Canelo v Crawford: A Las Vegas super-fight and the battle for boxing legacy
The city has a concrete buzz, a great feeling of war. However, this is not a fight arising from the admiration demand.
Crawford began lightness; Alvarez rose up to light weight. He didn’t make sense on paper.
A year ago, Alvarez laughed from the idea of confronting Crawford, saying he was very small, very risky and there was nothing to win.
So what has changed? Real driver money and power brokers behind it.
This event points to the cooperation of the first election framework between Saudi Arabia’s Turki Alalshikh and UFC chief Dana White’s boxing attempt.
Alalshikh asked Alvarez and Crawford to confront each other and – as he did – he took what he wanted. Cheque-Book made convincing.
Alvarez will win a bag of $ 150 million (£ 111 million). Hollywood treatment, which he expects because he shows his reserve from the absurd expensive watch collection to luxury car fleet.
Crawford, who is disappointed by smaller wallets, will receive at least $ 10 million ($ 7.4 million) and is expected to rise above $ 200 million. The notified wallets are usually inflated, but taste the relevant delegations.
Although Alvarez-Crawford did not last for years, special moments have been built on private fighters.
In the age of Youtube celebrities and exhibitions, this boxing is still a chance to show that you can still produce a legitimate, high -betting drama.
