Mayweather Gives Honest Opinion on Fighting Canelo

Canelo is still fighting at the top table, and on September 13, he will look to defend his super middleweight titles against Terence Crawford at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas. As we build up to fight night, many boxing experts are expressing their excitement and giving their opinion on this super fight.

Floyd Mayweather was the first opponent to defeat Canelo and in a resurfaced video, he reflects on that win and doesn’t hold back: “I’m going to tell y’all the truth about Canelo. M************* easy man. Cakewalk. Easy. Y’all sitting up here, y’all praising this dude. This due was nothing. I was almost 40 years old when I cooked this dude. Easy.

“Y’all always disrespecting our fighters,” said Mayweather.

Canelo Alvarez vs Terence Crawford

Canelo vs William Scull was about as dire as world title boxing gets, with Scull largely refusing to engage and Canelo seemingly unable to cut off the ring. The Mexican legend will need to improve this aspect before he can focus on breaking down Crawford’s body..

Crawford, meanwhile, will need to stay mobile, but pick his moments to engage, forcing Canelo to second-guess his next move. The fight has already captured the attention of the boxing world, and the build-up promises to be as fascinating as the fight night itself.
