Factor Jake Paul
The ring broke the news of X The fight against Canelo-Crawford is off. There are no reasons listed at this point. Canelo reportedly plans to fight the extremely popular YouTuber Jake Paul in May in a fight that could make crazy numbers, pausing what Canelo-Crawford would bring.
Jake Paul has 20.9 million subscribers on YouTube and 28.8 million followers on Instagram. With many people on the Canelo-Paul fighting market, it is not surprising why Canelo would like to go in that direction because of the conflict against Crawford, 37, who does not have a huge social monitoring.
Most PPV buys from Canelo-Crawford fighting from Mexican, and Crawford just brought a little thing. As such, an attempt to negotiate a fight between them would be a pure nightmare because Crawford sees himself at the Canel level, and he is not.
Canelo can make a lot more money twice against Jake Paul, then focus on the fight against David Benavidez or Arthur Beterbiev. The fight between Canel and these two popular fighters would bring a lot more to buying PPV than the one against Crawford.
Canel’s capabilities
Canelo has a few better options available to make money from fighting Crawford. Moreover, Alvarez would not be merit of beating because it moves in two grades of weight. Fans will not respect this because Crawford decided not to move to 168 to prove yourself first by running the mini-gauntlet through these three killers:
- David Benavidez
- David Morrell
- Diego Pacheco
What could be a clinch is that Crawford had already made it clear that he would follow the draft Mayweather box and movement to prevent Canelo from landing his hits. That would be such a boring struggle, and the Mexican star probably doesn’t want to chase a runner in 12 rounds.
