Fans have reacted to the Canelo Alvarez vs. Terence Crawford card.

The two boxers headline an undisputed super middleweight title fight on September 13. Canelo became undisputed for a second time by beating William Scull in his last fight. Meanwhile, Crawford moves up two weight classes to take on Alvarez for the chance to become a three-weight undisputed champion. He enters the fight with a win over Israil Madrimov, which made him the WBA champ at 154. Here is a look at the undercard bouts.

Ivan Dychko, the 35-year-old Kazakh has an undefeated record 15-0 record. As a 6’9″ heavyweight, he possesses a rare physical advantage, but at 35, he has limited time to prove he is a legitimate threat in the division. He is also facing a seasoned pro in Jermaine Franklin. Since his back-to-back losses to Dillian Whyte and Anthony Joshua, he has racked up two wins in a row.

Steven Nelson has a 20-1 record. He suffered his first loss in his last fight, coming out second best to Diego Pacheco. Prior to that loss, he had stopped seven out of his previous eight opponents. Meanwhile, Santana recently secured back-to-back split decision wins over Marquis Moore and Lorenzo Simpson. However, with a 12-4-0 record, he faces a tough test. Here were the rest of the match-ups.
