Undisputed super middleweight champion Saul βCaneloβ Alvarez had been linked to a huge clash with fellow pound-for-pound star Terence Crawford despite the huge difference in weight.
Canelo was asked about a possible meeting with Crawford and responded bluntly.
He replied: βNo.β
He then went on to explain exactly why he has no interest in the fight.
βThey criticised me because I fought [Jermell] Charlo who gained weight, who is bigger than me, because Iβm a small fighter for these weights, and because he gained weight, but they didnβt criticise him when I went up in weight.

He continued: βSo now if you imagine Crawford as a welterweight. 168lbs, I have everything to lose and nothing to gain because if I win, theyβll say, βOh, he was too small, and everything!β
Crawford hasnβt fought since his emphatic victory over Errol Spence Jr. in July of 2023.
Meanwhile Canelo is set to return to action on May 4th .
