Shannon Briggs Predicts a Knockout in Canelo vs. Crawford

Former world champion Shannon Briggs shared his thoughts on the potential clash between WBA, WBC, and WBO super middleweight champion Saul "Canelo" Alvarez (62-2-2, 39 KOs) and WBA junior middleweight champion Terence Crawford (41-0, 31 KOs).

"In my opinion, Terence is coming in looking for the knockout. He’s going to push forward relentlessly, apply pressure, show his strength throughout the fight, and land powerful shots. This is what he’s been working toward his whole life.

I’ve known him since he was a kid—about 10 or 11 years old. Terence can absolutely fight in this weight class, and he’s going to win. Believe me, that’s exactly what’s going to happen," Briggs stated.

According to preliminary reports, the Canelo vs. Crawford fight is expected to take place in September.
