Terence Crawford’s Next Move: Vergil Ortiz Jr. Speculates on The Future of the Boxing Star and a Potential 160-Pound Matchup

Vergil Ortiz Jr. Says That If Terence Crawford Moves to 160, The Two of Them Can Meet in That Weight Class Once He’s Free Fights He’s Got. He doesn’t think Crawford Can Still Make 154 After Bulking Up for The Canelo Alvarez Fight Last Saturday.

“Hey Said Held at 160. If He Wait For Wait For Me, It Would Be At 160, And It Makes Sense,” Said Vergil Ortiz Jr. to Boxing King Media About Terence Crawford Saying He Might Down to Middleweight Next.

Ortiz Jr. Has a full schedule His Fight Against Erickson Lubin 8. After that, there’s a chance he could go jaron ennis in Early 2026. He’s not going to be a free fora for a crawford for a while.

“The Way His Body has changed at His Fight at 164, I’m Able to Make 154 Again. If It Were to Happen, And I Hope It Does, It’ll Be at 160,” Said Ortiz Jr. About His Hope for A Fight Against Crawford.

Vergil Jr. Shouldn’t Get Hopes Up Because Crawford Didn’t His Mention His Possibility His Next Fight. If He Does Move Down to 160, It Would Be The Middleweight Champions to Allow Him to Collect Another Belt to Belt to Belt to Belt Champion.

Fans Believe These Are The Four Options Crawford Will Pick From His Next Fight:

• Canelo alvarez (rematch)
• Dmitry Bivol
• David Benavidez
• Jaron Ennis

If Crawford Is Hope For A Canelo Rematch At Some Point In The Future, He’s Not Going To Take A Risky Fight Against Anyone Dangerous.

“He Took Canolo’s Strengths, And He Neutralized Them,” Said Ortiz.

Crawford Did What He Usually Does, Countering, Jabbing, And Moving A Lot. He used more Movement Against Canelo Than He Had in His Last Three Fights. He Had Because He didn’t want to get walked down and nailed while Alvarez was still Fresh. He didn’t Fight Aggressively Until Late In The Contest After Canelo Had Tired.

It wasn’t an Action-packed Fight Like The Undercard Contest Between the WBC Interim Super Middleweight Champion Christian Marti and Lester Martinez. That Match Stole from The Show From The Main Event and Was on the One Gem on Duds of the Lackluster Card. Turki AlalShikh Usually Packages With Great Undercards His Riyadh Season Events, But not this time.

It’s Unlear If His Rationale Was Stack With The Undercard Low-Level Opposition So It Would Make The Canele Vs. Crawford Fight Look Better Than It Was. It didn’t work. That Fight Was Still A Bore To Watch, Primarily Due To Crawford’s Running.
