Santos Saúl Álvarez Barragán vs. Terence Allan Crawford, Jr.

Like in his last fight against William Scull the chap Conor Benn made quit in sparring?

 

Buzzing now, hope its a great fight and not one where two top guys are so skilled they cancel each other out.

I rate both boxers highly so may the best man win, been back and forth on them all week.

 

If GGG couldn't get to Canelo's body, then Crawford sure as **** won't. Canelo is exemplary at countering body shots.

 

No, Bud is not Plant. But he’s also not a natural at this weight — just added bulk to a smaller, more slender frame. Style-wise I see it being a somewhat similar fight as in how it plays out.

I don’t think Bud is going to wear down Canelo with body shots, no. But I think Canelo can use his body attack and greater natural size/strength to wear down Bud.

We’ll see soon enough.

 

It makes sense. Imho the very moment Crawford realises that canelo is not hurt by his punches and that canelo's punches are too heavy, he will take the bike the rest of the fight. That's why I think it is UD for canelo and not KO. Crawford is an extraordinary talent, I'm pretty sure he has no problem at all fighting not to be ko'd.

 

Bud’s skills level is different. Comparing lil g’s skills level with Bud is disrespectful. Bud is digital whereas lil g is analogue that is is the contrast.

 

Erroll Spence my guy is a great body puncher a very highly skilled pressure who alongside Bivol had the best jab in the business and you know what Bud did to him with his multi dimensional offence. The thing is Bud is in position to hurt whilst you can’t get to him and he hits hard. Anybody who think Canelo can walk through. Bud’s shots is dreaming and like Canelo is in for a rude awakening.

 

Canelo is low volume, flat footed, and has not scored a KO in a while. He has lost at least twice as many fights as his resume tells. The only question is, can Crawford be comfortable in his first fight at this weight?

I think Crawford can TKO Canelo.

 

Sorry, I think I missed the part where Spence was fighting at SMW.

 

Skills win fights not size.

 

It's really arrogant to tell somebody they don't know boxing, just because they have a different opinion on how they see a fight going. I see this all the time on here and it annoys me. None of us are psychics, and no one truly knows how a fight may play out. Boxers can fight each other twice, and beat each other in two completely different fights. Sometimes two ex-boxer pundits disagree, do they not know boxing?

This is one of those fights where you can imagine EVERY scenario happening. Which is what makes it so damn exciting. I LOVE these types of fights.

 

Maybe in neverland. Go and tell that to Brook.

 

This could totally happen but I hope it doesn't. We'll see.

 

2 weights up is insane for someone being 38 yo.
