“Shook Up the Boxing World”: Canelo Alvarez’s Past Dominance Leads Fans to Believe Terence Crawford Will “Stay In His Division”

In 2018, after the rematch with Gennady Golovkin, Canelo Alvarez stepped inside the ring with Rocky Fielding at 168. In addition to being 12cm taller than Alvarez, Fielding had an 18cm reach advantage. Ahead of the contest, in an interview with Sky Sports, Fielding admitted that he “got this fear factor” going up against Alvarez. However, the British boxer believed his nerves would push him and subsequently allow him “all that underdog stuff“.

Contrary to Fielding’s expectation, Canelo Alvarez outperformed the former. Despite the height and reach disadvantage, the Mexican boxer was able to punish Fielding with some mean hands to the body. After the fourth time Canelo forced Fielding to take a knee, the referee intervened and called it a day.
