Canelo will definitely be favoured by the fans. And it is absolutely true that a lot of people know him, even the casual fans as well. But Crawford especially when compared to Canelo is definitely a little less popular in my opinion. But just because we are comparing which fighter is going to have bigger support, does not mean that the fight is not going to be interesting. The fight is really going to be interesting and both of them will be able to bring a lot of people to see this fight. It is I think we can say that this is a much-anticipated fight and the pay-per-view is surly going to be big for this one, if this happens, of course.
There is no need to have such comparison because we all know that Canelo have his whole country to back him in every fight he had, and he will have in the future while Crawford doesn't have that much as the whole USA is somehow divided because they also have their own picks and some of the fans from the US are also backing Canelo.
If only this fight will be determined by how many fans they have, I won't be surprised if Canelo got twice or thrice than Crawford. But since it won't be judged that way, there is only one way to find out and that is to let this two fight.
If these two end up fighting, it is surely going to be a bigger support for Canelo. And that is probably going to give him a good boost of confidence. Definitely, he is going to be the better fighter if this fight happens. But that is the bigger question, if this fight is going to happen or not.
The people in the USA cannot even decide if they are a man or a woman. And how can they decide which fighter to support? LOL. Jokes aside, I am not saying that people cannot have preferences of their own. But the people of the USA are not such a big fan of Crawford, as the Mexican people support Canelo.
Boost of confidence in-terms of the amount of people that will be supporting him in case their fight will be pushed through but it's still hard to say if it will happen or not because Canelo is still deciding whether he will accept the invitation or not because a fight against Crawford will not give him any benefits aside from the money that will on the pot once it will materialize. But for Crawford, he surely got nothing to lose because he doesn't have anything on that weight class aside from his record that is on the line.
And with the money reason I guess if it's really huge and both camps will negotiate in closing the deal maybe the fight can be pushed to happen, though you have valid reason in both sides for Canelo more on money and additional hypes to his career, while with Crawford it will have a much more favorable side if ever that he will win.
Let see if Canelo's camp will be willing to give Crawford a chance to fight him and see if whoever will be the winner, but money wise both will generate a decent amount of money.
We will likely get some more news regarding about this before this year ends, we still have a few months left so there might be some interesting things to happen. Hopefully!
I think Canelo will have to weigh his situation first because of now, he is just viewed as a trophy because he is kind of cracked already and most boxers who have what it takes will take their chances because a fight against Canelo will indeed generate them a good money and of course, those precious belts that he is holding and that is all he has left.
