The eyes of the boxing world will fall upon Allegiant Stadium for a blockbuster showdown live on Netflix between two of the sport\u2019s biggest pound-for-pound superstars and most successful modern champions.<\/p>\n

The undefeated American \u2018Bud\u2019 Crawford, already having been undisputed at both super-lightweight and welterweight and held world titles in four different divisions, jumps up two weight classes to challenge Mexican icon Canelo for his undisputed super-middleweight titles in a fantasy bout long teased that many thought would never come to fruition.<\/p>\n

Canelo, also a four-division and two-time undisputed champion, is currently in his second reign holding all the belts at 168 pounds, having brushed aside William Scull in a low-key contest <\/a>in Riyadh in May to regain the IBF title that had been stripped from him when he chose to fight Edgar Berlanga instead of Scull in September 2024.<\/p>\n

That put the final touches on a mammoth fight against Crawford, who picked up the WBA light-middleweight gold with a points victory over Israil Madrimov in Los Angeles last summer that improved his flawless professional record to 41-0.<\/p>\n

Canelo vs Crawford prediction<\/p>\n

Much has been made of seasoned super-middleweight Canelo – who has fought as high as light-heavyweight in his illustrious career – having an obvious size advantage against an opponent who began his career as a lightweight and is moving up significantly again.<\/p>\n

However, to see them stand head to head or side by side, it is really notable how little there seems to be between them now \u2018Bud\u2019 has bulked up – indeed, Crawford is slightly taller than Canelo with a clear reach advantage.<\/p>\n

However, while there is certainly no doubting his supreme technical abilities and incredible ring IQ, it is worth questioning how Crawford will handle competing with all that extra weight, having only fought once at light-middle before quickly vaulting up another two divisions.<\/p>\n

There may also be an element of ring rust to shake off for the Omaha, Nebraska favourite, who has only fought once since July 2023.<\/p>\n

But write him off at your peril. Canelo is one of the true all-time greats who wears down opponents so methodically, but the performance against Scull left a lot to be desired and could be more evidence of him finally slowing down after some 67 fights and two full decades in the pro ranks.<\/p>\n

Canelo is understandably the favourite here, but we\u2019re backing Crawford to make more history on a night to remember in Sin City.<\/p>\n
