Terence Crawford coy on retirement

Max Kellerman got into the ring to chat with Terence Crawford after his big win.

The boxing analyst asked Crawford if he plans to retire from boxing after beating Canelo Alvarez.

“I don’t know,” the pound-for-pound number one replied.

“I gotta sit down with my team and we’ll talk about it.”

Canelo opened the door for a rematch without calling for it outright during his post-fight interview.

“I feel great to share the ring with great fighters like him,” Alvarez said.

“If we do it again, it’s going to be great.”
