Mike Tyson Urged Terence Crawford To Steer Clear Of A Bout With Canelo Álvarez, Warning That The Fight Poses Immense Danger And Could Be Career
In the boxing world today, many fans are looking forward to a clash between Terence Crawford and Canelo Álvarez – two of the best fighters in their respective weight classes. However, boxing legend Mike Tyson has famously advised Crawford against facing Canelo, warning that the fight could be a bad decision
Mike Tyson, who has dominated the ring with his powerful and fiery style, believes that the difference in size and strength is something Crawford will find difficult to overcome. Tyson explained that Canelo, with his experience and knockout opponents in the bigger weight class, has a clear advantage in strength and power
“Crawford is a great puncher, but I don’t think he should take on Canelo. Canelo is a monster in his weight class, and it’s not easy to get that physical advantage,” Tyson shared in an interview.
Tyson stressed that Crawford should focus on defending his title in his current weight class and not risk taking on a fighter who weighs more than Canelo. Although Crawford is hailed as one of the best technical fighters in the world, Tyson believes that a fight with Canelo would be a challenge
“There’s no doubting Crawford’s talent, but I’ve seen a lot of guys try to finish in a higher weight class and fail. Canelo is not an opponent you can take down easily, especially when he’s so used to the power of people in his weight class
However, this fight is still a fantasy that fans would love to see happen, with Crawford and Canelo both being such bright stars in the sport. Will Mike Tyson’s advice on the solution influence Crawford’s decision?
