Every year, boxing delivers those epic, long-awaited fights that fans can’t stop talking about. From Tyson Fury vs. Oleksandr Usyk to Ryan Garcia vs. Gervonta Davis, these bouts are the ones that get everyone hyped and help define who’s the true king of the ring. Now, the next big one is Terence Crawford vs. Canelo Alvarez, a fight fans are buzzing about. But ahead of the fight, Joe Rogan has raised a major concern for Crawford, adding some extra hype to this already huge matchup.
When news broke about Alvarez potentially facing Crawford, Rogan weighed in on the fight during a recent episode of The Joe Rogan Experience podcast with comedian Brian Simpson. Rogan discussed Canelo’s power and size, noting that it could create problems for Crawford. Famous Podcaster added that he hoped Crawford would be able to withstand Canelo’s strength, highlighting how hard the Mexican fighter hits.
He said, “I just hope he’s big enough. I hope he’s big enough to keep that dude off him because Canelo hits so hard man… And I think he’s that good, he’s just so skillful, he’s so slick and he’s also the best guy in the sport at switch-hitting. He’ll go from southpaw to orthodox and be just as good.”
Both Canelo Alvarez and Terence Crawford are undoubtedly among the best boxers of this generation, making it tough to pick who stands out as the greatest. Canelo has already proven himself as one of the hardest hitters in the sport, but it’ll be interesting to see if Crawford, ranked pound-for-pound number two, can take and deliver that same level of power in the ring.
