“Crawford’s Coach Calls Shots: ‘Bud’ to Repeat Errol Spence Jr. Victory Against Canelo!”
The boxing world is buzzing with excitement and speculation following a cryptic photo shared by Terence Crawford last month. The image, depicting the welterweight champion sporting noticeably bulked-up muscles, has ignited rumors of a potential clash with none other than the formidable Canelo Alvarez. While Canelo is currently gearing up for a showdown against Jaime Munguia in May, the prospect of a future matchup against Crawford looms large.
With Jermall Charlo’s absence from the scene, Crawford’s name has surged to the forefront of contender discussions. Even members of Crawford’s own team are confident in his ability to triumph over the Mexican superstar. In a recent interview, Crawford’s head trainer, Brian ‘BoMac’ McIntyre, boldly asserted Crawford’s dominance over Alvarez.
McIntyre’s unwavering confidence in Crawford’s skills was evident as he emphatically declared, “Bud beats his a**.” His conviction sparked a flurry of inquiries from the media, seeking further insight into Crawford’s potential strategy against the undisputed super-middleweight champion.
When pressed about the weight disparity between the two fighters, McIntyre brushed off concerns, stating, “It don’t matter. Bud’s been fighting big people all day, all his f***ing life.” He remained unfazed by Alvarez’s renowned head movement, expressing full faith in Crawford’s ability to overcome any obstacle with the support of his coaching team.
In McIntyre’s eyes, a matchup between Crawford and Alvarez would mirror Crawford’s decisive victory over Errol Spence Jr. He confidently predicted, “Oh it’d be Errol Spence and Crawford 2.” Despite the palpable confidence emanating from Crawford’s camp, Alvarez appears hesitant to entertain the idea of facing off against Crawford.
Canelo Alvarez, reigning supreme as the undisputed super middleweight champion, is slated to face Jaime Munguia in May before considering his next opponent. Meanwhile, Crawford has been out of the ring since his victorious undisputed welterweight title bout against Errol Spence Jr. last July.
While a rematch with Spence seemed imminent, the allure of a clash with Canelo has never waned for Crawford. However, Alvarez has expressed reservations, citing concerns over the weight disparity between them. In an interview with Box Azteca earlier this year, Alvarez voiced apprehension, noting the potential criticism he might face if victorious.
As speculation continues to swirl, the likelihood of Crawford and Alvarez locking horns remains uncertain. For Crawford to secure a showdown with ‘Cinnamon,’ he may need to establish his dominance in the super middleweight division, setting the stage for a blockbuster bout that fans have eagerly anticipated.
