Saul 'Canelo' Alvarez shoves Terence Crawford as they go head-to-head again before Las Vegas fight

Saul 'Canelo' Alvarez shoves Terence Crawford as they go head-to-head again before Las Vegas fight

Saul 'Canelo' Alvarez shoved Terence Crawford as tempers flared at the latest press conference for their Las Vegas fight.

Crawford marched across the stage and attempted to force Canelo to give ground, prompting a firm push from the Mexican star that led to a brief altercation between entourages for both fighters and security staff in New York.

The American had adopted a more aggressive approach in the press conference, insisting that he is 'hunting' Canelo in their undisputed super-middleweight world title fight on September 13.

Crawford says he is going to keep it real and hunt everything that he's got, and he is going to take it come September 13.

Crawford, who is a four-weight world champion, has vowed to inflict a crushing loss on his hugely popular opponent.

He says he wants all the people in the stands who booed him to cry when they go home.

Canelo, who has also conquered four weight classes, was forced to go the distance in his last fight, an uneventful points win over the elusive William Scull in May, and has requested a smaller ring for the Crawford clash.

Crawford is stepping up two weight divisions to face Canelo after defeating Israil Madrimov by unanimous decision at super-welterweight last August.
