Catch Every Update, Anytime, Anywhere
Canelo enters the bout with one of the most decorated résumés in modern boxing. The 34-year-old Mexican superstar holds all four major belts at 168 pounds, WBC, WBA, WBO, & IBF, and boasts a record of 63 wins, 2 losses, and 2 draws, with 39 knockouts.
Known for his power, counterpunching, and relentless body work, Álvarez reestablished his dominance earlier this year by defeating William Scull to once again secure the undisputed crown at super middleweight.
Standing across from him will be the unbeaten Terence Crawford, who brings a flawless 41-0 record with 31 knockouts. Crawford, regarded by many as the best pound-for-pound boxer on the planet, is stepping up two weight classes for this monumental clash.
The Omaha native most recently captured the WBO interim super welterweight title against Israil Madrimov in August 2024, showcasing his technical brilliance and adaptability. Crawford’s speed, ring IQ, and switch-hitting ability have frustrated every opponent to date, and fans are eager to see if those same tools will hold up against the bigger, stronger Álvarez.
The odds slightly favor Canelo at -185, with Crawford listed as a +145 underdog, but the stakes could not be higher. This fight is more than a championship bout; it’s a collision of two generational greats, each chasing legacy-defining glory.
The undercard will also feature Callum Walsh vs Fernando Vargas Jr. in the co-main event, alongside standout bouts such as Christian Mbilli vs Lester Martinez at super middleweight and Mohammed Alakel vs. John Ornelas at lightweight, plus a deep preliminary card.
With size versus skill at the forefront, Canelo vs Crawford is shaping up to be a fight fans will talk about for decades to come.
