Terence Crawford, a renowned boxer, was recently photographed standing beside the undisputed light heavyweight champion Artur Beterbiev. The sight was quite remarkable as Crawford appeared almost of similar size to the four-belt 175-lb champion. Even during the intervals between fights, Crawford's size is truly enormous, leaving no doubt that he is 1000% prepared to take on the toughest opponents at both 168 and 175 pounds.

His Excellency Turki Alalshikh's Options

Turki Alalshikh should not restrict himself to only considering Canelo Alvarez as a potential opponent for the superstar Crawford in 2025. With Canelo showing hesitation in fighting Crawford, Turki should focus on arranging a match between Bud and the winner of the Beterbiev vs. Dmitry Bivol 2 rematch on February 22nd. The 37-year-old Crawford possesses great size and is almost three years younger than Beterbiev, who will turn 40 on January 21st.

The Significance of Beterbiev vs. Crawford

A fight between Crawford and Beterbiev would be a monumental event. Crawford, with his determination and skill, is looking to make history before retiring. If he decides to move up in weight to tangle with Alvarez at 168 pounds, why not go the extra seven pounds and challenge Beterbiev for his four titles in 2025? This would be a legacy fight that could solidify Crawford's place in boxing history.Turki could use his quick decision-making skills to cut in front of PBC and potentially arrange a match between Crawford and the winner of the February 1st fight between David Benavidez and David Morrell against the Beterbiev-Bivol 2 victor. Such a match would be an excellent opportunity for Crawford to showcase his skills against a formidable opponent like Beterbiev.

Who Wants It More?

It is clear that Crawford has been working tirelessly, like a politician running for office, in an attempt to secure a fight against Canelo. However, it is evident that the Mexican star has lost his willingness to take risks and is afraid of facing the Omaha, Nebraska native.

On the other hand, Beterbiev and Bivol are not afraid and would be willing to step into the ring with Crawford.A match between Crawford and Beterbiev would be more exciting as it would pit a slugger against a boxer. Boxing fans love to see this kind of confrontation, with both fighters going all out. In contrast, a match between Crawford and Bivol would be more of a chess match, with both boxers relying on their technical skills. While this may be interesting for some, most boxing fans prefer to see action and excitement in the ring.Crawford's journey in the boxing world is one filled with determination and a desire to achieve greatness.
