Crawford's Next Fight: Al-Sheikh Orders "Be Ready" - But Against Whom?

Spread the love

Turki Al Sheik to Terence Crawford “Be ready.” For the next fight. The Nebraska native isn’t saying who or when he’ll fight for the “next fight.” “Call me,” Crawford said.

Ideally, that would mean Turkey would fight the winner of Crawford’s David Benavidez vs. David Morrell match to earn his retirement against Canelo Alvarez.

The next move

It just has to be, because Crawford needs to fight the number one guy first at 168 to make a matchup with Canelo look more credible. If this is a fight, Crawford will have to do something strong Get these battle ribbons To become a decorated soldier:

– Medal of Honor
– Distinguished Service Cross

You don’t get those. Military medals As Crawford did, he went from a narrow, narrow victory over Israel Madrimov at 154 to a golden parachute retirement against Canelo. Oh, that’s not how it should be. If Terrence wants his military medals, he must fight these battles to show that they should be worn on his chest during the parade in Omaha, Nebraska.

– David Benavidez
– David Morrell
– Christian Mbilli
– Dmitry Bivol
– Artur Beterbiev
– Diego Pacheco

Terence wants the medals they didn’t earn in battle. You can’t respect that. Weak and incorrect. If he wants to be next Audie Murphymust earn a war ribbon.

Crawford must earn the fight against Canelo Alvarez by walking through real battlefield conditions, taking shots and shots, and facing the horrors of battle to earn the honor of being in the ring with the king of the sport.

Turki Al Sheik has to call Crawford and tell him he needs to do something heroic to get the chance to make his legacy a reality, not just to get a big payday, but to return to Omaha with the money after he loses.

Recently, the 38-year-old Crawford (41-0, 31 KOs) fights only once a year. So, if he keeps his minimal schedule, his next fight will be against Canlo Alvarez in September. That’s assuming Turkey doesn’t ask for the Canelo-Crawford fight on the Cinco de Mayo holiday weekend in May this year.
