Terence Crawford Reveals Thoughts on His Future: Is Retirement on the Horizon?

Terence Crawford faces more than a formidable rival as he readies to confront Canelo Alvarez in the boxing ring shortly. He is also confronted with the lingering query surrounding his impeccable career: Is this the conclusion? At 37, Crawford prepares to leap two weight classes for what may be the most significant match of his tenure. On September 13, he will clash with the naturally larger Alvarez at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas. This showdown is being heralded as one of the most significant boxing events in recent history and will be streamed worldwide on Netflix. While Alvarez has expressed intentions to retire at 37 upon completing his contract with Turki Alalshikh, Crawford's future remains ambiguous. In a candid interview with Piers Morgan, Crawford was queried about the dangers associated with boxing, a sport that has inflicted long-lasting damage on many legends. He candidly stated, “Of course, I always say I was going to retire from boxing. I wasn’t going to let boxing retire me.”
