questions about whether this fight will ever happen. Canelo, however, remains focused on finding the right challenges that will not only test his skills but also bring the recognition he seeks.

As for Canelo’s future in boxing, while he is not ready to retire just yet, fans are starting to wonder how many more big-name challenges remain.

His recent performances have been criticized for a lack of explosive knockouts, but Canelo maintains his confidence, explaining that he’s in no hurry to finish fights quickly and is more focused on showcasing his technical abilities.

As the speculation about his next opponent continues, the question remains: Will Crawford and Canelo ever meet in the ring, or will other challengers like Benavidez step up to the plate? Fans eagerly await the outcome of this intense drama, with the hope that one day, the fight will happen.
