Dana White and Tko to promote Canelo vs. Crawford: UFC will Boost PPV reach for Boxing’s “biggest struggle”?

Turki Alralikh has confirmed today that Dana White will promote the September 13 combat between Canelo Alvarez and Terence Crawford along with TKO boxing. With Dana’s reach through the UFC, you could bring more interest in PPV fanatics and purchases for this Super Fight.

PPV Price Debate of Canelo-Crawford

The Canelo-Crawford platform has not been revealed or priced on the PPV. Recent Canelo fights against Edgar Berlanga and Jaime Munguia have been in the $ 70 strip. Given that Turki calls Canelo vs Crawford “the biggest boxing struggle”, it is reasonable to assume that the price of the PPV could be higher than the recent Alvarez fights, possibly even to $ 90 or $ 100.

This is too high for this struggle because Crawford is not popular with the main fans. On the other hand, the struggle is more in terms of money for the 35 -year -old Alvarez Alvarez aging, and the Bud Crawford of 40 ISH.

Crawford’s age and performance problems

Both come out of bad performances, where they showed that they are not found instead of the top of their weight classes. The Canelo looked at William Scull, would lose up to half a dozen of the best contenders. Crawford probably lost its last struggle, Again Israil Madrimov, but received a questionable decision last August.

This struggle showed that Crawford is too old and small to overcome the highest fighters in 154; Therefore, he quickly resigned from his goal of trying to shoot for killers, such as Bakrham Murtazaliev, Edgar Berlanga and Vergil Ortiz, to be indisputable in a half junior weight. To give up this goal showed that Crawford knew he had no chance of achieving it. He reached his roof and his age takes care of.

Ignoring the boxing of boxing

Many fans could pay for this type of money, as this contest ignores the typical classification system and meritocracy involved in a fighter who challenges a world title. 37 -year -old Crawford has never fought Super Middleweight, he did not qualify for 168 and jump two weight classes to receive an immediate title shot. It’s just a money struggle. Crawford will not win its title, and it is doubtful that it could be forced to carry out a small slope of three fixed ones.

At the advanced age of Crawford, chronic inactivity and the small framework, it is doubtful that he can beat these three contestants to obtain a title against Canelo.
