Promoter Oscar De La Hoya, who seems to have lost his most-favored-promoter status with boxing's most powerful person, Turki Alalshikh, has resorted to bad-mouthing one of Alalshikh's pet boxing projects for this fall. Alalshikh recently announced a superfight between world super middleweight champion Saul "Canelo" Alvarez and WBA junior middleweight champion Terence "Bud" Crawford for September 12th in Las Vegas. De La Hoya, who formerly promoted Alvarez before their falling out, posted the following comment on social media; "So hear me out. Crawford will be 38. And Canelo is 35. Crawford hasn’t fought in a year and got exposed by [Ismail] Madrimov in my opinion. Canelo has been getting exposed for the past few years. Can anyone please explain to me how this is the 'biggest fight in boxing'?" Facts: Crawford clearly defeated Madrimov, a reigning champion  in a competitive fight in 2024. Alvarez has not had a knockout since 2021 but is on a six-fight winning streak.
