Canelo Alvarez receives blunt warning: “If you don’t fight, Dana White will cut your ass”

It is not surprising that Canelo Alvarez's projected new purse for his fight against Terence Crawford is once again stratospheric, at $150 million. What is worrying, especially for the promoters of the fight, is that the Mexican will give a poor show like the one he gave last weekend in Saudi Arabia against Cuban William Scull.While CompuBox reported the Canelo-Scull fight as the 12-round fight with the fewest combined punches in the last four decades, what was clear to locals and strangers alike is that Scull has undoubtedly been the worst opponent on the long list of 'bums' that the Mexican has 'chosen', who also in recent times has put boxing aside to concentrate solely on the pay.Canelo vs. Crawford: First Face-Off LandsDana White steps into the ring and Canelo is asleep at the wheelMarca and STN LifestyleThat 'little' detail […]
