Is Canelo Álvarez vs Terence Crawford free on Netflix?
When Netflix dipped its toes in the world of sports live streaming, viewers dubbed it a turning point for the better. If we remember correctly, hell broke loose with Mike Tyson squaring off against YouTuber Jake Paul last November.
Now, Netflix is prepping for round two with Canelo Álvarez vs Terence Crawford coming up next. But since it’s hard to keep up with the streamer’s shenanigans, we understand if you’ve questions before the big showdown, especially about whether the live-streaming is free.
The super showdown between Saul Canelo Álvarez and Terence Crawford will take place this weekend in Las Vegas at Allegiant Stadium, with the former defending his uncontested super-middleweight titles. Crawford has signed himself up for a rather daring initiative, having already clutched gold at lightweight, super-lightweight, and welterweight.
In fact, he won a super-welterweight most recently against Israil Madrimov at the beginning of August, becoming an official four-weight world champion. Besides these statistics, he additionally flaunts an undisputed record (41-0, 31 knockouts), also in the queue. On the other hand, Álvarez (63-2-2, 39 knockouts) is a former super-welterweight, middleweight, and light-heavyweight champion.
So, if anything, this fight will be one for the books, and Netflix knows it. The main card kicks off at 1am BST on Sunday, which is 17.00 PT, 19.00 CT, and 20.00 ET on Saturday, September 13th. The main event starts around 4.00am BST on Sunday, which is 20.00 PT, 22.00 CT, and 23.00 ET on Saturday.
Netflix has shouldered the responsibility to live-stream Canelo Álvarez vs Terence Crawford exclusively across the globe. And no, it’s not a pay-per-view event. Users don’t need to shell out extra money to witness this history-making match. The live stream is free for all Netflix subscribers globally, meaning that for those with high hopes and anticipation, the streamer has only good news for you.
So, if your weekend plans looked dull so far, it’s time to lighten up because neither Álvarez nor Crawford is going without a fight.
