9 days To Go Canelo Alvarez Fires “A Real War Needs Two Willing Warriors”: Canelo Alvarez Fires Warning at Terence Crawford
The pride of Guadalajara, Saúl “Canelo” Álvarez, has set the stage for what he swears will be the biggest fight in boxing history when he collides with Terence “Bud” Crawford on September 13.
The two pound-for-pound kings will clash for the undisputed super middleweight crown at 168 pounds (76.2 kg), inside the Las Vegas Raiders’ fortress, in a spectacle that will stream live on Netflix in the U.S. Canelo enters the ring holding all the gold—the WBC, WBA, WBO, and IBF world titles—and vows that this showdown will eclipse anything the sport has ever seen.
Speaking to Central Fox, the Mexican superstar didn’t mince words:
“This will be the biggest fight ever… everyone will be watching.” Fighting on the eve of Mexico’s Independence Day, he’ll have the power of an entire nation behind him.

Still, critics insist he isn’t the true king at super middleweight. Canelo’s response was fiery: “I don’t give a damn. I know I’m the best… and that’s it. To have a great fight, it takes both fighters.”
Adding to the stakes, the fighters will also battle for the Tlaxcala II Commemorative Belt, a handcrafted masterpiece unveiled by WBC President Mauricio Sulaimán. Billed as Mexico’s gift to the boxing world, the belt symbolizes just how monumental this night will be—Canelo’s grand return to Las Vegas against an undefeated rival who many see as untouchable.
On September 13, history won’t just be written—it will be fought for.
