Canelo Álvarez, Terence Crawford Enter Fight Week in Las Vegas Ahead of Sept. 13 Undisputed Clash

The bout is scheduled for Saturday, September 13 at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas with Netflix carrying the fight exclusively. Álvarez arrived in Las Vegas and stood by his camp’s sparring with Jaron “Boots” Ennis and Yoenli Hernández to mimic Crawford’s switch‑hitting, a strategy criticized by Teddy Atlas as overly risky. Crawford enters undefeated at 41‑0 (31 KOs) after moving up two divisions to super‑middleweight, and recent camp images highlighted his added size as assistant coach Jacqui “Red” Spikes said Álvarez will feel his power. Crawford’s head trainer Brian “Bomac” McIntyre downplayed Álvarez’s size and punching power in comments to The Ring, arguing those advantages will not carry the full fight. Recent opinions diverged: former opponent William Scull questioned Álvarez’s knockout power yet favored him due to the weight gap, while ex‑champ Jeff Horn predicted a decision but said a Crawford stoppage remains possible; Álvarez separately told CNN en Español he aims to retire around age 36–37 to pursue promoting.
