The President of the WBO, Gustavo Olivieri, Esq. He revealed that Terence Crawford “will not return to 154” and will be vacant the provisional belt with this organization.
It is a play waiting for Crawford (41-0, 31 kos) because it earns a lot of money, challenging Canelo Alvarez for his titles at Super Middleweight on September 13.
Departure from Crawford
After this day of payment, Crawford, 38, would have a massive reduction of payments to return to 154 to fight the current champion, Sebastian Fundora, in a party that would be very risky for him due to his lack of size and advanced age.
Returning to 154 to fight younger fighters with size and capacity would be difficult for Crawford, who only struggles once a year. When he returns after his turn of the victory or the crushing defeat of the Alvarez struggle, he will be 39 years old and cannot wait for the Fundora of Stork of 6’5 1/2 “.
It’s not clear what Crawford will do after his struggle with Canelo. It obviously has the defeat of Canelo and achieves a lucrative realization. This would be the ideal situation for the Nebraska Native Crawford. However, if he loses to Canelo, it will be interesting to see if he decides to stay in 168, return to 154 or withdraw.
You can still make money fighting in the events of the Riyadh season if they want to use it for fights. They seem to be fond of Crawford. Therefore, it should still be useful if you combine carefully. You could not match Crawford against any of the older fighters such as David Benavidez or David Morrell because he set out for his size, power and youth, but he would do well against someone like Edgar Berlanga.
Olivieri recommends that the contestant Xander Zayas (21-0, 13 kos) #1 be mandatory for the champion of Sebastian Fundora. If this happens, the winner of the Saturday struggle between WBC/Wbo Fundora (21-1-1, 13 kos) and Chordale Booker will have 120 days to defend against the first rank promoted Zayas.
The first rank has protected Xander Zayas, 22, just as they protected Berlanga when he was with them. So it is difficult to know if it is good or not. Its opposition has been so horrible that there is no way to know if it is a bombo job like Berlanga or has real talent.
Re: Wbo Jr.
Middle weight division (154 pounds))1. We have confirmed that Terence Crawford will not return to 154 pounds, the division and will give up its temporary title of Wbo in the official announcement of Canelo/Crawford. Therefore, its mandatory state of challenge is Motot. /
