What have the fighters said?Canelo Alvarez: "Don't get me wrong, he's a great fighter, (but) like I say, he's not Canelo. Obviously, I've been in this situation for a long time, and I have the experience. They only focus on my power, but I have more than that. I think this fight is going to be one of the best fights in my history, in my record, and I'm very excited. I'm very excited and motivated because I want to make history, and I'm very excited for this fight."
Terence Crawford: "I called Canelo out because, like I said, he's the last great fighter amongst the era that surpassed us - the Floyd, the Pacquiao, the De La Hoya. We both came up in that era, and he was right there with those fighters. And he got the chance to fight the Miguel Cottos, the Floyd Mayweathers, the (Sergey) Kovalevs and the Triple G's (Gennady Golovkin). I wasn't able to get those mega fights. So this is my mega fight, this is my moment, and that's the reason why I want to fight an all-time great like Canelo."
