Arguably the biggest fight of the year is here. Canelo Alvarez and Terence Crawford are set to throw down in an undisputed super middleweight title fight on Saturday night inside Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas. The fight has the opportunity to add to the legacy of both men as they near the end of storied runs inside the ring.
Crawford rose through the ranks to becoming one of the best pound-for-pound fighters in the sport after achieving undisputed status at both 140 and 147 pounds in 2017 and 2023, respectively.
Crawford has fought just once since a 2023 beatdown of Errol Spence Jr. to become undisputed welterweight champion. He defeated Israil Madrimov in 2024 at junior middleweight in a performance that left fans wanting more from the pound-for-pound great.

Alvarez has not exactly made fans happy in the last few years with his choice in opponents. The undisputed champ has faced the likes of unknown John Ryder, former junior middleweight champion Jermell Charlo who moved up two weight classes, fellow countrymen Jaime Munguia, a fairly undeserving Edgar Berlanga and then William Scull as a mandatory to earn his IBF title back that he was stripped of. Now, he seems to be earning back some good will with taking on a fellow pound for pound great, but Crawford is also moving up (at least) two divisions as well. However, the images from the faceoffs might tell a different story as Crawford has looked as big, if not bigger, than Alvarez throughout the build to the fight.
The undercard features some rising contenders and names to get more familiar with in the space. Callum Walsh has been pegged for greatness since he began his career in Ireland a few years ago. Now, the rising Irish star gets a showcase opportunity on a massive stage when he takes on Fernando Vargas Jr. at junior middleweight. Plus, a potential future titleholder for Alvarez or Crawford to worry about is in a featured bout when interim WBC super middleweight champion Christian M’billi takes on Lester Martinez.
