Terence Crawford lost Canelo Alvarez’s fight puts him in a position where he can withdraw if his full approach to continue was to obtain that great payment day. Canelo chose the greatest fight against Jake Paul in May, leaving Terence Alta and Dry in his search for the golden parachute.

According to reports, promoter Eddie Hearn believes that Crawford can now withdraw that he failed to fight with Canelo. He says that Canelo-Paul’s fight can have “derailed ” The Crawford party permanently.
It would be a strange movement for Crawford if you retire because there are many interesting fights that you can do at 154. They would not bring the massive money that a fight against Canelo would do it, but they would still pay well.
Crawford options
– Bakhram Murtazaliev
– Jaron Ennis
– Sebastian Fundora
– Vergil Ortiz
– David Benavidity
– Serhii Bohachuk
– David Morrell
– Israil Madrimov
If Crawford, 37, wants to sit and wait for the result of the mega cinnamon fight against Jake, hoping that the negotiations be with the Mexican star, can do it. That would look so desperately weak on his part, and his popularity would continue to decrease if he will not remain busy.
Fighting one of those guys would pay well, and if Crawford won, he would create more interest in a fight between him and Canelo. The fight would no longer be seen as an effective outlet, which is what they would be now if they fight.
“Jake Paul’s fight makes a lot of sense to Canelo Álvarez, but also changes the trajectory of Crawford’s fight,” Eddie Hearn told Ring magazine YouTube Channel, discussing Canelo’s news today choosing to fight Jake Paul below in May.
“Canelo-Crawford is one of the great boxing fights that can be made today. When you go and fight against Jake Paul, it’s something like that. Maybe someone has reacted to that news, or maybe (Canelo Vs. Crawford) simply failed.
“It seems to me that the movement to fight Jake Paul may have derailed the other fight. I do not blame Canelo Álvarez because, financially, the biggest fight is Canelo-Jake Paul because in that fight, you have two great stars.
Fight Jake Paul is a better movement for Canelo’s career because the money and advertising he will receive for that party will be massive. In addition, Canelo will win more fans due to Jake social networks. It has more than 20 million Instagram followers and more than 20 million youtube subscribers, many of whom will become Canelo fans after this fight.
Crawford needs to defend his Junior AB Junior weight title that he won from Israil Madrimov last year in August. He has not yet defended that belt, and is holding it hostage. All the contestants in the Top 15 of the AMB are having their races stagnated by Crawford, do not defend.
As champion, Crawford has been rotten with his schedule once a year. It is the worst type of champion because it only defends itself. If Crawford wants Canelo’s day, you need to move up to 168 or 175 and overcome some of the main combatants, such as David Benavász, David Morrell or Diego Pacheco.
“In the other fight (Canelo-Crawford), you obtained two great fighters and a great star. Terence Crawford should be a great star, but in reality, it is not. It’s just an incredible fighter. Listen, everything can change overnight. So, don’t rule out Canelo vs. Crawford, but as I hear, Canelo-Jake Paul is over, ”said Hearn.
