After calling "Canelo" Alvarez, a 'disgrace', a professional boxer made a surprising prediction for the fight against Terence Crawford

The fight between Canelo Alvarez and Terence Crawford is potentially the most significant since Floyd Mayweather Jr. fought Manny Pacquiao, who fought in 2015, in a bout called "The Fight of the Century".

Who called "Canelo" Alvarez a disgrace?

Rolando Romero, a professional boxer who recently became the WBA regular welterweight champion, called in an interview to "Canelo" Alvarez, annoyed by how passive the Mexican was against the Cuban William Scull.

What was the surprising prediction made by Rolando Romero?

"Rolly" Romero not only called "Canelo" Alvarez a disgrace, but also confessed the following: "I hope Crawford gives him a beating. Oh, no. I definitely didn't say that Crawford could win. I said, I said I hope so."

Canelo Alvarez fighting against a taller and more skilled opponent

The conversation of Canelo Alvarez fighting a taller and more skilled opponent than the Mexican has taken social media by storm, but these are not reasons enough to dismiss the Aztec's favoritism in the September 13, 2025 fight against Terence Crawford, who undoubtedly has all the pressure on him.

Many expect Canelo Alvarez to beat Terence Crawford, although a loss after the disappointing performance against William Scull could severely tarnish his legacy in professional boxing.
