Trainer Brian “Bomac” McIntyre says his leading charge Terence Crawford is still keen on a fight with Saul “Canelo” Alvarez.
McIntyre, talking to Fight Hub, said of Crawford: “That’s probably what he wants, Canelo.
“Bud beats his ass. He outboxes him. [Weight] don’t matter. Bud’s been fighting bigger people all his life.
“It would be Errol Spence-Crawford II.”

Canelo has said he has no interest in the contest, which would match the undisputed champion at 147lbs with the undisputed champion at 168lbs, largely because of the size difference, and that it would place him in a no-win situation.
“I respect that, because you get beat by the smaller man… “ said McIntyre. “The real boxing fans know Bud can beat Canelo. He might be bigger, but he don’t got the height, he don’t got the reach. He’s got a good boxing IQ, but he doesn’t have that crazy IQ that Terence has.”
Asked about what happens when Canelo faces Jaime Munguia in Las Vegas on May 4, McIntyre predicted: “Canelo’s going to stop him. I say in 10 rounds. It’s a decent fight, but Munguia’s isn’t ready for that level yet. He hasn’t been on that level yet.”
“Devin Haney’s going to beat him because he’s got more experience, he’s been in bigger fights, and I believe he will be able to push him. Ryan’s got some speed, but Devin’s smart enough to time him.
“[Garcia should] box and move, make Devin come to him, because Devin’s usually the boxer.

“Make him get out of his comfort zone. Devin’s used to people coming to him, he’s a great boxer, he knows how to box. He knows how to box on his toes.”
