By Undisputed super middleweight world champion Saul “Canelo” Alvarez and American challenger Terence Crawford faced off for one last time before their blockbuster bout at a raucous ceremonial weigh-in on Friday.
Both were 167.5 pounds (75.9kg), half a pound under the super middleweight limit, at the closed-door official weigh-in on Friday morning.
Mexico’s Alvarez, 35, and Crawford, 37, squared off for a staredown of several seconds before they were separated by Dana White, the mastermind of UFC who has teamed with Saudi Arabia’s Riyadh Season to promote the fight that will be streamed globally by Netflix.
