He is now turning his attention to Crawford.
'This fight is about legacy. I've faced the best, and now it's time to show the world why I'm still at the top. Crawford is a great fighter, but on Sept. 13, I will remind everyone who Canelo is,' he said.
Crawford (41-0, 31 KOs), from Omaha, Nebraska, is the current WBA and interim WBO middleweight champion.
He recently made a dominant debut at 154 pounds, defeating Israil Madrimov, and is aiming to secure the defining win of his career.
'I've always said I'm the best pound-for-pound fighter in the world,' he said. 'Beating Canelo, on the biggest stage, under the brightest lights, that's how I prove it. I respect him, but I'm coming to make history.'

Francisco Lindor homers, leading Mets past Giants 8-1 for fifth straight win
SAN FRANCISCO – Francisco Lindor homered in the third, Brandon Nimmo added a two-run single in the fourth, and Juan Soto drove in two runs as New York backed Clay Holmes, and the Mets beat the San Francisco Giants 8-1 on Friday night for their fifth straight win. Holmes (9-5) surrendered one run and six hits over five innings with two strikeouts and a walk for his first win in five starts since beating Atlanta on June 25. New York got on the board in a hurry against All-Star Logan Webb (9-8). Nimmo doubled leading off the game and scored on Soto's RBI groundout, while Lindor singled after Nimmo, and Pete Alonso drove him home on a sacrifice fly. Soto added an RBI single in the ninth. Webb has had back-to-back rough outings. He was tagged for a career-high tying 11 hits over six innings of a 6-3 loss at Toronto on Saturday, then gave up six runs and eight hits in four innings Friday. The Giants' lone run came on a groundout by Willy Adames in the first. New York kicked off a stretch of nine consecutive games against the NL West by extending its streak that has come on the heels of a three-game skid. The Mets are seeking their first series win in San Francisco since 2018. The Giants placed right-handed starter Landen Roupp on the 15-day injured list with inflammation in his pitching elbow, recalling righty Tristan Beck from Triple-A Sacramento. Beck relieved Webb to begin the fifth. Key play: With Adames at second with a two-out double in the third, Matt Chapman was originally ruled safe at first on a throwing error by third baseman Ronny Mauricio. But the Mets challenged the tag call, and Chapman was ruled out on replay review to end the inning. Key stat: Lindor wound up 3 for 5 with his 20th home run, a double, and three runs scored with a pair of strikeouts after snapping his 0-for-31 drought Wednesday against the Angels. Up next: LHP David Peterson (6-4, 2.90 ERA) pitches Saturday night's middle game for the Mets opposite Giants LHP Robbie Ray (9-4, 2.92) as he tries again for double-digit victories with a three-start winless stretch.

Zach Neto delivers walk-off hit in Angels' 3-2 victory over Mariners
Zach Neto capped his bobblehead giveaway night with a two-out RBI single in the 10th inning to lift the Los Angeles Angels to a 3-2 win over the Seattle Mariners on Friday night. Jose Rodriguez hit two solo homers for the Mariners, but Angels reliever Ryan Zeferjahn (6-3) escaped a two-on no-out jam in the top of the 10th, and Neto grounded his winning hit off the glove of diving second baseman Cole Young for the first walk-off hit of his career. Neto had two hits and scored a run, and Jo Adell drove in two runs for the Angels, who snapped a four-game losing streak. Mariners right-hander Casey Legumina (4-5) took the loss. Seattle starter Bryan Woo gave up two runs and four hits in six innings, striking out six and walking two. Angels starter José Soriano allowed two runs and four hits in six innings, striking out five and walking one. Rodriguez lined a 98-mph sinker from Soriano over the right-center field wall in the first for his 16th homer of the season and a 1-0 Mariners lead. Adell, who was mired in a 1-for-20 slump, lined a two-out two-run double to left in the bottom of the inning for a 2-1 lead. Rodriguez opened the sixth with a 408-foot shot to left for his fifth career multihomer game and a 2-all tie. Key Moment: With two on, Zeferjahn struck out Cal Raleigh looking with a 99-mph fastball to preserve a 2-2 tie in the 10th. Key Stat: Woo has thrown six innings or more with two or fewer walks in all 20 starts this season, the fourth-longest streak of its kind in major league history behind San Francisco's Juan Marichal (23 games in 1968), Seattle/Texas's Cliff Lee (21 games in 2010), and Arizona's Curt Schilling (21 in 2002). Up Next: Mariners RHP George Kirby (4-5 4.65 ERA) opposes Angels LHP Tyler Anderson (2-6 4.43) on Saturday night.

Quero has four hits, White Sox hit four hrs in 12-5 win over Cubs
Rookie Edgar Quero had his first four-hit game, rookie Chase Meidroth homered among his three hits, and the Chicago White Sox beat Shota Imanaga and the crosstown Cubs 12-5 on Friday night for their sixth win in seven games. Colson Montgomery, Austin Slater, and Mike Tauchman also went deep as the White Sox set season highs in runs and hits (18). Miguel Vargas also had three hits, and Lenyn Sosa drove in three runs. Adrian Houser (6-2) pitched 6 2/3 innings of five-hit ball as the White Sox handed the Cubs their fourth loss in five games. Reese McGuires's three-run homer off Houser with two outs in the seventh finally put the Cubs on the board after trailing 11-0. The last-place White Sox gained a measure of revenge against the contending Cubs, who swept a three-game series at Wrigley Field in May while outscoring them 26-8. The Cubs remained one game behind first-place Milwaukee in the NL Central. Imanaga (7-4) exited after the first two White Sox batters hit safely in the fourth to give the South Siders a 6-0 lead with 12 hits against him. The left-hander from Japan was charged with seven runs, and his outing matched his shortest in two years in the majors. Houser retired the first eight Cubs batters en route to winning his fourth straight decision. Key moment: The White Sox jumped ahead 3-0 in the first as five of their first six batters hit safely, including Meidroth's home run to lead off the inning. The White Sox added two in the second with Montgomery tagging a center-cut fastball followed by three singles. The South Siders upped it to 9-0 in the fourth on Tauchman's drive. Key stat: Imanaga has pitched fewer than four innings only once before in 43 games in the majors. He lasted three in an 11-1 loss to the Mets on June 21, 2024, when he allowed 10 runs and 11 hits. Up next: Cubs RHP Cade Horton (3-3, 4.04 ERA) faces White Sox RHP Aaron Civale (2-6, 4.76) on Saturday.
