Terence Crawford 's right-hand man Bernie Davis appears to have confirmed he will fight Canelo Alvarez in 2025. The showdown will be a huge challenge for Crawford, who will need to step up 14lbs to reach Alvarez's weight and fight for the unified world titles, but it promises to be a blockbuster. Davis stated, 'Crawford vs. Canelo. As I said, Crawford vs. Canelo. Yeah, it’s confirmed. Crawford vs. Canelo, not the other way around.' He added, 'Team Crawford stands up.
Pound-for-pound, the best in the world. Soon to be the super middleweight champion of the world.'Davis acknowledged the significant disadvantages Crawford faces, stating, 'That’s the only challenges Crawford looked for, and it was only right. We deserved this challenge to be on the big stage in a mega-fight in a super fight in what we call a David vs. Goliath battle. Again, we have a lot of disadvantages in this fight as far as weight, as far as power, and a lot of things on par as far as accomplishments and skills-set.' He highlighted Crawford's accomplishments, saying, 'The things he done have hardly been done before. Two-time undisputed, unified champion in three weights but four.'Davis emphasized the significance of this fight, stating, 'We didn’t get the Pacquiao fight or Mayweather or anyone of that caliber. This is the fight.' Crawford, now 37 years old, is in the latter stages of his career. The potential fight with Alvarez will arguably be the most defining of his career. However, the lure of facing a pound-for-pound legend like Alvarez presents Crawford with an opportunity to solidify his legacy in the sport and secure a substantial financial reward. Initially, there were doubts that Alvarez would accept the fight, but his stance softened after discussions with Alalshikh.
