Canelo Alvarez hails Terence Crawford as a superior fighter to Floyd Mayweather

Canelo Alvarez hailed Terence Crawford as a superior fighter to Floyd Mayweather after being comprehensively outclassed by the American in Las Vegas. Crawford, jumping up three divisions from welterweight, outboxed the Mexican over 12 rounds at Allegiant Stadium to become the first man to hold undisputed titles in three weight classes. Speaking in his post-fight press conference, Alvarez ranked Crawford above Mayweather, the first man to beat him, as he reflected on a one-sided night.
