Canelo VS Crawford NY Press Conference for Sept 13th 2025 Mega Fight @ Las Vegas

Following the kickoff press conference, Canelo Alvarez and Terence Crawford host the second leg of a three-city press tour at the Jacob Javits Convention Center in New York on June 22 2025.

The two fighters preview their highly anticipated matchup, with the undisputed super middleweight title on the line.

Mexico’s Canelo (63-2-2, 39 KOs) and Crawford (41-0, 31 KOs) of Omaha, NE battle it out on September 13 at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas. The contest, featuring two four-division champions, airs live on Netflix.

Two-time undisputed 168-pound champion Canelo makes the first defense of his title during his second reign. Two-division undisputed champion Crawford looks to collect all major belts in his third weight class.

The undisputed super middleweight king Alvarez (63-2-2, 39 KOs) concurs, and he’s anticipating that his Sept. 13 superfight against Terence Crawford (41-0, 31 KOs) will be anything but boring at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas on Netflix.

“I agree with Turki Alalshikh. People want to see good fights,” Alvarez told reporters during the press tour announcing his fight. “People come to spend money to see great fights and if the other fighter comes to run on the night and doesn’t make a good fight, it’s deceptional. Alalshikh and I talked after the Scull fight about that. It’s very sad.”

Alvarez went on to label Crawford as a top-six opponent in his career and believes it’ll be an entertaining night.

“We expect a great fight, the fight of the century, right?” said Alvarez. “I’m going to win the fight.” Thousands of fans were in attendance at the New York Press Conference, during Fanatics Fest NYC at Javits Center -2025.

Guests on Dias included: Turki Alalshikh, Voice of Boxing, Michael Buffer, Dana White, UFC President and Promoter of the fight, Announcer Max Kellerman, Richard Schaffer, Boxing Promoter and advisor to Canelo, Eddy Reynoso long-time trainer and manager of boxing superstar Canelo Alvarez, Terence Crawford’s trainer, Brian ‘BoMac’ McIntyre, Nick Khan, WWE President and of course the legends of Boxing, Canelo Alvarez and Terrance Crawford.

A lot of people are making many predictions and have so much to say about this fight, as being a former fighter, fan, writer and boxing historian, my prediction will be this is one of the best fight in the last ten years and I believe this will be a 50% 50% fight either man can win.

ICE Protest’s at 26 Federal Plaza NYC-2025

BY: Adal Hussain, Chief  Editor. 26 Federal Plaza NYC 10007, June 9th 2025

A large anti-ICE protest took place in New York City on June 9, 2025, with a focus on 26 Federal Plaza, which houses both federal immigration offices and one of the city’s three immigration courts.

The protest was concentrated around 26 Federal Plaza and Foley Square in Lower Manhattan.

Demonstrators protested against the Trump administration’s immigration crackdown and increased ICE enforcement actions, including the detention of migrants attending court hearings.

Protesters gathered for rallies, speeches, and marches through the streets. Chants like “Abolish ICE” and “ICE out of NYC” were heard. Some people carried signs and flags, including Mexican and Palestinian flags.

Seven individuals were arrested during an “ICE out of NYC” demonstration held near 26 Federal Plaza on the evening of June 9 2025.

Trump Tower Protest: Earlier in the day on June 9, a separate protest involving about two dozen people took place in the lobby of Trump Tower, leading to around 24 arrests.

The protests in New York City were part of a wider series of demonstrations across the U.S. in response to concerns about immigration enforcement, including actions that led to protests and curfews in Los Angeles.

ICE has spent the past three weeks staking out immigration courthouses, arresting people attending regular court hearings — often in their attempt to apply for asylum — in the hallways, lobbies and even bathrooms of the court buildings.

It has been the epicenter of ICE activity of the past few weeks, and the street outside has been a locus for demonstrations in recent days.

Tuesday’s protest was the largest yet, with several hundred people gathering on either side of Duane Street, which is closed off to all but federal vehicles.

The demonstrators were met with dozens of NYPD officers from the Strategic Response Group on either side of the roadway.

As demonstrators tried to block the entrance to the street, NYPD officers forced their way into the crowd and pushed protesters onto adjacent sidewalks, making several aggressive arrests.
