I Don’t Doubt Him: Leon Edwards Gives Winning Prediction On Terence Crawford vs Canelo Alvarez

Leon Edwards is a huge boxing fan, and he is already looking forward to the undisputed super middleweight mega-fight, Terence Crawford vs Canelo Alvarez.

Edwards has not fought since a submission loss to Sean Brady on the last UFC London card in March this year.

Already, legends from across the boxing world have had their say, with many, including Shannon Briggs, predicting a late stoppage for the Omaha fighter.

And ‘Rocky’ has edged towards the American pound-for-pound star for this bout.

Speaking to Carl Froch, he said: “Crawford, he is the better boxer, but I feel like the size and the power and the natural weight (Canelo), I don’t know.

“From what he did to Spence I stopped doubting him… I feel like this fight I can’t go against him.”

The 33-year-old knows what a memorable performance is like after his crowning KO win against Kamaru Usman.

He will be hoping to see another masterclass from the modern great but understands the task that is in his way.

Edwards said: “He is the better boxer skill for skill, but Canelo is just Canelo, he is a powerhouse.”
