Floyd Mayweather found his opinion about Canelo and Crawford known
Crawford is one of the best boxers who still has its undefeated record intact, while Canelo has suffered losses on two different occasions.
The first of them came when he fought against Floyd Mayweather and was brought to school by the former pound-for-pound.
Canelo then suffered a loss when he went to light heavyweight in an attempt to win gold there, but was dominated by Dmitry Bivol.
When Mayweather was asked his opinion about the Mexican hunter, he made clear what he thought of him and claimed that when they fought, he was 'easy work'.
“I will tell you the truth about Canelo, the mother – was easy work. A cakewalk. Easy. Your praise all this guy. He was nothing. I was almost 40 and I cooked this guy,” said Mayweather Fight Hype.
However, the former number one of Pond-Voor-Pond was full of praise for 'Bud' Crawford when he was asked his opinion about the 37-year-old.
“We can place (Gervonta) 'Tank' (Davis) there in the top 10 in Pound-for-Pound, he must be somewhere in Pound-for-Pound … From now on I would place Terence Crawford as number one,” Mayweather Boxing Mane said in a later interview.
Mike Tyson insisted on Terence Crawford not to take a Canelo fight
Despite 'money' Mayweather's thoughts about both hunters, however, the former heavyweight boxing king insisted, Mike Tyson insisted on Crawford not to take the fight against Canelo.
Tyson touched the large weight difference between the two hunters and declared his worries for Crawford, because he will be considerable the smaller hunter.
