Santos Saúl Álvarez Barragán vs. Jacob Joseph Paul

Is this fight actually in the works? I could see Canelo doing this in a few years' time at the end of his career but surely not now while he's still an active world champion?

I also saw Jake Paul was gonna be fighting his brother Logan but not sure if that was BS or not.

 

I'm a huge Crawford fan and would love him to win but I gotta agree with you here.

 

Crawford should fight Scull as his tune up to aclimate him self to the weight class.
They could then fight for undisputed IF he is successful.

Canelo trying to make 300 Ms in 3 fights
Dope for him sucks for us.

 

Former Lightweight who walks around at 180 Crawford is also taller with a 4 inch reach advantage.

Duran was a former Lightweight who was dwarfed by Barkley and beat him. And the size difference between Duran/Barkley was much more apparent than Crawford/Canelo will be.

Mayweather schooled Canelo with a 15 pound weight disadvantage.

 

I'm telling you Crawford wins a decision I firmly believe it I may be wrong and we have to wait and see how effective Crawford is at the weight.

But Canelo is not an overly aggressive fighter he fights in spurts which gives Crawford more of a chance in a chess match rather than a big strong fighter swaming all over him.

Canelo's level of competition in recent years hasn't been the best either and he hasn't had a stoppage win in 4 years.

Crawford is taller with a significantly longer reach and his style of boxing will give Canelo fits.

My only issue is we haven't seen Crawford in with a real big banger so I'm still not totally sold on how good Crawford's chin actually is.

 

There is truth in the fact that Canelo is not a pure pressure fighter like a Chavez. He'll pressure when he's comfortable but he's mostly a guy that likes to use his opponents aggression against them and accurately counter punch.

The thing is, Crawford is also a natural counter puncher who is more athletic and has faster feet.

Canelo should definitely be favored when you follow the old adage "great big man beats great little man", but this honestly has all the makings of a dull match.

 

I'm wondering how many people will be stupid enough to pay to watch these clowns in this scripted circus

 

You really shouldn't spout such nonsense. Canelo walking around ar 210 Yeah right. Reminds me of people claiming that Felix T walked around at 180 and Roy Jones walking around at 250. Pure nonsense.

 

It’s a joke of a fight but I want to see Jake Paul get beaten to a pulp.

 

Jake Paul must be cashing out for mega Netflix money and dragging Canelo up to Heavyweight.

He's not ready for Canelo
