Canelo Alvarez and Terence Crawford officially weighed in at 167.5 pounds ahead of Saturday’s highly anticipated showdown in Las Vegas.

Both champions hit the scale without issue, ensuring there would be no last-minute drama before the main event.

The real drama occurred off-stage as an exclusive video from Daily Mail reveals a fierce altercation erupting among spectators at T-Mobile Arena.

A small group of fans can be seen exchanging brutal blows in the lower bowl of the arena with security nowhere to be seen.

Several participants donned Canelo apparel and sombreros as the situation momentarily spiraled into disarray. Eventually, the commotion was quelled, refocusing the attention back to the event.

Canelo, a champion in four weight divisions with victories in both super middleweight and light heavyweight categories, appeared polished and self-assured, showcasing the grace of an experienced professional.

Meanwhile, Crawford – undefeated and holding the WBO titles at welterweight and junior middleweight – appeared calm yet intensely focused, demonstrating why he is regarded as one of the sport’s elite fighters.

Immediately following the weigh-in, the fighters faced off for the final time before the bout. The atmosphere was electric, with fans, media, and famous faces watching on.

Both men looked locked in, intense, and fully focused, yet there was a mutual respect visible in the stare-down. They nodded, waved to their supporters, and exited the stage, ready for what promises to be a memorable clash.

There is no doubt who the crowd are supporting this weekend. The Mexican flags were out in full force and the Canelo chants were deafening.

But, that didn’t stop Crawford from soaking up the atmosphere. He seemed to enjoy riling up his opponent’s fan base – blowing kisses to the crowd with a smirk on his face.

The significance of this fight cannot be overstated. A win for Canelo would further cement his status as one of boxing’s all-time greats, adding another elite opponent to his resume and strengthening his claim to the top of pound-for-pound rankings.

For Crawford, a victory would be a career-defining moment, demonstrating that he can compete with and defeat a fighter of Canelo’s calibre in a high-profile, cross-weight division bout.

Analysts have spent weeks debating how the two styles will clash. Canelo’s aggressive, body-attacking style and championship experience are likely to test Crawford’s defensive skills, while Crawford’s speed, range, and counterpunching ability could frustrate Álvarez and potentially dictate the pace of the fight.

Both fighters have a history of adjusting mid-fight, suggesting Saturday’s contest could be as much a battle of wits as of raw power.

The weigh-in also offered a glimpse at the fighters’ preparation leading up to the fight. 

Canelo appeared in peak condition, lean and powerful, reflecting his disciplined training camp and experience cutting weight safely. Crawford looked equally sharp, with a focused demeanour that underscored his strategic approach to the matchup.

With both men officially making weight, all eyes now turn to the ring.

This is more than just a fight. It is a collision of two of boxing’s elite, a moment that could define the careers of both fighters and leave a lasting mark on the sport.

Saturday night promises to deliver high drama, explosive action, and potentially a new chapter in boxing history.
