Amir Khan on the Canelo - Crawford fight: He has lost the fire in his belly.

Canelo on Canelo: is he back on top?

According to The Sun: Former champion Amir Khan expressed concern that Canelo Alvarez has lost his passion for boxing, which could give Terence Crawford an edge.

Canelo will defend his titles in the heavyweight category against Crawford on Saturday - this will be the 68th fight in his legendary career.

Alvarez, who is already 35 years old, has become a boxing star, winning numerous titles in four weight classes and approaching billionaire status. Khan, who lost his last fight against Kell Brook in 2022, believes Canelo has lost the same energy he had during their fight in 2016.

“I think Crawford will win this fight. I respect Canelo, but Crawford is in fresher shape,” Khan stated.

A grand fight is anticipated

This bout promises to be one of the biggest in boxing history, as two stars will meet in a battle for the title of best boxer. Crawford, who hasn't fought in a year, is moving up in weight classes to compete against Canelo, who has defended his titles in recent fights.

Canelo has impressive achievements in title defenses, but Khan doubts that his former opponent can maintain the same power.

“I don’t think he has the same fire as before,” Khan thinks.

Khan expressed optimism about the fight, stating: “It will be a fantastic battle, both fighters will not sit back and will fight until the end.”

This encounter promises to be a significant milestone in the career of not only Alvarez but also Crawford.
