In his nearly 20-year professional boxing career, Santos Saúl Álvarez Barragán, better known as Canelo, has heard it all.

Despite being regarded by many as the greatest Mexican boxer of all time, he continues to face various forms of criticism.

Just this past September 14, he defeated Puerto Rican boxer Edgar Berlanga by unanimous decision, although not everyone was convinced by his performance.

Now, Canelo Álvarez is facing fresh criticism over the potential opponent for his next fight, scheduled for May 2025.

Is Terence Crawford a Hand-Picked Opponent?

According to Excélsior, all signs point to Terence Crawford being Canelo’s next opponent.

As with previous occasions, Canelo has been criticized for allegedly choosing «hand-picked» opponents.

For this match, Terence would need to move up two weight divisions, giving Canelo a significant advantage.

It is said that it’s only a matter of time before this fight is officially confirmed.

If Crawford is indeed confirmed as Canelo Álvarez’s next opponent, several factors must be considered.

Although currently a welterweight, Terence has competed in other weight classes during his career.

In other words, he has both gained and lost weight before, so this may not be a problem for him in facing the Mexican fighter.

Just last year, Crawford defeated Errol Spence Jr., unifying the main titles in his division.

One of the most prominent voices against this matchup is former world champion Mike Tyson.

He, like other experts, points out the significant weight difference between the two fighters.

«Crawford is just looking for the millions from Canelo; he doesn’t care if he loses,» commented one user online.

According to Excélsior, Canelo is asking for $150 million to fight Terence.
