Canelo Alvarez reveals the truth about Crawford’s career

Terence Crawford was upset today, reacting to Canelo Alvarez downgrading his record by saying he was just fighting one “good” opponent during his 17-year professional career, Errol Spence, after he suffered a terrifying car accident in 2019.

Alvarez: “One good win”

Canelo seems to have mixed feelings about giving an unfinished, unproven fighter like Crawford a chance to fight him. Terence never fought any of the assassins at 147 or 154.

It stands to reason that Alvarez is catching Crawford, who has a resume that is without quality victories because it’s true. He’s an example of how fighters can float through divisions, win titles against weak opposition, and then call out a popular fighter for cash. There is a system for this. What Crawford did to win four titles in the division is no different than what Adrien Broner did to accomplish the same feat.

Terence’s world victory in four divisions

– Israil Madrimov – 154
– Jeff Horn – 147
– Thomas Dulorme – 140
– Ricky Burns – 135

Canelo wouldn’t have a problem with Crawford if he at least did that, and that’s not asking much of him. King Canelo would be right to insist that Crawford put his skin in the general population of 168 to mix it up with Benavides, Morel and Christian Mbili.

Four-leaguer Crawford was wounded by Canelo’s pointed truth, but all he could say was that he “always took joy in making” his opponents “nobodies.” But when they were nobody when he fought them, what does that say about Crawford?

Alvarez (62-2-2, 39 KOs) revealed the truth about Crawford’s career. He has only beaten one good fighter, Spence, and that was after he was physically destroyed in a car accident in 2019. Once you get past the Errol win, there is no one on Terence’s resume that you could call a good fighter. Either they were shot when Crawford fought them or they were B-level their whole career.

Crawford defends his legacy

“Lol that’s crazy! So every fighter I’ve fought isn’t good, but one? Noticed! Just remember what you said because I’ve always had the joy of making somebody look like nobody’s business,” Terence Crawford said on Ksresponding to Canelo Alvarez saying he’s only beaten “one good fighter” in Errol Spence in his 17-year pro career.

“I respect Terence Crawford, but he’s only won one big fight. If you look at his record, he just beat a good fighter. Besides, I don’t think he beats any great fighter like Spence,” said Canelo Alvarez in an interview with TMZ Sport.

Turki Al-Sheikh needs to tell Crawford that he needs to beat these three fighters to earn the fight against Canelo:

1. David Benavidez
2. David Morrell
3. Osley Iglesias

I’d be with Turkey if he insisted that Crawford run this little gauntlet to earn Canelo golden parachute money for retirement. I mean, isn’t that how it’s done in the NFL and NBA? You play with the best teams and go to the playoffs and championship games to earn a chance for the grand prize. Crawford is trying to take a shortcut to gold, and I can’t respect that. It’s pathetic.
