The fight between Saul “Canelo” Alvarez and Terence Crawford will not take place until September. However, months before the fight, the first round has already taken place outside the ring. Arab promoter and sheikh Turki Alalshikh has replaced Dana White as the main promoter of this fight, which was scheduled for Friday, September 12 at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas.
However, that weekend there are several sporting events, including a UFC event, a women’s basketball game and a college football game. This situation has not been to the liking of the Arab sheikh and it is very likely that the venue and date of the fight between Canelo vs Crawford will be modified. Turki’s first step in this direction has been to remove Dana White as promoter of this fight.

After Canelo’s victory over William Scull in early May, Saudi sponsor Turki Alalshikh announced that Canelo would face Crawford in a fight on September 12, promoted by White, who even directed a promotional “face-off” between the two pugilists.
However, due to Dana White’s lack of vision before the sporting spectacles of the same weekend in the same region, Turki Alalshikh surprised everyone when he announced that Canelo-Crawford will take place on September 13, the same day as UFC Night, and that the fight could take place somewhere outside of Las Vegas. Therefore, the Arab businessman revealed that Sela would be the main promoter of Canelo-Crawford and not White.
Where would the fight between Canelo vs Crawford take place?
The last date mentioned by Turki (September 13) should be the official day, since in the boxing calendar of the Mexican champion, he only fights in May and September, the latter to commemorate the Independence of Mexico. Saturdays are the stellar days for boxing events and for Canelo Alvarez it should be before the Patriotic Dates as has been a tradition in recent years.
Among the venues where this match could take place is the city of Los Angeles, either at the SoFi Stadium or at the Crypto.com Arena, home of the Los Angeles Lakers. However, there is no official notice of a change of venue. If it remains in Las Vegas, it would be held at an arena or casino that is available and willing to pay a very high amount of money for this event.

PFF Power Ratings Release: NFL risers and upcoming schedules ahead of Week 6
If the Texans were going to get back on track offensively, Week 5 was the week to do it: Facing a banged-up Ravens defense, C.J. Stroud threw for 245 yards and four touchdowns, earning his highest PFF grade of the season at 78.9. It also marked the biggest single-week team upgrade we've seen so far this year. Patriots with a nice upcoming stretch: Last week, we noted that one outlier game in Buffalo stood between the Pats and a much lighter schedule.

Every week of the NFL season delivers new market signals, and few tools are sharper than power ratings for cutting through the noise. PFF’s updated ratings don’t just show who’s playing well […]
