Terence Crawford predicts the “hard struggle” for Canelo Alvarez against William Scull, a possible indisputable clash in September

Terence Crawford hopes that William Scull, Super Middleweight champion, to make it a “hard struggle” for the unified three -belts Canelo Alvarez belts in his indisputable championship this Saturday, May 3, in Riyadh.

Crawford says that many fans are giving Scull (23-0, 9 kos) there is no chance of winning the struggle, but he sees it turning it into a challenging struggle for WBA, WBC and WBO of 168 pounds Canelo (62-2-2, 39 kos) in headline, Live in Dazn PPV. Terence still believes that Canelo will win the fight, but it will be competitive as long as it lasts.

Crawford’s hope

It is not clear if Crawford is talking from a point of preference so that Canelo wins instead of believing it. It needs the Mexican star to be victorious against Scull so that his struggle goes in September. If Canelo is beaten, this will wrap the Turki Alralikh plans to do what he calls the “great struggle” between Alvarez and Crawford.

It is not the struggle that fans want to see, but it is what Turki wants. The audience wants to see Canelo fight against David Benavidez, not the 38 -year -old Crawford. The fans would like to see Bud if he moved to 168 and was shown to beat Benavidez, David Morrell and Christian Mbilli. It is allowed to jump these sharks and go directly to Canelo, which will harm the interest in the competition.

“I feel good about the fight. It will be a hard struggle for Canelo. I think many people write Scull. I think it will do it competitive,” said Terence Crawford to Ring Magazine About the Saturday struggle between Canelo Alvarez and William Scull in Riad, Saudi Arabia.

“I think he will do it competitive and I think Canelo will do the job. He will get the victory. I only hope he will leave the ring without injuries and he is ready for September,” Crawford said, hoping that Alvarez will win and be healthy enough to face it in September. “I will be on the side.”

Crawford did not say what he will do if Canelo loses. Waiting for the loss to Scull in September, and then the struggle in May 2026? If Crawford does it, will it be out of a two -year dismissal and will come in 39. Who wants to see Canelo fight against Bud in these conditions?
