Canelo Álvarez vs. Terence Crawford Set for Saturday in Las Vegas on Netflix

Oddsmakers back Álvarez, with Crawford attempting an unprecedented third undisputed crown after moving up two weight classes.

Overview

  • Allegiant Stadium hosts the four-belt super‑middleweight title bout on September 13, streamed globally on Netflix for subscribers at no extra cost, with the main event slated for 9 p.m. ET.
  • Sportsbooks have Álvarez favored (around -170 to -182) and list the over 9.5 or 10.5 rounds heavily juiced, signaling expectations of a late fight.
  • An AI projection published by BettingLounge using Google Gemini forecasts a 10th‑round TKO for Álvarez, a prediction that echoes market sentiment but remains speculative.
  • At the opening bell, Crawford will lose WBA recognition at junior middleweight, with interim titleholder Abass Baraou elevated to full champion under sanctioning body rules.
  • Dana White’s new Saudi‑backed boxing venture drew scrutiny at the final news conference, where he clashed with a reporter over the Muhammad Ali Act as promotion for the Netflix event intensified.
