As mentioned recently Amir Khan knows more about this big fight between Canelo Alvarez and Terence Crawford on September 13th than most.
The former world champion from the UK has fought both of them after all.
Losing to both by stoppage. He stepped up in weight to take on Canelo as well, like Crawford is doing next week.
Amir Khan Goes Controversial In His Canelo vs Crawford Take
Speaking to Ring Magazine Khan said on the big fight next week:
“I feel Crawford’s the fresher fighter and might edge it because I don’t see that fire in Canelo’s belly anymore.”
A slightly controversial take from Khan who like anyone is entitled to change his pick or view on the fight.
He knows what he is talking about though and motivation will of course be important in such a fight, and an event as this.
Who wants it more? That age old equation in anything.
It rings true in professional boxing more than most sports.
If Crawford wants to win more, he might.
It comes down to out of the two fighters who wants to win more in some ways, and strategy and how it goes on the night as well.
Canelo helped Amir Khan at the time earn some good money at the time but Alvarez has done much bigger numbers than that of course.
