Crawford is going to produce one of the best displays of pure boxing

I agree totally. To add onto to what you were saying, I read a Breadman Edwards article a while back where he was asked what each P4Per’s best skill was and he said that Crawford’s was “threading the needle” as he called it. Crawford is exemplary at picking out openings to land while you are throwing and, for the most part, can avoid return fire if he’s focused. Another one of his best qualities is his spitefulness as well though, which is great for finishing guys off once he has them hurt, but isn’t so good when he goes gunning for the knockout without setting it up or just looks to brawl. I think the latter trait could be his downfall and I think he lacks the discipline and the legs at his age to box and move for 12 rounds. He’s just not that kind of fighter, which everyone seems to be forgetting, including Breadman who’s picking Crawford and is even giving Bud a chance of stopping Canelo, which to me seems absurd.

 

He just did. Good call.

 

Canelo is just not that good. Every time he fought a great boxer, he got exposed. He avoided challenges for years and never gave the good fighters a chance. Years of cherry picking created the illusion that he's a better fighter than he really is.

He should have fought Benevidez when he had the chance instead of suffering though this embarrassing defeat.

 

He's very good but falls short of the very elite.

 

Masterclass by Bud!

 

welp, you weren’t wrong.

 

Absolutely.. I think Canelo is cherry picking and Terence came to take away his cherry picking... I think Benavidez would have knocked Canelo out.. I think Canelo avoided it.. and I think he should have fought Charlo at 160... but Canelo was always fighting big names and looking for greatness... much love for him for that.. but Terence would not have gone up if Benavidez were champion

 

Well he was slick enough. Yeah he gets clipped with shots but he's rolling with shots, taking away it's power to land flush shots of his own.

James Toney too was willing to take glancing shots to land cleaner, harder counters. Yet everyone acknowledges his defensive prowess.

Is he as slick as Whitaker or Mayweather, no he isn't but he's a more deadly counter puncher and we saw how that discouraged Canelo. Don't need to make them miss if you make them reluctant to throw.

 

With this statement, like Bud, you took a great risk, for a shot a greatness. Well done

 

Good call.

 

Actually, no.
For her, a points defeat is much better than being dropped.Unlike Crawford, Benavidez would have went after her, better believe it.
And we know she's a *****.and would have soiled her pants out of fear.

 

I hope you learned something today. Canelo was the perfect style match up for Crawford. Like Roger Mayweather says. Most people don't know **** about boxing.

 

Best Displays of running all night long

Far too much excessive running and avoiding engagement.

 

It was not one fo the best displays of pure boxing, but it was enough to clearly win a fight that I though it was impossible to win. He's just amazing.

I still cant believe he did that at 38.

 

Yeah he moved up 13 pounds at nearly 38 years old and won without making any EXCUSES about age or weight like unlike when Rigondeaux moved up a paltry 7 pounds and got his ass kicked by Lomachenko

That's what great fighters do, no excuses.
