Algieri says Canelo’s legacy would be “massively” by the loss of Crawford

Chris Algieri believes that the loss for Canelo Alvarez against Terence Crawford “will tarnish his legacy” for good. He will have lost in front of an old light champion, which moves two divisions at 37 September 13.

Algieri believes that the loss for Canelo (63-2-2, 39 kos) would favor the flames for the criticism he already receives to catch certain fighters during his career. I should not lose with someone as old, inactive and small as Crawford. The difference in resumes between the two fighters is massive. Crawford has a Adrien broner curriculum. Canelo has fought against the opposition that is really good, fighters like Gennadiy Golovkin, Dmitry Bivol, Floyd Mayweather Jr. and Erislandy Lara.

“The boy can do it and if he loses, I don’t think he affects his legacy so much. All the accomplishments he already has, Crawford. They will not be forgotten. He is jumping two classes of weight,” said Chris Algieri a Fight Hub TVSpeaking of Terence Crawford there is no disadvantage against Canelo Alvarez on September 13.

Crawford’s accomplishments are not much if we look at their resume. It is a world champion of four divisions and an indisputable champion of two divisions. Their real victories are not breathtaking if you follow the sport and understand who is good. He won the B -level fighters. The only one who beat Crawford was Israil Madrimov, and this was controversial.

“Therefore, I think it is a situation of winning loss for these guys. A victory for Crawfordand a loss-loss for Canelo. This is a great point of Crawford. This is a great way to put -under Canelo’s skin, “Algieri said.” Yes there is a lot on the Canelo line because if you lose this, The waste of his legacy is massive. Lost in the face of heavy weight. Lost in front of a light. It was a light world champion. “”

Canelo knows that this is a situation without winning. That is why I did not want to fight Crawford in the first place. The only reason he chose is because Turki Alshikh attracted him with a payment of $ 100 million. Therefore, if Alvarez loses, the money will be a safe for their injured feelings. You can drown your penalties with the mega billion and invent reasons why it was beaten.

“He (Crawford) skipped two weight classes. He was 30 years old (Correction: 37, pushing 38 on September 28). There will be a lot of that. Many of the criticism that Canelo has received lately, not to fight certain boys, will again storm it much more, “said Algieri.

A loss for Crawford will show fans that Alvarez has not improved since his loss for Floyd Mayweather Jr. in 2013. He was equipped with decisions on Gennadiy Golovkin and Erislandy Lara. He waited until GGG was 36 years before he finally struggled. Losing an old Crawford, who should have lost his last fight against Israil Madrimov, would show that the theories of Canelo fans have a protected and pampered fighter.

“I like Canelo, but he is very hot here. So I think the loss will be much more. A loss here is going to favor these flames,” Algieri said.

The critic that Canelo has been achieving will not disappear regardless of the good appearance against Crawford. The fans will not let him forget that David Benavidez, David Morrell, Diego Pacheco and Christian Mbilli has been started. Fighting against an old and small Crawford, which reaches an abysmal performance in its 154 debut last year, will not be eliminated. This struggle should not even happen If boxing was regulated like other sports.
