Tyson Fury has had his say on who he believes will come out on top between Canelo Alvarez and Terence Crawford in this weekend’s huge title fight in Las Vegas.
The two legends collide early on Sunday morning for the undisputed super-middleweight title.
Crawford (41-0) has raised himself two weight divisions for the fight, ad though his speed might be too much for the weightier Canelo (63-2-2), fans are split on the outcome.
Fury agrees it’s a difficult fight to call, but is backing the Mexican.
“At 168 pounds, I’m gonna say Canelo. At 140, I’m gonna say Crawford. So I’ll go with Canelo.
“I think it’s a fantastic fight for boxing. It’s two of the biggest names in boxing coming together. Two men, pride on the line and everything to fight for.
“They’re two proud champions and I wish them all the best.
“They’re going to go in there, do their best, entertain the public and provide for their families, and that’s what it’s all about.”
