Trainer Manny Robles surprised everyone by predicting that Terence Crawford will defeat Saul "Canelo" Alvarez and take the undisputed super middleweight championship from him on September 13 in Las Vegas.

In an interview with Fino Boxing, Robles indicated that inactivity could affect Crawford against Canelo Alvarez, but believes his ring skills will help him win.

As far as Crawford getting knocked out, I don't see it. He's too elusive, too crafty, too crafty, and too smart. He can fight from the orthodox style, from a southpaw stance, and he's a complete fighter. For me, he's one of the best pound-for-pound fighters in the world. I understand that activity does matter. So that could come back and affect Crawford, but he's a very skilled fighter, he said. On the other hand, Canelo has stayed active and is a big fighter. He's a super middleweight. You have to carry someone like that for 12 rounds. It's extremely difficult. It's a 50-50 fight. It's a draw. Skill for skill, I'm giving Crawford the win; I think everyone agrees. As far as weight, strength, and obviously activity, that counts too. Canelo can cause problems for anyone, he added.

According to some experts' predictions, Terence Crawford will be at a disadvantage due to his weight and will not be able to defeat the Mexican, but others believe that size will not be an issue, since the American has the necessary skills to beat the 168-pound champion on his own ground.

After the fight with Cuban William Scull, where the Mexican fighter was criticized for his lackluster performance, many experts in the sport have changed their opinion and see Bud with real opportunities to win because they think the Guadalajara native is in decline.

If the American wins, he would become a three-time undisputed champion in different weight classes. weight and would make history in the sport, while Canelo Alvarez could end Crawford's undefeated record and send him into retirement.

Terence Crawford, 38, became a four-division champion by defeating Israil Madrimov and remains one of the best pound-for-pound fighters. The American undisputed two-time champion now has 41 wins, 31 of them by knockout.

Meanwhile, Saul 'Canelo' Alvarez, 34, became the undisputed super middleweight champion for the second time after defeating William Scull and now has a career record of 63 wins (39 by knockout), two losses and two draws.
