When asked what excites him the most about facing Canelo: “Shutting everybody up,” said Crawford through a smile.
“It happens before. You know, this is not the first time I’ve been booed. You know, so I don’t care. It’s not the first time that people went up against Terence Crawford. So, they can’t fight for him. So, it doesn’t matter to me, you know? It just puts a little more icing on the cake.”
