The weekend on Mexican Independence Day has always been one of the Holy Battling Bugs Square. Julio Cesar Chavez, Oscar de la Hoya, Floyd Mayweather – they all used the holiday to support their names. Now the role of Canelo Alvarez again, as it carried the flag of Mexico to Las Vegas for another scene of the field.

This time, the opponent is not a faded name or a local competitor. It is Terring “Bod” Croford – 41 wins, unbeatable, and a desire to chase the light weight along the average weight. On Saturday night at Allegiant, Live on Netflix (9 pm East time), Caneo puts every belt at 168 on the line against the undisputed previous king. An elite group of pounds against a pound sharing one-loop-rare region in the world of broken boxing today.

Why Croford, not Pinavides?

The truth is cold: the options ran, and the Saudi money sank merit. After his 2022 gambling against Dmitry Bivol, Canelo recently felt more dangers than the conquest-overlooking the semi-retirement Golovkin, and above the smaller Jermell Charlo, walking via Ryder, Munguia, Berlanga and Scull.

The fans demanded Benfdiz. Instead, alashikh is attached to the $ 400 million RIYAHIADH. Suddenly, Crowford, which was once rejected, became “very small”, became applicable. Canilo admitted this: “If the money is right, then why not at this moment in my career.”

Can Crawford deal with the jump?

Croford does not test water. He went directly from the dismantling of Errol Spence in 147 and surpassed Israel in 154 to stare at the hero in 168.

He once admitted that Canilo was never on his radar because of the size gap. But a legacy surpasses comfort. He could have defended Jarun Innis or cleaned him from young people. Instead, he chose the biggest prize: an opportunity to become the first man in the era of the four belt with an undisputed era in three sections.

The danger is brutal. He lost, not only “0” which has ended-is his aura as a fighter of the three best pounds for a pound.

Difficulties, methods and gam chessE

According to ESPN, Lean Caneo Canelo Cane in -175, with Crawford +140. The bias are baked in size. Alvarez has not been weak since his second battle with Golovkin.

No man throws in size. Expect the measured exchanges. Caneo Plan: Apply fixed pressure, and the exchange of strength on its conditions, tends to be the framework of 168 pounds in each. Croford’s answer: switching situations, using angles, combating errors, and letting the speed is his shield.

Canelo is struggling at the chase. Crawford suffers if besieged. Everyone who controls geography control the battle.

How can you reveal?

Do not expect SlugFest. Caneo will look forward to slowing the rhythm, maintaining things in the middle of the range, with heavy in rulers. Cruford will try to frustrate the movement, choose its locations, and punish the amounts.

If Caneo is coast, Crawford has tools to punish him. If Cervord is hesitant against the ropes, Caneo will grind it. Either way, performance cards can become messy.

Is the biggest night of boxing since Mayweather-Pacquiao?

Not commercial. In 2015, Mayweather-Pacquiao still governs 4.6 million purchases, and has withdrew Mayweather-Mcgregor in more obstacles. But inside the circuit? This can provide more. Bacoyao faded by 2015. McGregor was a tourist. Croford is not.

The attendees tell the story. Nearly 65,000 tickets were sold, multiplying the old Vigas-CONEY Vegas record in 1982. Add Netflix Streaming all over the world, and this can reset the sports distribution form.

What is really at stake regarding the pound against the pound?

If Canelo wins, it strengthens itself in 168 but it does not jump USYK or inoue. He hit a smaller man who will not be crowned by the king.

If Crowford wins, rewriting the date. Three covenants in three sections. It was never done. As Kraovord said: “My appetite for adversity is what drives me. That is why I took this battle.”

UnderCard notes

• Christian Millie vs Leicester Martinez – Both of them were not defeated, both of them are drill. Mbilli is No. 2 in ESPN in 168 and chasing the title of the title.

• Callum Walsh Vs Fernando Vargas Jr. – At Walsh supports UFC through Dana White, Vargas JR. The name of the family. Less than belts, more than bragging rights.

• Ivan Detchko against Jermin Franklin The heavy weight battle that can shake the classification.

• In addition to the most prominent of Stephen Nelson, Mohamed Alkal, Reto Tsutsumi, Marco Verdi Alvarez, and Sultan Al -Mased.

Stadium pressure: Caneo feature

Caneo did so before – AT & T Stadium against Liam Smith, Battle of Sonders in 2021, Ryder in Guadalajara. Tens of thousands do not succeed.

For Croford, Alegant will be the first battle at home. Size, noise, and scene – whether it attacks or feeds it is unknown.

This battle is not just pride – it’s action. Netflix enters the PPV market. Alalshiph reshapes the energy base in the boxing with Saudi support. Fighters like Caneo fight sovereign wealth about sanctions on bodies.

If this experience succeeds, expect more huge battles based on Saudi broadcasting and financing giants.

My call – Croford against Canilo

Canelo has avoided a real danger recently. Crawford is seeking to get it.

If Canelo imposes discipline, it beats points. But Crowford is the type to tear the text. It is smaller, but more severe, hungry, and ready to risk everything.

Lean: Crawford with a close, controversial decision.
